Your child is looking at you with eyes that plead, "Let's do something fun this weekend!" But what? www.HawaiiMoms.com has loads of ideas in its calendar of family-friendly events.

Getting moms to take time for themselves is a different issue. They chat on the www.HawaiiMoms.com forum about what they do with free time.

In the Family forum, "hulagirl" wrote: "I guess my hubby felt sorry for me because I'm always around the kids 24/7 and literally have NO time to myself (other than to sleep and with a 4 mo. old, even that gets interrupted). So he encouraged (i.e., pushed) me to go out and do something. So as of last week, my free time consists of going to hula with my younger sister and fretting about how my husband is doing with the kids for two hours."
