Brooke Tucker-Reid, momstown writer How is it August already? It’s like I blinked and July was gone. Before the rest of the summer slips through your fingers and you succumb to the craze of back to school shopping, here are a few fun activities to try with your kiddos. From farm to hungry little bellies…
Are There Fireworks in Brampton on Canada Day?
There are lots of July 1st activities in Brampton to celebrate Canada Day. Start your day with a delicious Pancake Breakfast at Downey’s Farm, then head over to Chinguacousy Park for entertainment all day long, culminating with FIREWORKS at dusk!
Lakes and Beaches in Brampton
While Brampton has lots of splash pads and wading pools, there’s nothing like digging your toes into warm sand and build a towering sand castle at the beach!
Backyard Pool Safety Rules
Nothing says summer is here like the May long weekend, and the opening of the pool. Backyard pools can provide many hours of summer fun, but they can also be dangerous. Owning a backyard pool or hot tub comes with the responsibility of ensuring its safe use with pool rules for all.
Edible Sand
Brampton moms and kids love the sensory activities momstown provides at our many events. Kids have the chance to explore a new material, enjoy free play, and with Edible Sand, a taste test is a must!
Stepping Stone Salt Dough Recipe
Flour, salt, baby’s foot…what could be easier! Seal it to put in the garden, or insert a straw through it so that you can hang it from the window.
Signs of Heat Stroke
In the hot summer days ahead our kids will want to play, run, swim, repeat, repeat, repeat which is what we love to watch them do. What we don’t want to see is our little ones struggling with muscle cramps, heat exhaustion or potentially fatal heat stroke.
Easy Cupcake Liner Flowers
What Mom doesn’t love flowers for Mother’s Day. Even better, those that don’t require watering! Dads can help kids make a beautiful bouquet of flowers, one that Mom will cherish always.
Splat Painting
When you think of painting, you usually think of using a paintbrush. But have you ever used pantyhose?
Dill Pickle Fish
What could be more fun than fishing? Why, eating fish, of course! Dill Pickle potato chips adds some wow to your walleye!
