Post Holiday Bargain Hunters

Everyone is trying to save money these days.

I am a big advocate of post-holiday sales and yesterday I was in Michael's Arts & Crafts where there is still Halloween goodies for 90% off! I bought my boys fun ghost and bat Read more...

If we are lucky it will subside for a couple of trick-or-treating hours, but if not there are several things you can do to ensure lots of Halloween fun. Extra layers!

Halloween Learning Fun
October 29, 2008
Although Halloween seems to be a holiday full of indulgences: candy and costumes and craziness, like everything in life it is also a great opportunity to teach your kids something valuable. At the end of the trick-or-treating experience the best part is always sorting out the loot. Sit down with your little one to sift through the tootsie rolls and candy bars and help them Read more...
Halloween Treats & Eats
October 27, 2008
If I haven't mentioned it yet, I love Halloween. It gives me a reason to bid a happy goodbye to the sweetness of summertime and an excuse to dress up in ridiculous costumes with my children. We have many traditions around this holiday, but one of my boys' favorite is Halloween cooking. We make everything from mummy hotdogs to popcorn balls. The three of us have so much fun measuring and Read more...

There are few things that take me back to my childhood like a puppet show does. When I was a kid we saw them at school, at the library and we performed endless puppet shows (mainly with homemade sock puppets!) at home. One of my very favorite local performance groups is called Puppet Art Theater ??? they take puppetry to a whole new level. On Wednesday they will perform Funny Read more...

Halloween Costume Boo-Hoo
October 01, 2008
It's October 1 st and my kid's Halloween costumes arrived in the mail today. Theyve been sniffing and circling the mysterious brown UPS box like rabid dogs around a package full of bacon and kittens. I have used the mystery of the unopened box as incentive to get my living room picked up, three pages of homework done, the fish fed and them getting dressed for soccer in under ten minutes (a Read more...
