On Fridays, we list the links we love and point to the hot topics at our favorite sites.

Got diaper rash? Well, not you, but your baby? Lil Sugar has the 411 on how to treat it naturally.

The swine flu is all over the news, and I sincerely hope it’s not coming to a city near you. Still, it’s good to be prepared. So, how far would you go to protect your little ones? Over at ParentDish, Rachel Campos-Duffy (remember her from MTV’s “The Real World”?), weighs in with her thoughts.

Kids loves cookies, and maybe you do too. Does it make you happy to know, then, that there’s something out there called The Cookie Diet? Sure enough. CafeMom talks all about it. My two cents: Forget diets. Just eat healthy foods (lean meats, fruits, veggies, whole grains and healthy fats for starters), get lots of exercise and nix the fads. They might work at first, but they’re not built for the long-term, and weight loss is all about maintenance. Besides, role modeling a healthy lifestyle is so much better for your kids than stuffing cookies in your mouth.

PlanetKid is gearing up for Summer Camp. Check out their dates, rates and themes, and sign up your kids for a fun-filled few months.
