    "Experience Gifts" - Local Fun For Holiday Gifts

    "Experience Gifts" - Local Fun For Holiday Gifts

    An alternative to toys and trinkets for holiday presents. Want to have the fun delivered right to your inbox? Sign up today! As I walk past a pile of baskets bursting haphazardly with toys, and make my way past a few semi-trucks and tractors stacked against a wall, and around a play-kitchen standing where an end table used to sit, it seems to finally hit me that our living room isn’t looking . . . well . . . so living-roomish lately. My boys have toys. Lots of toys. I think t

    Thanksgiving Week: Food, Fun & Holiday Parades!

    Holiday Parades kick off Christmas in Calumet, Manitowoc & Sheboygan Counties This week is all about the stuffing…and the gravy….and, of course, the Turkey. For many of us, it means short school weeks, vacation time, turkey crafts, and a Turkey Trot. For some of us, we’re gathering with family and friends to enjoy a scrumptious Thanksgiving Feast at one of the Tri-County area’s restaurants, and others are heading to the grocery store to stock up on those last minute ingredien

    Weekend Fun for Tri-County Kids: Holiday Gift Shows!

    Spectacular Crafts Shows in Manitowoc & Sheboygan Counties this Weekend My mom mentioned her ambitious holiday goal to me the other day – to finish all her Christmas shopping by Dec. 1. Okay, her original goal was November 1, but that was beyond ambitious, it was downright crazy! Nevertheless, it means she has only a few weekends left to check off her list and then she can spend the rest of December enjoying seasonal fun. Hmmm . . . maybe she’s on to something. It would be n

    Tri-County Restaurants Serving Thanksgiving Buffet

    Thanksgiving day is all about the food, and enjoying it with a mix of family and friends. But are you already imagining the hours of shopping, prepping, cooking and cleaning? Maybe your space is just a bit too small to fit all the ones you love in one place? Or maybe you are just in the mood to try something new this year? Go out for Thanksgiving dinner this year! Have your feast and eat it, too, while the food is still warm and you aren't worrying about dinner rolls burning

    3 Reasons We LOVE the New Sheboygan Co. Family Nature Club...& 1 Thing That Surprised Me

    My kids love the outdoors. My littlest one likes it so much, in fact, that just running from the car into our house in the pouring rain causes sobs of protest once we’re inside…because no matter what, outside is always better. Me, on the other hand…well, I like the outdoors. I like hiking and walking and the summer sun and pumpkin patch picking. Yet, I admit, I sometimes have a hard time mustering up the imagination for a variety of outdoor play. Other than chasing a ball or

    Election Week - Kid's Vote, Too!

    In case you've been taking cover under a rock (not that I blame you), it's obviously a big day in American Politics...but who says it has to be up to the adults? While we take to the polls this week to cast our poll into the political pool, this can also be a great time to teach our children about the voting process. Our big elections take place only 4 years, so take this chance to have a conversation about Washington D.C., choosing a leader, and how every vote can count. Th
