  on May 18, 2013 in crafts shapes family
  We did a simple craft for Mother's Day using Bristol Board, various foam shapes, and photos of the children. The kids just had to glue their photo onto a circle shape, stick the foam stem onto a rectangle outline, and then add the leaves and petals.
• Lazy Days of....Summer?
  on May 13, 2013 in games playground
  Between April and May, the season seemed to change directly from winter to summer. (We're not complaining!) Much of the time it has been shorts and t-shirt weather. We have even started applying sunscreen. As of late April, Oscar has left the day...

• High Park Cherry Blossoms 2013
  on May 6, 2013 in Neighbourhood Programs and Events family Day Trips
  As of the May 4/5 weekend, the cherry blossoms in High Park have, well, blossomed! Although they are located in a few different places within the park, the best spot, hands down, is the steep hill, leading from the road (right by the Grenadier Restau...
• Field Trip to the ROM!
  on May 3, 2013 in Day Trips
