I'm always excited to see what's new in the world of toys and there's no better time than Christmas to really see what's out there for the little ones. I find that boys toys really stand the test of time, as some of the same toys my brother played with growing up, my own boys are playing with now. But toys are definitely getting more and more advanced and I'm hoping my non-techy brain can still figure them out as they evolve! I'm sure my boys will have them all figured out way before me though! … [Read more...]

There are so many tasks to complete for the holidays, but the good news is they are usually pretty fun so they don't seem too daunting. From decorating the house to baking treats I love each job as long as I stay on schedule and things don't start piling up. One of my favourite things to check off my to-do list over the holidays is ordering our Christmas cards. I love finding the best photo of the boys or our family and trying it out on all the fancy cards available at Tiny Prints. Each year, … [Read more...]

A couple of years ago I was feeling stumped on something to get my boys for Christmas that was a little different. With three boys all close in age I felt like they had a lot of the same toys and needed something they hadn't seen before. A friend suggested Hexbugs and another chimed in that her boys really liked them too so I knew we were on to something. That year they received a Hexbug habitat and loved it, in fact, just the other day they had it out to play with again and realized … [Read more...]

I've only just begun holiday shopping and I've already lost count of how many batteries we are going to need to buy for the boys' new electronic toys. Seeing 'batteries not included' on a box is a parent's worst nightmare. From remote controlled cars to wireless gaming controllers, my boys love tech savvy toys and the cost of keeping them running can add up. New from Panasonic, eneloop™ rechargeable batteries are winning awards and saving Christmas morning! What makes eneloop so … [Read more...]

The Christmas holidays are creeping closer and closer and while I know my boys have one thing on their mind - PRESENTS, for me it's something else entirely. Mom's tend to know that the real magic of Christmas is that sigh..... at the end. When the shopping list is completely scratched off and the baking is complete and decorations are hung. Sigh....Now the holidays can start, because we get to slooooooow down and take it all in. We can smile each day as the kids open the remaining doors of their … [Read more...]
