  6. Our new favourite…

    A few friends recommended the Brain Quest series to me – a deck of colourful quiz questions that are age-appropriate and test kids on what they need to know.  The questions cover reading, math, language arts, social studies and science.  Last year, when The Boy was 3, he had absolutely no interest in sitting and answering questions.  Yesterday, I took some time out to be with him alone and he was so into this activity – he wanted to answer more and more questions and we had nearly 2 hours (!) of focused quality time.  I also learned that my kid has no idea what a fireman, construction worker or police man does.  Who would have thought?  At Mastermind, the Brainquest pack is $14.95 ea.  I bought mine at Costco this week for $7.95 and there were tons left.

    Everywhere I turn, there is another friend sporting her new straight hair after a keratin treatment.  Apparently, it leaves your hair frizz-less and tame and is perfect for those who blow dry their hair.  As well, after the treatment, you can’t sweat for two days.  No sex, no working out…bonus!

    For those of you who live near Thornhill, this deal might interest you.  Available for the next 8 hours…so hurry!!!

  21. 48 Hour Sale @ Moo – another Mamapicks favourite!

    There are a handful of products out there that make my heart swell (portable toilets included).  Moo is a printing company that lets you create all kinds of neat things with your photos – greeting cards, stickers, and MINI CARDS which are just so awesome in my opinion.  They are sturdy little rectangular cards and you can print anything on them.  A while back, I printed photos of the kids and put them in Moo’s sleek key-chains (they hold 15 mini-cards) and gave them to the grandparents as a gift.  It was a hit!  I just can’t say enough about mini-cards, you have to see for yourself.  Moo is having a 48 hour sale and all their printing products are 30% off.
