Staycation: Body Day

This day is all about fun getting to know the body, how to feed it right, and how to use it to make some pretty cool artwork!

Staycation: Around the World Day

It was actually my daughter's idea to learn more about cultures around the world in one day.  Maybe it was the influence of my Russian themed sleepover we had for her Girl Scout troop one year...  Or maybe it's the Paczki I make every year for Mardi Gras... Or that we love to make and eat strawberry crepes on a Saturday morning... Or maybe she just wanted to learn more about the world.  Well, laissez bon temps rouler!

Tron Party - The Real Deal

Last month, I posted about all these super cool ideas I had for a Tron birthday party for my now 7 year old son.  Well, we had the party with 20+ kids and several adults.  From what I've heard, it was a huge success.  Kids that had never heard of Tron or didn't know what it's about are now begging their parents to watch it and learn more.

This post is dedicated to the tips, tricks, and helpful hints I learned from having the party.  You know, the things you didn't read about in the cool "Tron Party" article because I hadn't actually had a chance to test my ideas out yet.

Tron Legacy Party

My family has become recent fans of both Tron (1982) and Tron Legacy (2010).  There's just something about going inside a video game fighting for the user...and those lights!  So, of course my son wants a Tron Legacy ("The new one, mom, not the old one" he says) party for his 7th birthday.  Read on for Tron party ideas.  His party isn't until next week, so I will update this post once I see what's a hit and what bombed.
