Saturday, February 19; Sunday, February 20; and Monday, February 21 from 10am – 5pm at the International Centre, 6900 Airport Road, Mississauga (enter Hall 3). Read to the bottom for your chance to Win it!

Toronto Kids-Fest will be happening all Family Day weekend long and features a giant indoor inflatable playground and a variety of other shows and activities for children 12 and under. Free admission includes a chance to play the latest Pokémon Nintendo games, colouring, face painting, Jungle Cat World wildlife presentations, Universal Studios Canada character meet-and-greets and a bike course by Educational Kids Play.

Wristbands for the inflatable playground go for $25 each (available Sat/Sun only ) and there’s also pony rides, carnival games, battery-operated bike rides and a preschool play area available for an extra charge. (Note that parents of children young enough to need supervision on the inflatables will also need a wristband or tickets.)

Win it! I have a Family Pack of 4 passes to be exchanged for wristbands upon arrival (good for either Sat. or Sun., but not Mon.) to give away to one lucky reader. Drop me a comment and I’ll do a draw (using random.org) on Tuesday, February 15 at 9pm to choose the winner. Greater Toronto Area only.

Saturday, December 11 and Sunday, December 12 at 3 PM at the NFB CINEMA – 150 John St. Toronto.

The NFB (National Film Board) Mediatheque is screening family-friendly animated shorts for free this weekend. Just show up, no reservation needed. It’ll be about 70 minutes of classic and new animation. This makes lugging the whole gang downtown for some shopping entirely worth it. Continue reading 'Free Cartoons Courtesy NFB Mediatheque'»

Join me for story time this weekend as part of Playhouse Disney’s birthday tour of Ontario malls. I will be reading one of the wonderful Stella and Sam stories by Canadian author Marie-Louise Gay to promote a new animated series based on the books. There will also be games, activities and giveaways happening all day; it’ll be fun!
