Moms, have you ever logged onto Facebook and thought to yourself, "WHERE are all the "mom" features?

It may be packaged differently, ie it’s a fish puzzle versus a dinosaur puzzle but essentially it is the same and not truly engaging enough for my kids.
A trend in game apps is to launch new relevant content when big events occur such as Christmas or Halloween.
Do you have relationship with your little ones that has been complicated by SMS messaging and large thumbs?
As if parenting wasn't difficult enough without technology getting in the way!
