Animals and Science, What More Could You Ask For?
December 16, 2008
Looking for a great gift that won't take up any more of your precious real estate? I know that I am always trying to make sure that the gifts my son gets will fit in our small space. This why I am recommending a number of memberships for places that your preschooler will love. Science World : Children 3 and under are free so you only need to buy a membership for the adult until Read more...

Fall Fun? Try Apple Picking
September 08, 2008
I love fall and almost everything about it. I like the cool crisp air, sunny days, leaves turning, the out of character hot days and the harvesting that goes on. I am thinking this year about taking my son apple picking before the baby is born. I would like a chance to spend some more time Read more...

We're Going to the Zoo, Zoo, Zoo, How About You?
August 13, 2008
Unless you live in Langley or Abbotsford, the Greater Vancouver Zoo is a little bit of a trip to get to, but I think that for a great day trip it is worth it. There is a lot to see, a few great places to eat lunch, and a miniature train to boot. Make sure to pack a picnic lunch and some drinks and snacks because like all zoos I have been to the concessions are very expensive. Read more...
Small Steps to a Greener World: the Naturebag
July 16, 2008
When I started looking for new Canadian products for the 2-6 set I came across the Naturebag . This is a new product put together by two Vancouver mums with an education background and a love of nature. They decided that especially in a city like Vancouver there was a need to bring kids back to nature. I was able to get a bag to try with my three year old and I must say I am impressed. Read more...

Authors and Illustrators In and Around Vancouver
July 07, 2008
One of my passions is children's literature and the effect good books can have on children's imaginations. As a teacher I was able to foster a love of books of all kinds with children and now with my own son I am doing the same. An easy way to do this is to find really good books with Read more...
Exploring the Urban Jungle: Richmond Nature Park
July 03, 2008
Another of the great things about living in the lower mainland is that there are so many trails and parks to enjoy. As a teacher the Richmond Nature Park was a great field trip for both the littlest ones and the older children for a number of reasons. The Richmond Nature Park opens daily from Read more...
Vancouver's History and Landmarks
June 24, 2008
There are so many landmarks in and around Greater Vancouver that it was very hard to narrow down my list. I decided to try to include a bit of the North Shore so we could have both the water and the mountains included. The water and the mountains are such a big part of Vancouver that they both needed to be included. The following activities are both fun and family friendly. Photo Read more...
