There's good news and bad news for parents of children in the State of Minnesota:  A new set of research data places that state 4th in the nation for overall well-being for children;  But that same date also shows that the state is losing ground in the health and education of it's population under the age of 18.

Officials with the Minnesota Department of Transportation are working to create Safe Routes to School for children that live within the state.  A grant program assures that funding is available for schools and their partners.

The kids are off from school for only a few more days;  Make sure they don't miss out on the chance to skate for free - indoors - at the Duluth Heritage Sports Center on Monday and Tuesday, December 30 and 31.  The skating session runs from 2PM to 4PM both days...

Every parent knows that they need to properly restrain their child in a car seat while riding in a moving vehicle.  However with changing laws and guidelines, people often find themselves questioning if they're doing it right;  What passed as safe practices in 1974 doesn't even scratch the surface for 2014.

If you have kids, chances are they'll get something in their hair at some point.

Decades later, these people have recreated their childhood photos producing hilarious results.

Let the kids have some fun and learn skills along the way.  The Duluth Public Library will host a metal tooling workshop for kids - a unique and fun experience for ages 7 to 12.  The first session will happen Thursday, November 7 at 6PM at the West Duluth Branch, 5830 Grand Avenue.

We are at a point in this country where the poor and middle class need basic things. In the northland that means coats, mittens, and hats. Some children don't have warm enough things to wear in the winter and that's a shame, because it's not their fault.
