Playtex PlayTime Cups keep drinks cool, prevent spills

Sometimes when we are driving home from preschool Hannah likes to recite the favourite drinks of her family members: "Grandma likes Diet Coke, Daddy and Grandpa like beer, Mommy, you like Coke Zero and I like delicious cold water!"

Note Hannah's favourite drink - delicious cold water. Not room temperature water, delicious cold water. Now that the hot weather has arrived, keeping her water cold can be kind of tricky - especially when we are on the go.

That's why we both love the new Playtex PlayTime Cups. She loves that her cups feature Thomas and My Little Pony. I love that the cups keep her water cool and that they are leak-proof. I can throw her cup in a bag with my wallet and iPad and not worry. I also love that the cups are dishwasher friendly - which means Thomas stays Thomas and I don't get asked why I "scratched" him.

Shaping Up with Wacoal Intimates

I was in grade 8. I was on the phone with my then-boyfriend when my brother and parents returned home from shopping. My brother got on the phone and announced matter-of-factly that Mom had bought me a bra while they were out. I immediately turned red and hung up the phone, humiliated. Perhaps that is the exact moment bras became embarrassing for me - a necessary clothing item I would continually hate to deal with and shop for.

Because of my relationship with bras, I have only been fitted twice in my life – the first time for breastfeeding bras when I was about to become a mother and the second time was recently with a Wacoal Sales Consultant at Hudson’s Bay. My post-baby body needed some help, and Wacoal definitely rose to the occasion.

Celebrating 30 years in business, Wacoal is proud to provide the perfect fit for every woman. Wacoal uses modern fabrics, innovative technologies, advanced manufacturing processes and unique designs to meet the evolving needs of today’s women. Wacoal sells a variety of laced bras, sports bras, underwear and body shapers. Bras range from band sizes 30 to 40 and cup sizes A to H.

Be Adventurous with Netflix Canada's new series Dragons: Race to the Edge #StreamTeam #Dragons

Last month Hannah became a Dragon Trainer.

We headed to downtown Toronto for an afternoon of fun activities, and to get a sneak peak of the first two episodes of the latest Netflix Original DreamWorks Series - Dragons: Race to the Edge. She learned how to toss sheep, dress like a viking and got to wear face paint while doing so.

The new show follows Hiccup and Toothless, from the movies How to Train Your Dragon, as they discover there are more dragons outside of Berk.

10th Annual HorseCapades at the CNE - Free this August!

One of my favourite parts of the Canadian National Exhibition is visiting the animals. The excitement of the CNE stampedes into Toronto early this summer with HorseCapades, an exciting and interactive program that introduces fans of all ages to the wonder of horses.

In its 10th consecutive year, HorseCapades returns to the CNE beginning August 2nd, 2015, at the Horse Palace, Exhibition Place. You and your kids can pet horses, learn about grooming and shoeing, guess a horse’s weight, as well as enjoy a horse-drawn wagon ride. Children can also enjoy a free pony ride!
