Literacy and Technology go together hand in hand in this day and age. Last summer, as September approached, my wife (and your lovely hostess here) was more than a little bit panicked. You see, three years earlier, when our daughter was heading into JK (that’s junior kindergarten, or “pre-K” for some of you) she was already working with a fairly substantial list of sight words; not to mention her printed words were far above what was expected of a four year old. Our son? Not so much. Despite her best efforts, my wife could never engage him in literacy-building activities … Continue reading →

I will NEVER forget the time leading up to the holiday season back in 1983……oh boy, this is making me sound old already! I was in grade three (did I just give my age away?!) and the new trendy toy was the Cabbage Patch Kid! The shelves were filled with these unique looking dolls and it seemed like everyone was getting one. I wanted a Cabbage Patch Kid Doll SO badly that year! In fact, I was so desperate to get my hands on one of those dolls, I announced to my parents that I was willing to use ALL … Continue reading →

For girls who have sensitive skin, these undies are perfect! They come in sizes 2-12, a variety of bright, fun colours and a few different styles. These are the only underwear that hasn’t irritated my daughter’s skin. They are great quality, have no uncomfortable tags and have a nice thick elastic. Can I just add that I absolutely LOVE the box that they come in as it can be used to store little bits of something like small trinkity toys! We love these undies so much that when they were temporarily out of business, I almost cried because they were … Continue reading →
