How often do you go out shopping for house-hold items? I know for me, it’s a weekly chore if not more. I may be out of eggs one day only to realize I’m out of milk the next. Same goes for house hold items. I stock up on cleaning supplies just to realize a few […]

If you’ve read any of my previous posts, you likely know that my oldest son loves books. In fact, it’s his favourite gift to receive. Well… perhaps not as much as hockey-themed gifts, but it’s up there. It’s also the one thing that he will use over and over again unlike most of his other […]

Raincoast Books; Children Books Giveaway (Canada)

Maya Fitz — Thu, 12 Dec 2013 16:04:38 +0000

While I love doing toy reviews, I think children book reviews top my list. There is something special about children books. Perhaps it is because my oldest son absolutely love books or it is the way kids seem to get lost in their imaginary world while reading or listening to a story. More importantly, it […]

Tomorrow night we light the first light of the Hanukkia. This year, more than ever, I want to make Hanukkah extra special at our house. Mostly because my oldest son is three years old and he’s starting to understand the meaning of holidays and living in Canada, he’s surrounded with Christmas all around him. Unfortunately, […]

The word Evenflo has become a household name for my family. In fact, whenever I mention Evenflo, my husband belts out Pearl Jam’s rendition of “Even flow”. But truly, we have been fans for a while now. For my first child, Kyle, we purchased the Evenflow stair gate and ExerSaucer. Both were great as they […]
