Taking Flight
The wind ruffled softly through Kanen’s hair as he burst through the screen door of his grandmother's seaside cottage. It had been raining for days and the sun was finally peeking out from behind a light grey cloud. His red rubber boots squish-squashed loudly across the muddy yard as he dashed toward his target. Grandma Maggie had given Kanen a brand-new trampoline last week as a birthday gift. After one good day of bouncing the raging storm had moved in, cooping the family up inside as rain poured down and lightning crashed over the sea. He had waited, less than patiently, all week for the tumultuous storms to cease their battering of the shoreline. Each night, before falling asleep, Kanen wished for a sunny day. He wished for clear skies so he could fly higher than ever before. Finally, his wish was being granted. He could take flight once again!

Earth-ucation!Top Story - April 2021
Streaming services are making it easier than ever to learn about our planet. Earth month is a perfect opportunity to take a closer look at the state of our world and encourage our families to join in. Children tend to be more receptive to education in a fun format so don’t forget to bring the whole family in on your earth-ucation! I have marked any shows below that are not child-friendly or should be reviewed to determine if the content is appropriate for your child.

To Upcycling And BEYOND!
Once upon a time, a little girl walked through a battered metal archway into a world of possibilities. My first visit to a thrift store was a new kind of thrill. A treasure trove awaited me, filled with items even I could afford on my meagre allowance. For the price of a handful of candy, I could snag a fancy purse or choose my own new clothes. I was enthralled by the magic of that secondhand paradise.

Music To Save Your Sanity
Music is a force of nature. It connects us, moves us, and helps us understand ourselves. Many of the songs chosen for this playlist come from shows or movies that are special to me. Although most of these songs are derived from other media there is no need for you to have seen the movies or even enjoy the same genres to connect with the tone of this collection. I chose these songs because they work together to create a serene vibe and promote creativity or self-reflection.

Reading To Inspire & Boost Creativity
Reading is an incredible way to boost your creative juices. We seek new knowledge, inspiration, and clear our thoughts of real-world problems in favour of adventure and intrigue. Descriptive writing fills our minds with images of faraway lands, strange creatures, and villains to be conquered.
