Hasbro’s #DreamBigPrincess Princess-a-Month: Ariel
Jennifer and her son “O” are this month’s #DreamBigPrincess guest reviewers. Check out last month’s Rapunzel review and then read on for YOUR child’s opportunity to be next month’s reviewer: When I read that guest reviewers were needed for Hasbro’s Princess-a-Month campaign, I jumped on the opportunity right away! As a mom of two boys (born…
Petite & Posh Vaughan
Have you ever been to a standalone American Girl store? I mean one of the big ones, like in Chicago or New York City? They have full-on salons and restaurants for your little doll to share with her little doll. For real. And it’s apparently amazing in the most purposely obnoxious way (and, yes, I’m…
Canada’s Wonderland thrills the kid in you
When’s the last time you went to Canada’s Wonderland? I mean really went. Without your young children who prevent you from really doing the park’s biggest rides? For me, it had been a couple of years since we’d been to Wonderland with kids, but about 10 years since I’d gone with grownups and was able to take…
Henkaa convertible dress
There’s just something about dressing Miss Q like my Mini Me that’s so satisfying. We both love dressing like twinsies, and since she’s only five years old, I’m sure at some point she’s going to tell me to stop — so I’m living it up as long as she’ll let me. When I was at…
Hasbro’s #DreamBigPrincess Princess-A-Month: Rapunzel
Once upon a time, Hasbro came to me and asked if Miss Q would like to participate in its Princess A Month campaign for the balance of 2016. It meant that every month, from April to December, Miss Q would receive a themed “princess package.” My kids are spoiled already, folks. Madly spoiled. Miss Q doesn’t…
phil & ted’s Dash stroller
The first stroller we ever owned, way back in 2008 when The K Man was born, was a phil & ted’s. Back then, I think there was only one model. It was what many of my friends had and suited our needs well enough but its rear axel posed problems for Big B and his long stride;…
Does your kid have an AWESOME teacher?
I’ll ask you again: does your kid have an awesome teacher? The kind that goes out of his or her way to make learning fun and accessible for every student? Who has time for extra parent meetings and genuinely wants to see your child succeed? Who spends money on supplies so your kid’s learning environment…
Indian River Reptile Zoo
Now that spring is upon us, I know many of you are going to start thinking about taking your kids to zoos, aquariums and the like. We love accredited zoos that do more than just show off animals. We were members at the Toronto Zoo for years and we like the work that Jungle Cat…
The Breakup That Landed my Family at Pearle Vision (sponsored post)
I’ve been going to the same optician for 10 years. The problem is that 10 years ago, I lived in Toronto. Now, I live nearly an hour east of the city — and that’s without traffic. I love wearing glasses, but I don’t typically love the eye exams required to get them. In my experience, they’re…
