Summer is an exciting time for everyone in my family because we get to be outside a little more and enjoy the sunshine.

Delight Inside Specially Marked Kellogg’s cereal

Do you remember a time when opening a box of cereal brought the excitement of finding a surprise inside? I have always found it thrilling and adventurous when there are goodies inside the cereal box. It's like going on a treasure hunt at the breakfast table. I remember collecting stickers, and collectible cards as a child, which was very exciting... this was probably one of the reasons I wanted to have cereal as a child for breakfast, lunch, snack, and dinner :)

New Ariel Park at Santa's Village in Muskoka

We had the pleasure of visiting Santa's Village a couple of years ago, and again this summer. This famous and popular tourist destination in Bracebridge is nestled in Muskoka’s Enchanted Forest, halfway between the North Pole and the equator on the 45th parallel, which naturally makes it Santa’s one and only Canadian summer home. The Village celebrated its 60th year this season. There are two theme parks, an aerial park, a day camp, animals, and a family campground, where kids of all ages can visit Santa, enjoy rides, games, and countless other family-friendly activities.

In celebration of May 4th, the unofficial Star Wars holiday, I would like to showcase the DK Star Wars Boutique that has cool Star Wars titles. We have checked out many of the books in this boutique and really enjoyed reading them, as well as looking at the pictures and drawing.
