Throwback Kids Activities for Summer: Badminton

June 4, 2016 By Thaleia 3 Comments

I have to admit that I have not played badminton since junior high school PE. Our gym teacher was determined to teach us girls some basics of a handful of sports including football stating that if we knew something about more sports our future boyfriends would be impressed. I didn’t learn anything about football but my husband could care less about the sport so I still won out in the end, lol.

Summer is a great time to learn a new sport like badminton. It’s a great addition to any list of kids activities for Summer. Add in an uncle or two and the game is even more fun.

Fun Things to See at the Newport Aquarium

June 3, 2016 By Thaleia Leave a Comment

We are fortunate to live within driving distance to a very large aquarium called Newport Aquarium. Today we are sharing some of the fun things to see at the Newport Aquarium. I wish I had more specific information to share with you about each species but it’s a very busy place and kids tend to wander off in excitement if not watched carefully.

Kids Eat Free Restaurant Guide

June 2, 2016 By Thaleia 1 Comment

Did you even know that your kids eat free at some amazing restaurants? I was turned on to this trend way back when I was in MOPS a handful of years ago. One of the leadership team members contacted all of the local restaurants in our county to find out if they offered a kids eat free program and what it entailed. She then took that information and typed it up, laminated it, and added a magnet to the back for every mom in our group. I had that magnet on our refrigerator for a couple of years.

I was thinking about this a few weeks ago and since we are planning our Summer trips I wanted to created any easy to access list for us! Now that we have 4 children but the oldest is 13 and is considered an adult we can buy 3 adults meals and get 3 kids meals free at most restaurants! This can be an incredible savings if you are dinning out more then one time over the course of a week or month.

Did you know that International Goat Day is June 20? I didn’t know until my friend Helen from Witty Hoots mentioned she was having an International Goat Day Blog Hop!

Since we don’t live on a farm or own any goats I thought I would create a couple of goat coloring pages for this blog hop.
