    Time to step up your fitness routine with the 30 Day Steps Challenge! Fitness and health are top of mind right now for everyone.

    Christmas Chatterbox Activity

    December 10, 2022 - By 

    Remember that childhood game we used to call chatterbox? Well, once upon a time I remember when it was called something a bit different but I like the idea of a Christmas chatterbox and no matter the origin of the concept, it simply is nostalgic for me every time. This was the school playground girl’s activity at recess so many days. If we weren’t skating, playing tag or indoors helping the teacher, then we were on the yard doing this and deciding which flap to pick, waiting for it to reveal some silly truth or character.

    Pumpkin Investigation Science Activity

    September 28, 2022 - By 

    The best science activities in my personal opinion are the ones where kids don’t even realize they are learning about science. As a lot of you know I have always had one child here who is a reluctant science student. My oldest is all hands on science and social science and always has been. My youngest however finds it abstract somehow and never really enjoyed the topic. So, hiding some science activities under the guise of play always made the most sense for them.

    On Goal Setting and Making Magic Happen

    July 28, 2022 - By 

    As a writer and a business person I have always been invested in goal setting as a means of keeping myself accountable and moving forward. For me, this works. The year that I levelled up my freelance writing and carved out more time for pitches and bylines, I made good on those goals. Here’s how. Over the course of a career I have at times been employed on staff at magazines and newspapers. As a staff writer sometimes, the goals were obvious: get the gig as a columnist. (Which I did for a bit as a business writing columnist.) Or…
