Is PG-13 really OK for Teens?

Share

Every Friday we have the opportunity to find out what is good and not-so-good at the movie theaters from Bob Waliszewski the director of Focus on the Family’s PluggedInOnline.

Last year, Bob wrote and OpEd piece for the Los Angeles Times about the MPAA's PG-13 rating for movies and that maybe it is time to re-think the ratings. Wheather you have a teenager or not, this is important to read and maybe get involved.

Things to do on a rainy weekend

The Maryland Kids Page has a great section of places to visit across the state. The list is broken down by counties to make it easy to find something close to home. Bonus: many of the places can be visited at little or no cost. Click HERE!

So, grab the kids and the umbrella and have some fun this weekend!

Family Night Out: Shuttle Watching

Share

This might be a night where you let the kiddos stay up past their bedtime to watch the latest Space Shuttle launch from your backyard.

The shuttle flight will be the 28th to rendezvous and dock with the International Space Station, and the glow of its engines will be visible along much of the Eastern Seaboard of the United States.

The launch is scheduled for 9:20pm. So, in the Mid-Atlantic region, look toward the south about 3 to 6 minutes after launch. The shuttle will appear to literally skim the horizon, so be sure there are no buildings or trees to obstruct your view.

SPACE.com is a great website with more details on watching from your backyard. Click HERE to visit them!
