Now there’s even more reason to get your family into the volunteering spirit! Disney’s new “Give a Day, Get a Disney Day” program is offering free admission to either Disneyland or Walt Disney World for 1 million guests who complete a day of volunteer service over the next year. You can sign up for the program at the Disney website!

Will you and your family participate? What are your favorite ways to give back to your community?

According to BabyCenter, more and more couples are taking a romantic vacation together in the hopes of conceiving a child. They have named it a “conceptionmoon,” and state that most conceptionmooners are in their thirties, have been trying to get pregnant for about eight months and are super busy with family and work-related responsibilities.

Many experts agree that stress can prevent you from getting pregnant, and a mini-vacation can be a great way to relax together. So would you ever consider a conceptionmoon? Where would you go? Could you completely unplug yourself from your iPhone and email? Do you think a conceptionmoon is a great idea for couples who want to conceive, or does it feel like overkill? You tell us!

One of my best memories as a child were the times I spent camping with my family. It’s a great way to bond with your kids and a creative way to celebrate their birthday. Here are a few ways to help you get ready for fun, fall nights, roasting marshmallows and camping under the stars.

1) There are specific camping equipment made for kids. Check out some of these cool camping gear. (Kids Dome Camping Tent and Youth Glow-in-the-Dark Solar Quad Chair from Coleman.)

2) Then, before you go make sure to test out all your equipment and gear outside or inside of your home.

3) Don’t forget to pack the essentials such as lots of water, sunscreen and an emergency kit. These are from REI.

4) Choose somewhere nearby and make sure to find out if you’ll need to obtain a permit to camp there.

5) Have fun with food! Check out Familyfun.com for recipes from everything from s’mores and trail mix to pan-fried trout! Yum!

6) And if you’re throwing a camping birthday party or just a casual gathering with family and friends, send out one of these fun, party invitations.
