MAJESTA Wants to Know….Are you Treesponsible™? {CONTEST}

DID YOU KNOW…MAJESTA plants 3 trees for every one tree that they use to produce MAJESTA products. That is commitment to the environment! MAJESTA bathroom tissue is made with natural wood fibre and therefore disposes easily through plumbing systems and is safe for septic systems. (Information taken directly from the MAJESTA websites.) Please watch this video to see just how MAJESTA toilet paper easily falls apart! It’s pretty incredible.The contest has now closed.

Summer Sanity: Hiking with Your Children

This Guest Post is a part of Summer Sanity, a series of posts for parents to gain ideas and inspiration for how to keep their children happy, active, educated and having fun during the long summer months. Today’s Activity: Hiking with your children. Warm, sunny days make me want to lace up my hiking boots and find a mountain to climb or a shady forest path to follow. Having children requires slightly more planning before embarking on such escapes, but both my daughters enjoy these adventures almost as much as I do. Here’s what I’ve learned about taking my children … Continue reading

Diono Monterey from @Snugglebugz {REV!EW and G!VEAWAY}

When SnuggleBugz contacted me to check out their online store, I was very excited! I have heard of this Canadian store before and, in fact, I have driven past it before while on the highway and was very curious about their childrens’ products! We received a Diono Monterey Booster Seat for the car for review. I couldn’t believe how heavy the box was for this booster seat, but this is a good thing because it means that the seat is well constructed, and that it is! This seat is solid. First of all, the high back booster allows for extra … Continue reading

Happy Nappers are an adorable transformational play time pillow and a cuddly nap time comfort.They come in six different characters: Hut to Monkey, Castle to Dragon, Bungalow to Ladybug, Igloo to Penguin, Dog House to Dog and Palace to Unicorn. There is definitely an adorable, cuddly character for every one! These pillows stand at 21 inches which is a great size for young children. We received the Dog/Dog House Happy Napper and I have to say, when it came out of the box, I was the first to pick it up and give it a huge squeeze! It just called … Continue reading

#Free #Games to Keep Your Kids Sharp This Summer from @TVOKids

In today’s guest post, Pat Ellingson (TVO’s Creative Head of Children’s Media) explains how TVO’s new games help your children learn and tells you a few things about the public broadcaster that you may not know.Despite what some parents might think, not all of the apps and games our kids seem to be glued to are just time-wasters. New research done by the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE) at the University of Toronto shows that two new games from TVOKids can help increase a child’s capacity to learn. Hop, Frog, Hop! and Ribbit, Frog, Ribbit! are memory games … Continue reading

FUN Matching Parent/Child Socks from @MumMeWear

When I first heard of MumMe Socks it was because they had received the PTPA Award. These socks have got to be the most fun parent/child product out there! I’ll admit that I am a sucker for matching outfits. When I discovered that I could have matching socks with my daughter, I can’t describe the excitement that I had (yes, I am one of “those” Moms). Triple that for the energy that filled our house when my daughter opened up the package to discover that she would be able to look like Mommy!We received the Ballet Flats in a beautiful … Continue reading

Summer Sanity: Scavenger Hunt and Treasure Hunt Ideas

This Guest Post is a part of Summer Sanity, a series of posts for parents to gain ideas and inspiration for how to keep their children happy, active, educated and having fun during the long summer months. Today’s Activity: Scavenger and Treasure Hunts.Summer holidays back on the farm I suspect, are quite different than summer holidays in the city. There were no playgrounds, libraries, movie theatres, etc. to entertain our young bodies or minds. There was TV but we were never huge TV watchers, we had an Atari but that can only keep you entertained for so long. There were … Continue reading
