Now, I agree, the "do more for your kids at all times!" trend is tiring.
And yes, even if you cut out TV entirely there definitely aren't enough hours in a day to cram in all the things that are supposed to make your kid better, brighter, and much more bushy-tailed. (And don't forget the free play!)
However. With that all aside, had I known about this ten or seven years ago I would have made Jenn purchase an office chair RIGHT AWAY, and if she asked why I would've told her.
Spinning babies in office chairs increases coordination.
Why didn't I think of that? Sheesh. Also: I miss my old sit and spin. New ones suck.

Speaking of which - in the "do more for your kids" category, and also in the "fun things to spin on yourself" - there is this amazing device called a Billy Board (http://www.bodymaintenance101.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/introthe_billy_boardcore_pro.pdf), which I actually saw demonstrated by its inventor about 20 years ago, and I really wish I'd bought one then, because they were a lot cheaper.
Here's more info about it (http://billyboardrevolutioncorepro.blogspot.com/), and what appears to be the current manufacturer (http://www.cottagecraftworks.com/core-balance-revolution-core-balance-board-p-1100.html). I wouldn't buy a new one, though; if I was looking to buy, I'd put out the word on Craigslist for a second-hand one - the things are extremely solidly built.
