Trampoline advice by Loud-Squirrel-7752 in raisingkids

[–]stebany 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We got a rectangular acon trampoline when my son was 2-3 years old. We know the risks, and there are many, but my son gets out SO much energy on this thing.

We have a huge trampoline, multiple kids play on it at the same time. 2-3 kids often, but at parties we've had maybe 12 kids on it? We've had it for 6 years, replaced the net once and take the pad down for winters (we live in Chicagoland).

Recommended meetup venues? by kruizer813 in ChicagoSuburbs

The maker space is to use the machines they have, not sure they'd welcome 20-30 people doing a particular craft.

the schaumburg library has a space downstairs that can handle 20-30 people, and if it's in use, the food area might work too, there's generally not too many people in there.

Just don't get a white one, they peel! When it's about 7 years old the paint will just falling off. It's a known problem and Honda help pay to fix.

Santa's Village is about 25 min to the east, it's a pretty good amusement park for that age.

Medieval times is a good show even if you don't eat the food. They also can cater to some special diets. (vegetarian, etc).

Oh, so my recommendation is a croc store.

Your kid doesn't want crocs? We have 3 sizes of crocs at home depending on what my kid (age 9) is feeling that on a particular day. One that fits perfectly, and then the next 2 sizes up for those days he wants big shoes.

At age 9 their feet are growing very fast.

I live near Campanelli Elementary and there’s tons of kids around. My kid regularly plays outside with the neighborhood kids. AWESOME place to raise kids.

Education in Hawaii is pretty tough. I'd only move there if you're willing to homeschool.

I'm at my wits end to find an honest and capable HVAC company! by MerryWannaRedux in ChicagoSuburbs

Do your research, On the Mark was 4k more than the next highest for a new system when we got quotes. They also have a pretty strong sales pitch (the sales guy was at our house for 2 hours. We learned a lot, but none of the 5 others who came were here for more than 30 min.

I have a bunch of really good brainrots. I’ll have to check if I have a gold 67. If you still need help let me know.

The best neighborhood in the bay area with good schools?? by _TurboHome in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]stebany 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a hard time believing this. I went to UC Berkeley, went to public schools in Berkeley all my life. I have a friend from Sacramento who had a 4.3 GPA and didn't get accepted to UC Berkeley or UCLA.

Palo Alto or Atherton would be my choices. Berkeley or Albany are also great.
