When I was little, I loved going to see shows with my mom. We saw some locally and as I got older, we’d occasionally see shows on Broadway too. We’ve taken the kids to the circus and a couple kids concerts but I had been waiting to take them to the Nutcracker until this year. They are in first and… Read More
The years seem to be flying by. I wish there was a way to pause time for a bit but no matter how hard we try to, it’s suddenly December and another year is coming to a close. The years pass too quickly and perhaps the month that flies the fastest is December. With children I find this to be… Read More

We recently visited Hershey Park for the first time with our crew: 2 toddlers and 2 young children. I had not been to Hershey Park since I was a teenager and mainly remembered rollercoasters and chocolate. I wasn’t sure it was the place to go with 4 kids under 7 but a lot of our friends were visiting and having… Read More

Is Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party good for toddlers and preschoolers? If you’re planning a trip to Disney World in the fall and have a toddler and/or preschooler, you may be asking yourself this question.
