For those not in the know, or those who like to rough it old-school, let us explain the concept of glamping. It’s a hybrid of glamorous and camping, meaning you dip your toes into Mother Nature without actually getting said toes dirty. Of course, if there’s a toy brand that’s synonymous with all things ridiculous and over the top, like glamping, it’s the wide-eyed world of the L.O.Ls. And thus, it’s no surprise that among this fall’s hottest toys is the L....

Here, you’ll find information on three popular styles of braids and how to tie each one. The under-over-under process may seem complicated at first, but with practice, it’ll become second nature. In fact, you may find yourself trying to beat your last record like a rodeo cowboy hog-tying a calf. But, you know, gentler. Plus: Braiding hair is a bonding experience between parent and child. There you are, standing still together, enjoying the moment....

The October sun sets early in Myrtle Beach, where we live in an area of new-build subdivisions ten miles inland from the sand and the souvenir shacks. Not even 7:00 and already dusk. The running came slow at first. I’m 51, a decade older than a lot of parents with kids the same ages as mine, and for the first few blocks I felt every one of those years. My right calf was tight and my left knee ached....

James announced Bronny’s digital arrival via a post on his own Instagram (where else?), as he shared a photo of his son on the court with the caption: “Everyone welcome the heir to the throne to IG! Told him three years ago the summer of 2019 I’d let … him get one. Damn, time flies! … Anyways, let’s get (it) Bronny! P.S. Keep y’all hating a—s off his comments or we pulling up!...

In the clip, LeVar joins Trevor as they discuss books that have been banned and other titles that are being challenged. The two pay particular attention to the books that school boards, parents, and conservatives say are not appropriate for children – despite being children’s books. LeVar then chooses three of the books in question to read. Well, he tries. Rosa by Nikki Giovanni Rosa, and it’s the story of Rosa Parks,” LeVar says....

It would be wrong to say Gallagher’s new album, C’mon You Know (Warner Records), is better than the best Oasis album. Even the once-braggadocious Liam probably wouldn’t say that. In recent UK interviews, he’s said “you’ve got to play the hits,” in reference to giving fans what they want and playing Oasis songs (like “Wonderwall”) at his live gigs. So the question is, are the songs on Liam’s new album as good as some of the songs from his Oasis days?...

Developed by two guys who helped build the first self-driving car, Lighthouse is a smart security camera that uses facial recognition, 3D-sensing technology, and machine learning to process what it sees and alert you accordingly. At its most basic, Lighthouse works like every other Wi-Fi camera/baby monitor on the market ⏤ it streams footage of an empty house or room to your smartphone all day. Once you teach it who everybody in that house is, though, and what they look like, it now becomes the biggest snitch in the family....

RELATED: The Best Tablet Games for Kids To make sure your kid’s game doesn’t unexpectedly cut off just as they are about to reach a new level or slay a final boss, Play Time Management gives players a warning when their designated gaming time is running low. That way, they can wrap up whatever they are doing before their time runs out, hopefully preventing any epic tantrums or meltdowns. Along with Play Time Management, the new System software update 5....

Parenting changes people. That’s a good thing so long as they can be honest about that unpredictable transformation. The Fatherly Podcast is honest about it. Also, The Fatherly Podcast is kinda funny. It’s not always haha funny because raising kids isn’t like that. It sneaks up on you a bit. Like life. SEASON 3 EPISODE 1: Somewhere Between Raffi and a Viking: Who Knew Being a Dad Was So Hard?...

“The fear is that you’re at the mercy of the pitcher,” explains Christopher Ahmad, the team physician of the New York Yankees. “The contest between the pitcher and the hitter is a unique aspect of baseball.” Ahmad recently wrote a book on baseball injuries and how to prevent them, with coauthor John Gallucci, professional trainer and medical coordinator for Major League Soccer. RELATED: The Girl Who Broke the Little League Gender Barrier When a batter does get pegged by a pitch, the greatest concern is, predictably, the head....

