Cookies, Badges and Lessons in Diversity

Last week I had intended on writing a blog post about the Girl Scouts. It was going to be about how they are celebrating 100 years of scouting this year and one of the coolest things we would see from Girl Scouts would be an overhaul of their badges. Last year over at SheHeroes I […]

Inspiring Whenever and Wherever We Can

Of the different things I do at my kid’s school throughout the year my favorite is by far volunteering in the library twice a week. Once with each of my children’s classes. One weekly visit with my son’s third grade class and one visit with my daughter’s first grade class.

SheHeroes at Sea

A really interesting story went viral today. We of course couldn’t help but spread the story ourselves by posting it on Facebook. It was the story of Jeanne Baret, a pioneering botanist, and the first woman to circle the globe. Not that we knew that until recently…

Sheheroes in the South Pole

One of the fun parts of celebrating Christmas and Santa today is by following Santa’s trip around the world on Christmas Eve via Norad (you can check it out on Facebook, Twitter or via the website). But I recently discovered someone even cooler whose adventures are not only even more amazing but very real that […]

Girly Legos - The Gateway Toy

Now I have to admit that I am the first one to roll my eyes at Lego’s whole new girl targeted line of “Girl Legos." I wish so much that Legos could just be Legos and girls and boys who like Legos could play with them without feeling the need to label them as a boy […]

She Can Do Anything

Last week on Facebook you may have seen the fabulous story we posted about the 17-year-old SheHero, Angela Zhang, who created a Nanoparticle that kills cancer. That’s right, kills cancer. Zhang’s project “Design of Image-guided, Photo-thermal Controlled Drug Releasing Multifunctional Nanosystem for the Treatment of Cancer Stem Cells” will not only save countless lives but […]

Once Upon a Time

It wasn’t that long ago here on the SheHeroes blog that I posted a blog post about different ways we can take the traditional princess fairy tales and spin them into something… well, something more. I talked about ways can spin them to present the moral lesson we want our Heroes and SheHeroes to get […]

This past weekend was the DVD release of the final Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows II. Having not seen it in theaters the kids and I were very excited to run and purchase the DVD first thing Friday morning and curl up that evening with popcorn and blankets to watch the […]

Spinning The Princess Tales

I have a confession to make here and now. I did not always steer my little girl away from Disney Princesses as I do now. In fact, when I was pregnant and in the months following her birth her room and closet was showered in all things Disney Princess. Clothes, décor and lots of books. […]
