Is shopping a chore, especially with your little ones in tow? Venture to Pretend City during March to teach them how to help you shop at a grocery store.
This month, grown-ups and children will learn about all the fun things that happen behind the scenes in a grocery store during the month of March at Pretend City Children’s Museum’s Grocery Store! What a great way to teach children about healthy produce, dairy and more.
Isn’t it more fun shopping with friends? I certainly love wandering my favorite store with a buddy, chatting about the latest finds and trinkets for the home. Ikea is encouraging you to join in on the fun at their Third Annual “BYOFDay” – Bring Your Own Friend Day at Ikea.
On March 8, 2014, Bring your own friends day at IKEA, a national* in-store event that offers IKEA fans and their friends a special shopping experience. Shoppers will enjoy deals, in-store activities, raffle prizes and drawings and all kids of fun that comes with shopping with your pals. The day is designed as a special reward for IKEA loyalists and their friends.
I was recently given the opportunity to do a review on a beautiful book called Curious Critters 2. Award-winning author and photographer, David FitzSimmons, showcases his unique approach to animal portraits.
Instead of finding animals in exotic locations, David photographed common animals—many found in your own backyard. He placed them against plain, white backgrounds, producing detailed close-up images that are simply incredible.
Have you heard? Farrell’s Ice Cream Parlour is back and has now landed in Buena Park, CA.
UPDATE: Farrell’s Buena Park is now CLOSED! The doors closed in December 2018
As a kid, I can recall the Farrell’s Tradition, celebrating many birthdays with friends and family, enjoying Sundays, Pig’s Troughs and more. Naturally, I’m giddy that they are back, and literally down the street! I can continue the tradition with my children.

We were recently introduced to a new hit children’s animated series that is already well known in Canada, Toopy and Binoo™. It is the adventures of Toopy, a tall, funny and friendly mouse, and his best friend Binoo, a tiny, clever and lovable white cat.
I was checking through email one afternoon from a PR agency and Toppy and Binoo filled the screen. My princess ran over to the office to check out what Mom had discovered, and just like that, I was kicked off the computer as she immersed herself in the show.
