Rainy Day Activities for Kids
Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links. It’s that time of year. The time of year that the weather can be unpredictable. One minute it can be sunny and beautiful, and the next it can be raining. If your children are getting a little stir crazy cooped up indoors, and you are feeling the same, there are a few things you can do to make rainy days more bearable and even fun. Visit the…

Sibling Rivalry and How to Fight the Age Gap During Family Time
My boys are 5 years apart and while I thought this age gap would be the perfect amount between the two for ‘no sibling rivalry’ apparently I was terribly wrong. They couldn’t be more different and they fight over everything; toys, adventures, snacks and yes even what they watch. One wants to watch Paw Patrol and the other wants to watch The Avengers, it’s a win-lose because someone always ends up unhappy. When they do…

Easter egg decorating, family movie fun, activity sheets and reading a collection of Easter books for kids are all fun things to do on the days leading up to the special holiday. Whether the reason for Easter being special to you is for religious purposes or just so you can see your children’s bright smiling faces when they realize some yummy treats have been left behind for them from the Easter bunny, there’s an Easter…
Family Movie Night with Netflix #StreamTeam
Family movie night is not always as stress-free as it sounds. In our house, what should be a nice quiet evening usually starts with screaming and tears…and that’s just from me as I’m trying to get my boys to agree on a family movie to watch. It goes like this - Lucas wants to watch something with crime fighting heroes or ‘real people’ (his words). Colton wants to watch something with talking animals or vehicles…
Transformers: Rescue Bots - Adventures in Time and Space #Giveaway
My boys are complete opposites - right down from the colour of their eyes to their favourite foods, without knowing them you wouldn’t even think they were related. I’m going to say about 95% of the time they either can’t or refuse to get along. Colton always wants to do things with his big brother and Lucas very rarely wants to play anything with his little brother. Not out of cruelty or dislike but because…
New Year New View Pledge #StreamTeam
February is the new January, right? It’s okay that I haven’t started on my New Year’s Resolutions because…I didn’t make any! This year I decided to just do what I want when I want. No more feeling bad when I miss a gym day. No more making myself sick over the guilt of eating that piece of cake. Instead I’ve decided to make my own family pledge. It’s a New year so why not have…
9 Ways to Give Back During the Holidays
Every year, I say “This is the year we’re going to give back!”, than life takes control and BOOM…the holidays are over. Not this year! No way! This year we aren’t going to let time pass us by. As a family we will give back during the holidays while we spend time together, teach our children some new values and hopefully create family traditions that they will pass on to their children. I feel like…
The Sandman and the Lost Sand of Dreams #Giveaway
Have you ever wondered why we dream? Good dreams, bad dreams…where do they come from? Do they have an underlying meaning? Is it just our imagination in over-drive? I remember hear Mr. Sandman from the Chordettes as a little girl; of course, I know now that it was about a lonely girl who wanted Mr. Sandman to bring her dream man to her but at the time the only line I ever heard was “Mr.…
Miniscule: Valley of the Lost Ants #Giveaway
Miniscule: Valley of the Lost Ants is a silent movie for children, I think…Do silent movies have music and a whole lot of buzzing? Too be honest, I’ve never actually watched a silent movie so I wouldn’t know. I’m not going to lie, I probably wouldn’t have had a clue what was going on had I not read the synopsis before hand…BUT this movie was not made for me or any adult in mind for…
