Thanksgiving is one of my favourite holiday's because it reminds me to appreciate family and to savour cozying up together by the fire. It’s also pretty impossible to think of Thanksgiving without reminiscing about delicious comforting meals and fun crafts with family and friends.

Choosing a pre-primary school that will nurture and inspire your child is a task often started with little more than a list of names, phone numbers and web pages of local preschools to research and visit. The drawn-out process that follows, however, can leave you feeling anxious and uncertain about where your child would fit in best, both socially and academically.

Halloween is a spooktacular time of year that pretty much every kid gets excited about. I look forward to decorating and planning costumes with my little one each year but do not look forward to the steep prices many shops require to make the most out of their Halloween experience. Over time I have found some great DIY options for everyone to still get the most out of Halloween festivities while not breaking the bank. You'll even get to spend more quality time with your kids and get pumped up for the trick-or-treating fun!
