We LOVE Bari! We had so much fun there last summer trying out their amazing workout from NYC we asked if they would be part of our big Kickstarter fundraiser bringing kindness to life for our youngest philanthropists. They are so amazing they said YES! A 3 class package is up for grabs Tuesday, 11/17,…
It is no secret that I am a big advocate of Halloween. Adults, kids, parents or not – it’s just a great holiday with a month of spooky, scary and fun nonsense. When I lived in the south I got my first taste of how they do it in the country: guys with REAL chainsaws…
*Please see bottom for information on free kids kindness event at the Packing House Sunday 9/28 1:00-3:00. It’s probably quite apparent that the workload has been constant lately over here at ISP. We have been down to Camp Pendleton talking with Marines, Skype sessions with people doing amazing things outside the U.S. to see how we can support one…
Labor Day. Our treasured American holiday that celebrates the American Labor Movement and pays tribute to the workers who have made this country strong, prosperous, and proud to be who we are today. Oh right, and the other minor detail – we get the day off. We love our country and all that it stands…

Have you ever told your 4 year old “Happy Birthday” then said, “Okay, now hand us all your presents”? We did, and I promise you it wasn’t as disastrous as you might think. I have mentioned previously that my twins get so much attention it should be illegal. Just the other day I picked them…
In CA we are still have several weeks of summer left and are getting creative on how to keep the kids busy in a positive way. Everyone likes getting secret messages, right? For me, it’s reminiscent of Jr. High when you could send your friends a “candy gram” in class – nothing was more amazing…
Good morning ISP’ers! We received several emails about the finger painted artwork in our “How Loss Became My Best Teacher of Life” post so we decided to use this kindness idea for our summer kids kindness challenge week 5. These are Downey family masterpieces. My children have made these for people for various birthdays, special…
As more and more people are finding out about ISP I am receiving so many fun emails from the most amazing people. One last week was from a lady from Word Rocks who gave me this amazing idea in exchange for some smile wands. Fair trade I think. Word Rocks is exactly what you think it…
