*** Index to FAQ Files ***
_____________________________________________________________________________

NOTE: An increasing number of the files listed below are available
on the newsgroups misc.kids.info, misc.answers and news.answers". These
files are also archived and available for anonymous ftp at rtfm.mit.edu
and their archive names are included in their listings.

Some/many of the files listed below are available via the Web. To get a
listing of what's available try
"http://www.netaxs.com/~iris/infoweb/baby.html"

In addition, there is FamilyWeb at "http://www.familyweb.com/", which may be more
complete than the above.

There is also the the newsgroup FAQ archive at "http://wwwcgi.umr.edu/faqs/misc-kids"

To access the archived copy via ftp rather than your browser:
ftp to rtfm.mit.edu (userid: ftp, password: your-email-address);
cd to pub/usenet/news.answers/misc-kids
and then "get" the file(s) desired using the name given below.
(The current index file is archived with the names "faq/part1" and "faq/part2")

The affected files are noted by the line "Archive: X", where "X" is the name of
the archived file.
_____________________________________________________________________________

If you are interested in any of the following topics, please e-mail the contact
person directly, who will then send you a copy of the file. Please be specific
when requesting files, as some folks maintain more than one FAQ file. If you
would like to add something to the files listed, please also do so via e-mail,
and indicate that you would like your comments added to the FAQ file. Please
read the instructions carefully. If a notation follows the person's e-mail
address, e.g. (Subject "send toys"), the subject line should read "send toys",
*WITHOUT* the quotation marks, of course. Such files are sent out
automatically, and if you don't put the correct subject line in your e-mail, it
will not be processed as quickly. Also, please do *not* request FAQ files using
an anonymous address -- files will most likely bounce or get truncated because
of the automatic stripping of the headers by the anonymous mail server.

If you ask for an FAQ file and don't get it within a week, it may have bounced.
When you ask again, please be sure to include your e-mail address in the body
of your request, in case 'reply' doesn't work. ("Rec." = "Recommendations")
Please also keep in mind that some of the files are quite long, which might
confuse/bollux some mailers.