The truth is that lies get a bad rap despite being an inevitable and often useful part of every human being’s social arsenal. This is not to say that lying should be rewarded, but that parents need to be honest with themselves about dishonesty and what it represents. Harsh Truth #1: Toddlers Can’t Lie A two-year-old might say they didn’t eat the cookies while their face is covered in crumbs, but that doesn’t mean they are lying to parents....

Designed by the same dudes who launched Airblock DIY hovercraft drones, each of the four Makeblock kits ⏤ Explorer, Light Wizard, Science Lab, and All-in-One ⏤ come with 30 blocks. Each block has a specific super-high-tech function (gyro sensor, joystick, camera, motor, etc.) and can snap together with pogo pins or stuck to the fridge using magnetic backs. The kit includes project “Idea Cards” to get juices flowing and a variety of light sensors, knobs, tires, and other components....

What is Manhattanhenge? Manhattanhenge is a unique sunrise phenomenon when the sun aligns perfectly with the city’s building skyline in Manhattan, New York. It’s something that happens only a few times a year when the sun is beautifully framed in the city and people get to stare in awe as they head home from a long day at work. “It’s perfectly framed by the concrete jungle of New York City — I like to call it ‘astronomy in your face,’” Dr....

“I thought we wanted to use the Reserve because it’s triple points.” “Only at restaurants and for travel expenses. This is a grocery store.” “They serve food, they have a buffet.” “I checked the statement, it gets logged as a grocery store. We get more points with the Unlimited.” That’s my wife telling me which point-accruing credit card to use when paying for a case of sparkling water. This case of sparkling water cost $8 ($7....

At 10 a.m. eastern time tomorrow, Mars will be 38.57 million miles away from Earth, the closest it will be in the current Martian year. Both planets will continue orbiting the sun, so the moment will be fleeting, but it will be bookended by some quality planet-gazing opportunities. As Mars is the fourth-brightest celestial body, after the Sun, moon, and Venus, you don’t need a telescope to spot it in the southern sky, where it will reach its highest point around midnight....

Freeman is the guy from that thing: He was the original Jim (in his case, Tim) in the OG British version of The Office. He perfectly nailed the hapless Arthur Dent in 2005’s Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. His Dr. Watson brought a much-needed dose of humanity and empathy to Benedict Cumberbatch’s prickly, stilted yet brilliant Sherlock Holmes in BBC’s Sherlock. And yeah, that’s him as Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit trilogy; in a statement released in 2010, director Peter Jackson called Freeman “intelligent, funny, surprising and brave — exactly like Bilbo....

It Defies All COVID-19 Advice The prospect of sitting in a dark, poorly circulated and ventilated movie theater with dozens of strangers, while laughing, screaming, and yelling basically runs counter to all COVID-19 medical advice that the public has been given so far. “We’re advising people to not interact with others beyond their immediate family or home bubble unless absolutely necessary, to limit gatherings of more than 10 people in any given space, and to avoid indoor areas....

Annoyed? If I were you, I’d be absolutely livid. What she’s doing shows a complete lack of openness and honesty, which, of course, are two of the pillars of a healthy relationship. “While we don’t like to think of it this way, marriage is both legally and otherwise a financial relationship,” says Matt Lundquist, founder and clinical director of New York City-based TriBeCa Therapy. “Imagine the scenario if this was Chad’s business partner, hiding money ‘just in case....

The Oscar winner and Harvard grad hits Instagram to run #nataliesbookclub, her love letter to all things literary. And on the Marvel front, she’s indeed in Australia, where’s she prepping to start filming Thor: Love and Thunder. Portman plays Jane Foster, the nurse-turned-warrior who wields the Asgardian God of Thunder’s weapon, the mystical, powerful Mjolnir. Portman used her time in quarantine, when nothing was filming, to finish a new kids’ book, Natalie Portman’s Fables....

Even before you pick it up, this Nerf gun is impressive. It’s over three feet long, with a massive dart drum that’s almost 16 inches wide, making this thing a behemoth in two dimensions. To hoist its 2.2 pounds, there are two handles—one in the rear and one roughly at the midpoint of the barrel—and an included shoulder strap so kids’ arms won’t get too tired when they’re running around with this blaster....
