Shopping at Mark's as the Back to School Routine Starts

The yearly events at the CNE usually reminds us that back to school routines will be starting soon! We are looking forward to go the Canadian National Exhibition this year as well, as the events happen between August 19th to September 5th.

Back to School Shopping at Sport Chek

Although, going back to school is far from our minds – looking at the rate, at which the days are passing by, I do not want us to be unprepared when the time comes for us to go back to school. Getting our children back-to-school ready is simple with the variety of products available at Sport Chek. 

Breaking Free from the Everyday with Hyundai Tucson

We did break free from the "everyday", as we drove the Hyundai Tucson recently for some of our road trips this summer! The features of the 2016 Hyundai Tucson deliver sporty driving dynamics, and its safety technology makes everyone feel safe, which gives us confidence to enjoy the drive. 

Aquatarium and the Tall Ships Festival in Brockville

During our visit to Brockville, we also had a chance to check out the newly opened Aquatarium. The Aquatarium is a fun place to explore with children, as there are lots of hands-on activities to do and learn from.

Exploring the City of Brockville

We went on a road trip three hours from Toronto to Brockville, and loved our stay in this beautiful town famous for the 1000 Islands.

Preparation for Back to School during the Summer Holidays

During the summer it is always better to keep our selves actively engaged not only in outdoor play, but also reading and revising concepts to avoid the summer slide. The books at DK's Back to School Boutique is helping us.

Staying at DoubleTree Fallsview Resort and Spa by Hilton to Explore Niagara Falls

When we plan to stay over at Niagara Falls, we choose DoubleTree Fallsview Resort and Spa by Hilton Niagara Falls because it is conveniently located close to all the attractions we like to check out when visiting the falls. We also choose to stay here because of the Hilton HHonors program.

Relaxing, Homely Stay at Viamede Resort

We enjoyed a relaxing stay at the Viamede Resort in Kawartha Lakes, while enjoying a variety of activities. The staff at the front desk were friendly and welcoming; we got a run down of all the activities available at the resort when we signed in. 

Hiking the Trails of Killbear

While driving to Northern Ontario we can see a drastic scenic change from rolling hills with farms and fields found in Southern Ontario to rugged, rocky landscapes with rocks and forests. This geological change is prominent when we visit Ontario Parks such as Killbear.

Win a line of Kandoo products

Kandoo Flushable Wipes are a summer travel essential for parents. I remember travelling wasn't easy for us when we were potty training our children. Kandoo Flushable wipes do not require any rolling or ripping, which makes it easy to use and perfect for little hands. I like that it comes in travel sizes that fit into any suitcase, back pack or handbag.
