My girls and I were so bummed that our tweets were not showing up for our very first participation in a Girls Night Out  (twitter hashtag #gno) with dear mommy blogger Jyl at MomItForward.com this past Tuesday because the topic was dear to our hearts: Science, Technology, Engineering & Math (STEM).

We had some short tips ready to share with the mommies, and we tried our best to keep up with the questions only to find that no one can see us So, mid-way through we dropped out of the party

But, I couldn’t let our humble tips go unnoticed, so I shared some of our tweets below. [At the time of posting this, we just noticed that Jyl had the awesome idea of sharing wonderful tips shared from that night in this comprehensive post here.]

*Tip:  If we have a link in the tweet, just click the image because it’s linked to that site.
