We have enjoyed Blue Man Group a few times as a couple. Every time we come out laughing and happy and we always say to eachother, we really need to bring the kids to this. Well this past weekend we did just that. We brought all three of our kids, ages 9, 8 and 4 to the show. It was a blast as always. Its so special to enjoy the show again but this time through the eyes of our children. It was fun to see what non-verbal communication they were able to pick up on and the things they couldn’t … [Read more...]
Blue Man Group Boston
I have decided that there is no place where an adult can feel young again like a performance of Blue Man Group. I decided that for my husband’s birthday I was going to do something a little different and go all out. We would head into the city, go to dinner, walk around and enjoy some entertainment. We like fun and we like funny! I knew that he wouldn’t enjoy a musical near as much as I would so I figured I would look for something that was a little more his style. That didn’t mean it had … [Read more...]

Review: Coco Key North Shore Boston
Ahhh after all this snow we have been getting in the Boston area, it was so wonderful to be able to spend the evening at Coco Key Water Park in Danvers, Ma. I suggest that if you have cabin fever (which I can't imagine you wouldn't) then you head to Coco Key Water Park. It is so much fun and there is so much to do and enjoy! From the moment we stepped through the doors my kids wanted to throw themselves in the water. They couldn't believe how warm it was (despite the snowfall outside). … [Read more...]

Create Hands On – North Dartmouth, MA
Our family made a wonderful stop in North Dartmouth, Massachusetts. Our purpose: to visit Create Hands On. I was intrigued by the unique idea behind create hands on. I knew it would be a place that my children would love but I also thought a lot about the ability Create Hands On would have in providing a more social outing for families. Instead of just seeing a movie together with limited communication families could create things together and talk about what they were doing or just talk about … [Read more...]

5 Wits – Foxboro, MA Review and Giveaway

Have A Party At Play-dip-i-ty!
This past weekend we celebrated our soon to be two year old daughters birthday at Playdipity. I love Playdipity. Playdipity is located in Cohasset Massachusetts. It is a one of a kind place to play and pretend. About a year ago we went there for our first time during the huge power outage the east coast was having. They had power and we had a blast. As a teacher I appreciated the cleanliness and organization of the space. It was bright and colorful and had so many fun activities for my … [Read more...]
Review: The Museum of Science Boston Massachusetts
The Museum of Science Boston is incredible! I was truly blown away. As an individual who, to put it lightly, never did excel in science I was intrigued by every exhibit in this museum. At the end of the day I made the decision that if one of my kids has trouble with, doesn’t like or flatly refuses to do science I will bring them to Boston’s Museum of Science. They truly made science fun, hands on and increased an individuals desire to learn more. I had so many "aha" moments, that I … [Read more...]
