    Take the 1,000 Minute Reading Challenge

    June 21, 2021 / No Comments

    When I was a child I could spend hours upon hours reading. I consumed novels in the summer as if they were food and they kind of were. In summer as a child I had all the time in the world just to read. In school, I loved a good reading challenge too. Summer Slump This summer, when the kids are home you can encourage their love of reading with this cute little 1,000 Minute Reading Challenge. Don’t let summer slide or summer slump claim too many of the kid’s brain cells this year or any year. What are You Reading? What kinds of books are your kids interested in?…

    Easter Colour by Number Activity Sheet

    March 8, 2021 / No Comments

    Spring is here. Now, that’s cause for celebration. So, I thought I’d share this cute Easter Colour by Number activity sheet with you. Post contains affiliate links as a service to readers. I make a small commission off of qualifying purchases. Is spring is in the air, then Easter can’t be far behind. But that means a whole mess of weather in between. Rain and sometimes snow is still on the agenda. One Year Ago… OH BOY, it is hard to believe where we were one year ago. How has it been one year since the start of the pandemic here in Ontario? Such a hard year. But I still…

    Bee Mine Valentine’s Math Addition and Subtraction Booklet

    January 20, 2021 / No Comments

    What does Valentine’s Math look like? Well, one plus one equals two. Just kidding. Valentine’s Day Themed Addition and Subtraction Booklet I mean Valentine’s Math isn’t much different than any other math, but at the very least it’s a cute little opportunity to sell math practice to your kids. One of mine had zero interest in math for years, so sometimes that meant adding some manipulable toys or tools to help make it tangible, or real. Whatever works sometimes to get them through. I hope you each have a beautiful Valentine’s Day with your family. There sure is a lot to celebrate about February. Valentine’s Day, Family Day, and more.…

    Fun Wine Word Search Game

    December 27, 2020 / No Comments

    Enjoy this wine word search this week when you have a spare moment. By now, you all know that word searches and word games make me happy as a clam. This stems from all the time that I spent in the hospital with Crohn’s disease as a kid. People would always bring gifts of crossword puzzle books and word search games. The Gift of Words Those were amazing ways to pass the time when sitting there in the hospital unable to get out, go shopping or even go to school. Those word games helped fill the hours. Of course, I also did a lot of writing while on the inside.…

    End of Year Journal Activity Booklet

    December 16, 2020 / No Comments

    This End of Year Journal Activity booklet is pitch perfect for kids at this time of the year. It serves several purposes. An End of Year Journal can prompt kids to get writing and thinking about the past year. But, to be honest, I love it equally for the fact that a simple journaling activity can also make gratitude real. Gratitude Exercises Even in a year when there didn’t seem like there was much to be grateful for, something can always be found. I believe that and it’s something I am trying to convey to my kids and my readers regularly. I wrote about gratitude way back when at the…

    Frog Life Cycle Educational Booklet

    April 30, 2020 / No Comments

    When I was a child, I was frog crazy. I don’t know what it was about frogs to tell you the truth. But, perhaps it’s the frog life cycle that was part of the appeal. As a student in elementary school, I used to always opt in to do the assignments featuring tadpoles and frogs. I still remember going to a swamp to gather a few tadpoles for a social sciences project in grade five or six, I think. Tadpoles were always plentiful in swamps and ponds in Guelph It was always fascinating to watch those tadpoles sprout little legs and become full fledged frogs. Kind of miraculous to watch…

    In May of this year my oldest daughter and I will travel to Greece for the first time ever. We are beyond stoked. It is her last year of high school and she literally just a few days ago got accepted into university. Her first choice for the subject she wants! Can’t wait to celebrate that in Greece.

    Happy New Year 2020 Colouring Doodle

    Happy New Year 2020 to all of you! How did you spend your New Year’s Eve? Last night, we went skiing as a family, well mostly…my one girl went to a friend’s sleepover party and chose to stay there. It’s a New Decade – Welcome to 2020! So the rest of us, the remaining three members of my family, went skiing at Boler Mountain in town here and had a great time together. At 9:30 pm roughly every New Year’s Eve they have a family New Year’s Eve event and we have enjoyed it a few times. Last year, we ushered in the New Year with my good friend Margarita…

This month I will send one daughter off to Pioneer Camp Ontario and my older girl will keep working hard at her job. Meanwhile that’s basically what her Dad and I will also be doing. SO, this month will be a working one around here. With a few breaks built in and weekends spent enjoying the pool. Can’t even begin to think about Back to School yet. But I recognize it is right around the corner. So here’s to all the…
