New Planner For the New Academic Year

Although, many of us wish summer didn't end we know our jobs, schools, and all those appointments are waiting for us. If we are organized and manage our time well, all these planned activities will run smoothly. Planning and staying organized is a little more fun when it is done in a planner designed by ourself. I enjoy making planners with Personal-Planner because of the ease of making the planner. They have lots of options that we can choose to make our planner unique.

The cool mornings and evenings have been gentle reminders that this beautiful summer weather is not going to last. In preparation for the fall weather, I checked out a few items from Lands' End that has lots of beautiful, fashionable clothing for women. Lands' End constantly has new items that are unique and comfortable to wear for a variety of occasions. 

Lipikar For Sensitive Skin

I have been using Lipikar Baume AP for my son for a while now, ever since his doctor recommended us to use it. This cream has prevented him from getting rashes due to dryness in the air both in winter and summer. I have noticed when I stop applying the cream he tends to get a rash similar to prickly heat, so we have to use this cream to prevent the rash.

Washi Tape Bookmark

Making Washi tape bookmark is fun and easy. I like that we can easily remove and reattach the Washi tape to make the bookmarks. Cutting the Washi tape is easier compared to other tapes, so it is fun to cut different patterns. 

Driving the 2014 Hyundai SantaFe XL

Last year, my family and I had the pleasure of test driving the Hyundai SantaFe Sport 2.0T and this year we enjoyed driving the 2014 Hyundai SantaFe XL. We drove the SantaFe XL on a trip to Montreal. The five hours drive each way with a few stopovers was a comfortable drive for everyone in my family in this spacious vehicle.

Ten Tips for Back-To-School Online Safety

As parents it is important that we teach our children the know-how to handle the growing issue of cyberbullying. According to Canadian not-for-profit organization and official TELUS WISE partner MediaSmarts, cyberbullying is on the rise, with one in ten Canadian students experiencing it last year. Its studies show that cyberbullying can have traumatic effects on youth, with links to depression, yet kids underestimate how much it can impact them, shrugging it off as a normal part of their online interactions.

Win a Sears Gift Card and See How Sears is Surprising Families #RockTheHalls

The new trends, new fashions, new colours, can be both exciting and overwhelming when shopping back to school. For all children, especially my daughter how she dresses plays an important role in expressing her personality, style, and individuality. I like that Sears carries a variety of top quality brands at reasonable prices. They have a wide selection of styles that children will enjoy wearing.

Digital Books For Children

There are lots of useful digital books for children. These interactive digital books are fun to read and encourage our children to think, as well as their literacy. Here is a list of books that you can check out on the app store.

Hearty Sandwiches with Ivanhoe Cheese

School nights can become hectic sometimes, with running to after-school activities and getting homework and projects done. I like to make sure we have the ingredients available for our favourite, healthy, quick meals during the school year handy, as the nights arrive faster each day and we all get tired pretty quick. Our dinner menu usually consists of flavourful pastas, noodle dishes, hearty soups, salads, or loaded sandwiches.
