11 Star Wars Inspired Fun Crafts & Printables
Being a mom of boys you would think I’d know a little more about Star Wars – I mean this is a movie that’s been around since before I was even born. You’d think I’d have seen just one of the movies…but I haven’t. As disappointing as this may be to you, imagine how disappointed my son was today when I asked him if Stormtrooper was one or two words. Here’s what I do know…
Mastermind Toys 2016 Holiday Favourites #SoMuchWow + #Giveaway
I’ve been an admirer of Mastermind Toys, a Canadian owned and operated toy store since I first started following them on Twitter a few years ago. When they first opened their doors in Manitoba last year, I just knew we had to visit so we could see what they offered in person – it’s now our favourite toy store to stop in and explore whenever we venture into the city…with or without the kids! CUSTOMER…

Fun & Free Easter Printables

Sometimes, having kids with an age gap (there’s almost a 5 year difference between my boys) it can be hard finding something that they can both enjoy. It can be even harder when the ‘something’ you’re looking for is seasonal–like Easter. So, what’s a mom…

Nerd Block Jr. April Subscription Box
I’m back with another months subscription from Nerd Block Jr. My son enjoyed his February subscription box so much that I just had to review another one. Nerd Block Jr. has become my son’s favourite thing to receive in the mail. At the same time he hates it because I make him wait until I write my reviews before I let him play or display any of the items in the box. A Little About…
6 Tips to Conquer Bed Wetting #ConquerBedWetting
Lucas was a little bit of a late bloomer in a few categories; his first tooth, giving up the bottle, but the most frustrating of all was potty training. It took a whole lot of coaxing and bribery (yes, we totally played the reward card AND it worked). Finally, at 3.5-years-old he was potty trained and accident free at night…so we thought.

I think it’s safe to say that my kids could open up their own toy store. Books, action figures, board games…you name it, they have it, and in multiples. I’m not kidding; when we finally get a house, we want an extra room just for their toys. I’m even open to my kids sharing a room to make this happen.
