Amazingly fun trampoline games for kids

8 Awesomely FUN Trampoline Games

May 31, 2018 by Sarah 8 Comments

We were hesitant to purchase a trampoline. My boys are rather rowdy, and one little one tends to be a bit accident prone, making me think twice about a trampoline. Or three times. Even four. By the fifth thought, and a lot of convincing and promises of safety, we found ourselves owning a trampoline. The…

Why do birds fly in a “V”?

How many questions do you get asked in a day? My count right now has to be close to 100. Inquisitive, curious kids are fabulous – though, truth be told, exhausting. While I have been known to respond with the day-dreamy “yep” in the car after responding to 38 questions about clouds, I really do…

Make a Treasure Chest!

October 14, 2016 by Sarah Leave a Comment

These two points, of course, mean that my little collectors will not be…

The conversation about how much firewood we should have always goes something like this: “I think 6 cords really would be enough. The neighbours have…
