My favourite kind of play during these last weeks of summer is the spontaneous outdoor play where we end up hanging out in the front yard, pulling out the sandbox, the basketballs and the bikes and just playing, chatting with neighbours and hanging out! Ok, who’s kidding who? I’m totally a kid at heart! I love all kinds of play – building, dress up, drawing, painting, gluing, beading, dancing, singing and being plain old silly. Being a former Kindergarten teacher, play is something that I love and I know that children learn so much from engaging in all kinds of … Continue reading →

Summer is coming to an end and I’m feeling run down and exhausted. I don’t know if I’m paying for the week long vacation I took with the kids up at the cottage or overwhelmed with catching up after our holiday, but I’m tired! When I get tired, I get dark circles under my eyes, a look that I really cannot stand. I wear very little makeup in fact most days I wear none. But on mornings when I wake up with dark circles under my eyes, there is a definite need for dark circle remover! I know that the … Continue reading →
