Spotted: Matthew Broderick & James Scoot to School

INF

Wheelin’ around!

James Wilkie Broderick gets a kick start from dad Matthew Broderick as the pair ride his scooter to school on Monday in New York City.

What does James, 7½, want to be when he grows up?

“He has a whole list of career possibilities already, he wants to be ready in case one doesn’t work out,” laughs Broderick.

“Astronaut is high on the list and there’s also fireman and maybe being a baseball player.”

Most parents will go to great lengths to improve their kids’ diets, but Brendan Fraser has a unique advantage: the actor tells PARADE he used outtakes of his new film Furry Vengeance as leverage at the dinner table.

“I had the gag reel from the film with every take of me being humiliated and smashed and trashed,” he admits.

“So I’d use it as a reward to get my kids [Griffin Arthur, 7½, Holden Fletcher, 5½, Leland Francis, 4 this week] to eat their vegetables. I’d be like, ‘Eat your broccoli and you can watch Dad fall down again.’”

1 Trend, 3 Ways: Cute Hair Bows

While some celeb tots rely on headbands to keep their lush locks in place, we’ve spotted a few others sporting some super cute hair bows.

Jasmine Barker (middle) keeps her curly q’s out of her face with a bright yellow style, while Estela Monteverde (right) looks adorable in a big red version.

But having a full head of hair isn’t a must as Helena Giersch (left) proves. Her simple Ladybugs and Lullabies Ava snap clip ($5) was the perfect accessory to keep her wispy bangs out of her eyes!

Family Photo: The Cross-Mahoney’s Brunch Bunch

GSI Media

Marcia Cross takes the diaper bag as husband Tom Mahoney does the heavy lifting Sunday morning as the couple took their twins out for brunch at the Brentwood Country Mart.

The 3-year-old girls — Eden (l) and Savannah (r) — seemed thrilled to receive a ride from their now-healthy dad, who battled cancer last year.

“Before Tom’s diagnosis, I used to say to him every night, ‘We are so lucky. We have each other. We have our babies,’” the Desperate Housewives star, 48, said recently.

“Because life can turn on a dime.”

Wow, that was fast! Just eight days after giving birth to daughter Molly June on April 19, Amanda Peet returned to the red carpet for the premiere of her new indie comedy, Please Give, in New York City Tuesday evening.

Sporting a sleek, pulled-back ponytail, the glowing actress hid her post-baby bump and played up her ample cleavage in a chic silk Lanvin baby doll dress paired with Christian Louboutin open-toe heels and a Marc Jacobs clutch.

We love her simple but sexy new mommy look.
