The Microsoft Surface 3 Tablet Makes #MicrosoftMarchBreak Fun for Everyone

March 24, 2016 by Kathryn 9 Comments

surface 3 tablet

With two active boys and a fairly small townhouse home, finding fun activities for kids during March Break isn’t always easy. Ideas that are engaging, creative and appropriate for the whole family can be tough for me to think up! This year, MicrosoftStore.ca offered to help by lending me its fabulous Surface 3 tablet along with a list of five fun scavenger hunt activities designed to keep my kids entertained all week, and I couldn’t wait to take part!

The Surface 3 is a high-quality tablet so I was a little bit nervous about letting my energetic boys get their hands on it at first. But it really is designed to be a family tablet…and in some ways, a substitute for a home computer too! We sat down together to check out the scavenger hunt activities and get started on our tasks, while learning more about the Surface 3 at the same time!

Kids Can Watch, Learn and Play this Spring Break with These 3 New Must-See Netflix Series

March 15, 2016 by Kathryn 2 Comments

Unlike kids in Ontario, my boys don’t have their spring break until the Easter holidays arrive next week. But even though I still have time before Zackary and Benjamin are home for ten days of fun, that doesn’t mean I’m not already planning ways to keep them entertained! Luckily, Netflix Canada helped to prepare me with a Spring Break surprise pack filled with crafts, toys, treats and more…along with some fun Netflix streaming suggestions, of course! Looking for ways to keep your little ones entertained over Spring Break? These three shows, with some related additional activities, are sure to be a hit!

The Mr. Peabody & Sherman Show

Season Two of this fun-filled cartoon is available on March 18, 2016, and one of the things that I love most about it is the fact that it combines education with entertainment. Learning about famous historical figures isn’t something that’s usually so enjoyable, but the lovable genius dog and his adopted son are experts at combining learning and laughter! After watching an episode, take some time to let kids research the real historical figure in an equally entertaining way. Whether you decide to play one of Mozart’s most famous pieces or let kids build their own flying machine like the Wright Brothers, there’s all kinds of ways to explore historical heroes even more!

Easter Break Vacation and Staycation Tips from Church & Dwight

March 31, 2015 by Kathryn Leave a Comment

My boys have a week off for Easter Break shortly and I have to say that I’m a little bit torn between putting together a fun little family getaway or just staying close to home. But no matter which choice I make, planning is key. That’s why when I’m deciding between a vacation and a staycation, these tips from Church & Dwight are going to come in very handy!

Vacation

  1. Getting out of town, sitting on a sandy beach or strolling through city streets is exhilarating. Make sure you look and feel your best, and take lots of pictures to capture the memories.
    Tip: For a huge time-saver during your action-packed vacation, try Batiste™ Dry Shampoo in Tropical to tackle oily hair. The light and clean scent will refresh your locks, giving you more time to check out the sights.
  2. The choices are endless. A cruise to the Bahamas? Seeing the Eiffel Tower in Paris? A change of scenery and broadening your horizons is good for the soul.
    Tip: Read fellow travellers reviews online. This will give you some great insight and ideas for what to see and do on your vacation.
  3. If you’re going somewhere warm, this is your chance to escape the end of winter’s wrath. Don’t forget to pack all the essentials.
    Tip: Get rid of unwanted hair with Nair™ Moroccan Argan Oil Ultimate Roll-On Body Wax. You’ll be left with smooth, soft and hair-free skin for up to four weeks.
