The debate over guns in schools has taken a turn for the unusual.

If you’ve had your fill of Grumpy Cat videos, why not take it to the next level and watch a video of children watching Grumpy Cat videos? It’s basically doubling up on cute. There’s the bit of Tardar Sauce herself, which we know is adorable, then there are kids giggling, which is obviously not as [...]

Baby Bandit Picks Locks, Steals Sister's Toys

Emerald Catron — Wed, 27 Mar 2013 21:29:52 +0000

We would say this impressive, but it seems more appropriate to say this kid is the uber-little brother. Breaking into his sister’s room? Check. Stealing her stuff? Check. Doing it in a manner that makes it hard to prove it was him? Check. Unfortunately, times have changed, and now there are baby cams to catch [...]

Watch This Father's Greatest Achievement

Kyle Dowling — Thu, 21 Feb 2013 18:11:44 +0000

Who's ready for 52 seconds of cute? Good, then watch on.

In this recent video -- featuring a father duetting with his daughter to the popular 'Mahna Mahna' tune from 'The Muppets' -- YouTube user Jesse Teeters claims this to be his greatest achievement in the two-and-a-half years he's been a parent. What that says about his fathering skills, we don't know, but our guess is that the guy is being hyperbolic... we hope.

Billy Dukes — Tue, 11 Dec 2012 21:00:13 +0000

This dapper young fella is all dressed up to sing a classic from the King. We love the seafoam button-down and necktie. Sure, it's probably a clip-on, but have you ever tried to knot a double windsor? His stiff white hat is a throwback to the time George Strait first made 'Amarillo by Morning' a country hit in 1983.

Kids are the Funniest Humans on Earth and This Tumblr is Proof

Jackie Mancini — Thu, 06 Dec 2012 02:47:15 +0000

‘David After the Dentist’ recently broke 116 Million views on YouTube.

Townsquare Media | Wichita Falls — Tue, 13 Nov 2012 17:24:54 +0000

We don’t know if this study is accurate, but it’s generating a lot of controversy and it makes a pretty bold statement. But even if there’s just a chance it’s accurate, it might be the best reason yet not to hit your kids. According to a study in the “Journal of Behavioral Medicine” from Plymouth University in [...]

Four-Year-Old Expresses How We All Feel About the Election

Cameron Simcik — Thu, 01 Nov 2012 17:22:01 +0000

With the presidential election less than a week away, candidates are bombarding us from all angles with ads, debates and last-minute pushes to secure votes. (Their efforts are pretty much pointless considering we joined The Pizza Party a while back, but that's besides the point.)

In all seriousness, all this presidential hoopla can be a little overwhelming and upsetting at times. This is especially true if you're a politically-aware four-year-old.

Jeremy Taylor — Fri, 31 Aug 2012 15:48:26 +0000

There is a reason soccer is called football around the world. Yet 11-year-old Gabriel Muniz has been able to excel at the sport despite being born without feet. Gabriel wears prosthetics most of the time, but they would slow him down on the soccer field. So he amazingly runs around on his stumps, looking no [...]

Mike Adams — Thu, 30 Aug 2012 18:26:53 +0000
