I finally settled on Playschool flashlights from Toys R Usfor under $10 ($14 at Mr Mopps.) They turn white, red and green, & go off automatically after so much timehas elapsed. One family even used theirs during the summer west coast poweroutage as it was the only flashlight in the house. Good for boys & girls.Also my friend got kites for her gifts--gets kids and parents together too.Tavie At this age (and later, too) we usually give the birthday child eithera jigsaw puzzle or a couple of books. If you look around you can findsome good puzzles in the $5-$8 range, and a couple of picture books,soft cover, will be about the same. That way you don't get into issuesover guns, barbie dolls, etc. Of course, if you know the kid personallyyourself, and know they have a particular interest in collecting bugsor some such thing, then you can look for something along those lines.Dianna To Karen - shopping for a 3 year old girl's B-day party - I often askthe parents when I RSVP to the party if their child has any particularinterests (or aversions), and that prevents buying weapons or Barbie dollsfor families that forbid that type of thing. Having a 7 year old and a 4year old, I am now at the point where I let them choose the gift within acertain price range if they know the child and have an opinion. When indoubt - art supplies are always good - for 3 year olds, play dough or newcrayons, a pack of construction paper, or that type of thing is alwaysappreciated. ToysRUs actually has some good art sets with crayons, pencils,etc. for under $15. Price wise, I try to stay between $10 and $15 unlessthe child is a family friend. Hope this helps. It gets worse as they getolder, as they get invited to more and more parties. I'm hoping with myolder one to have a small slumber party this year and limit the number ofkids and the expectation of a huge haul of toys. Good luck!Helen I am a mother of a 5 year old boy and a 7 year old girl. I have beenfaced with many birthday gifts so far and have come up with thefollowing suggestions. The simplest way to chose a gift for a child is to ask the parentswhat the child likes. The parents are usually appreciative of yourthoughtfulness and always have an idea or two. A general price rangeof $10 to $15 is safe, more than that is unnecessary. If you have aboy of the same age, ask yourself which toys does he like that a girlmight like too. You would be surprised by how many things would workas a gift for both girls and boys.Sharon Home | Reviews | Advice | Members | Post a Message Join BPN | Help | What's New | Search Please send questions and comments to Berkeley Parents Network .

A Timeline of Growth and Change: Arthur E. Levine's Presidency at Teachers College Teachers College has evolved in many ways under Arthur Levines leadership. The changes fall into three phases: rebuilding the broad foundation of the College; expanding for impact; and focusing on what the College believes to be the single largest problem in education today: the growing gap in opportunities and outcomes between the nations most advantaged and disadvantaged students.
