Sometimes it seems like summer will never end. But finally that first cool, crisp autumn chill comes along and rekindles fond memories of the cozy, colorful days and nights to come.
Sharpen the pencils and dust off those books - it’s back -o-school time! It’s a pretty hectic time of year for everyone; with the kids heading back to the classroom and Thanksgiving and Halloween coming up, everybody has a lot on their plate. Keep it all in check by making the most out of it, having fun and staying on budget.
Summer is the season for barbeques, beaches and… boredom. Some of the most dreaded words a parent can hear are, “I’m bored. There’s nothing to do.” Despite having a toy closet packed with games and puzzles and a garage filled with bicycles and balls, children always seem to find a way to be bored. When this happens, do what I did and alert the residents of your home that “bored” (or any derivative thereof) is no longer a part of the English language. Not only is the word banned in our home, but the feeling is not allowed, either.
Calgary can be your basecamp for many adventures. This summer, check out these amazing experiences only a short drive from the city.
