For the past four years, our family has taken a family ski trip to Mont Tremblant every February. This year was no exception but it was definitely a more special trip since in addition to the great skiing and other activities, my brother-in-law got married at Mont Tremblant. While personally I never considered a winter […]
The time we forgot our clothes for our week-long vacation
“We did it!” I proudly exclaimed to my husband. Albeit, the term “we” is often used inappropriately in our home. The majority of the time (i.e. 99% of the time), it actually just means “I” or from my husband John’s point of view, “you” (as in me, Maya)….I digress. Miraculously, I managed to pack my […]
Our Family’s visit to Ripley’s Aquarium Of Canada
It’s here… it’s finally here! Ripley’s Aquarium has opened its doors in Toronto. I have been waiting for this day for over a year now. In anticipation, I’ve been speaking about the aquarium to my 3 year old son as I needed another human being to be as excited about the opening as I am. Surprisingly, I […]
A day of Family Fun at Centerville Island Toronto
Summer might be over but that doesn’t mean the fun has to stop. The sun is shining so take advantage of the great weather and head with your family to Centre Island. The journey alone, the ferry boat ride, from the newly named Jack Layton Ferry Terminal in downtown Toronto, is so much fun. On […]
Introduce your kids to farm animals in the city. Our trip to Riverdale Farm
With membership passes to the Zoo, Wonderland & science centre, I almost always forget to enjoy some of the FREE stuff the city of Toronto has to offer families. One of those places includes the Riverdale Farm, only 2.5 km away from my house. Last week I was feeling ambitious enough to walk there with my […]
Keep the hockey spirit alive at Toronto’s Hockey Hall of Fame
It might be summer, but it feels more like spring with all of the rain coming down on Toronto. While I’m lucky that my son loves doing art and crafts, we only have a finite amount of wall space available for his work. So outings are necessary. But where do you go in Toronto when it rains? […]
10 reasons to go see the Shrine Circus
This week, looking for something fun and different to do on the long weekend, I went with my family to see the Shrine Circus. I’ve never been to a circus but have always wanted to go. When I received the chance to attend the Shrine Circus during their Toronto stop, I jumped at the opportunity. The circus didn’t disappoint and […]
What to bring when traveling with baby to the cottage
Amy is a good friend of mine, a previous room-mate, and now, a fellow mom. Before we became parents, our summer weekends were filled with “wild” cottage parties. Now, we go to the cottage to RELAX! Or at least we try… In order to help us relax, we need to ensure our kids our comfortable, safe […]
‘Before 40’ bucket list
With my 32nd birthday (today) and our second child’s birth looming around the corner, it got me thinking about my “bucket-list”. Not too long ago, I had fulfilled many items on my list. I went back-packing through Europe for four months, I skydived 10 times in places such as Switzerland, Israel and New Zealand (3 tandem jumps and 7 solo […]
Babymoon in Jamaica + Toddler
Going on a babymoon seems to be the latest trend these days. During my first pregnancy, it never even crossed our minds. We were doing a complete renovation on our house, and since Kyle was to be born in September, we spent most of the summer at the cottage. That made it feel like enough of […]
