Easter Egg Hunt Done The Easy Way

We 💚 the outdoor Vegetorium Egg Hunt for Fruit.
Egg hunts are my favorite part of Easter!

Our Easter bunny color codes the eggs that she hides so that neither kid gets more then the other and so there is no fighting. Lets be honest, Mom and Dad haven't usually had a full cup of coffee by the time the hunt starts, so the easier it can go, the better for everyone. The color coding also makes egg fillers easier because the bunny can be more specific on the items that go in the eggs.

Labelled Baskets from @Poppyjeandesigns to make the colour coding easier! 


This Mom and Dad also don't want the kids to have 10 chocolate eggs for breakfast so we are very fortunate that our bunny fills our eggs with other items such as:

  • hair elastics
  • golf tees
  • socks
  • Nerf darts
  • tattoos 
  • stamps
  • stickers
  • nail polish
  • nail stickers
  • head bands
  • sweat bands
  • mini bath bombs
  • glow sticks
  • underwear
  • lip chap
  • floss
  • bracelets
  • small craft kits
  • chalk
  • coloring sheets
The Bunny still leaves some food in them too but tends to hide some chocolate eggs, gold fish, berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, etc.), jelly beans, and 1 little chocolate bunny.

They also each have a special silver and gold egg, that if they have been REALLY good, the bunny will leave a loonie or toonie in that one. 

AND if the Bunny has been really busy and maybe left the egg hunt to the last minute, she's been known to print off these Easter Coupons to put in the eggs.

8 Days of Thanksgiving with Kids

I love Thanksgiving. I love the weather, I love the food, and I love the time with family with no expectation of gifts. I have recently felt that Thanksgiving is becoming more and more about meals, the big dinner, and decorations and less about reflecting on what we have. I personally feel we are losing the part about recognizing how blessed we are and how thankful we should be for what and who we have in our lives. This year I want to start a tradition with the kids that allow them to show thanks for the many things they have to be thankful for. So Starting October 1st the kids and I will be recognizing our thankfulness everyday until Thanksgiving. Here is our plan: Day 1: Thankful for Toys We have a lot of toys, many that the kids do not play with nearly as much as they should. So, I could get them to go through their toys and choose some to donate, but our elf Hermie generally asks them to do that. So for them to demonstrate that they are thankful for their toys I am going...

11 Local Gift Ideas for Mom this Year

Mother's Day is just around the corner, and as a graphic circulating social media reminded me, there are no daycare and school crafts coming home this year. With our new social distancing regulations, many people, me included, don't want to go into a store "shopping" for a gift idea, and we shouldn't. So I searched for some ideas that would work within the current regulations, while also supporting some local business who are catering to this ever changing situation. In no particular order, here are my current Mother's day suggestions.

March Break Staycation with Social Distancing

This March break is certainly stacking up to be significantly different from those in the past. Plans are changing by the hour and we are doing our best to not panic, keep breathing, and go with the flow as much as we can. Yesterday when I made the final decision to cancel our trip to Ottawa, I started to plan a staycation that would limit our social interaction with groups. So here is my current plan on how I am going to spend March Break with my kids. We s tocked up on dollar store craft kits. I am pretty sure we bought every craft kit that they had that was age appropriate for a 4 and 6 year old. I am going to finally sign up for Disney + and start getting them ready for what I hope to be their big March break trip next year. We are going to create and follow a routine as much as we can. My kids do best when there is a routine and they can predict what is coming next. Daily Routine Wake Up: Breakfast, Dressed, down time.  Structured Activity: ...
