AnPanMan Colouring Page Printable
This little guy is a Japanese cartoon character that my kids are crazy for. He’s also someone decorating most of my nephew’s toys from Japan. I think that he is quirky, but my opinion doesn’t really matter on this one. Anyways, today I am offering a free colouring page printable because apparently people like them. So here you go. Right click and save and then print it out and let the kids colour. Have fun! I have some free printables and colouring sheets offered each week here right now.

Wordless Wednesday Winter Wonderland
Winter was here last week and it was quite beautiful despite the big snowfall. The kids welcomed the snowy weather, as kids do, and they built snowmen and snow serpents and they even tobogganed on the weekend. My morning walks were freezing, but nonetheless gorgeous. All the neighbourhood dogs were out in their snappy little sweaters. I snapped this picture just down the street from us and it reminded me of those old fashioned Currier and Ives pictures my Mom used to love so much. I don’t mind the snow when it creates a pretty sort of landscape that has a winter wonderland feel. The snow has since been washed…

Young Star Wars Fans Will Love – Clone Wars The Lost Missions DVD #Giveaway X 3
Star Wars Clone Wars The Lost Missions DVD is a Disney new release all young Star Wars fans will love. This Clone Wars The Lost Missions DVD holds two DVDs and hours of entertainment. The cartoon series was a cult favourite and this marks the winding down of that series. My daughter has been asking a lot about Star Wars and she reads Star Wars books whenever she can, so I thought this would be of interest to her. I was right. We watched together and she was so enthralled she almost skipped dinner that first night. Unravelling all of the characters and who is good and who is evil…

Voloom Hair Volumizing Iron #TMMGG2014
This is a house favourite for hair. I received a Voloom Hair Volumizing Iron this past month for consideration. I tested it out this past week with my daughters and I love it. Please note my kids are 10 and 13. I supervise their use of hair gadgets, especially those that could catch fire or damage something if not used with caution. I think the Voloom makes a brilliant Christmas gift for the teenage girl on your list, or for any women you have to buy presents for this year. The Voloom hair volumizing iron is something that worked on my one daughter’s super thick long hair. That alone says something because…

Elegant Christmas Tea Lovers Gift Ideas #TMMGG2014
My Grandmother on my mother’s side was British. She was a total kick in the pants, a mom to five boys and one daughter and she was a huge tea drinker. Of course she also rolled cigarettes back when Virginia Slims make smoking appear sexy, then quit cold turkey one day after smoking for 30 years. She was a great, quirky and inspirational lady who loved to talk politics with me even when I was only nine or ten. As a child, when I went to her house (every single sick day) I would marvel at the teas (mostly Tetley and Red Rose because those were her brands) and the…

Beados – Fun Craft Gifts for School Age Children #TMMGG2014
My kids are crafters. In fact that’s why I originally signed my older daughter up for preschool many years ago. I couldn’t keep up with her need to craft. It was constant. She still loves to craft and little daughter has followed in her footsteps. So, I always know when it is birthday time, or Christmas, a great craft kit will be appreciated almost more than any other item or toy. Beados arrived here on a day when Payton came home from school because she had been feeling sick. Beados is now one of my new favourite craft gifts for school aged children. Payton also made a Youtube video here for…

My #LGG3Moms LG G3 Smartphone Review and Giveaway
Meet my new crush. This is my favourite gadget of the year – the LG G3 Smartphone has changed the way I work. I have been an iPhone user for as long as I have been a blogger. But then I got the chance to test-drive the LG G3 Smartphone. I never thought I would love an LG G3 Android so much. The thing about my iPhone that I loved the most was its reliability. It never dropped calls and it connected seamlessly wherever I travelled. Colombia with World Vision Canada, no problem! Mexico? No problem. So then the LG G3 smartphone arrived and I have to tell you that…
