Spring Season at Hersheypark

Published by

I received complimentary season pass to visit the park in exchange for a media coverage. As always, all opinions are my own. For many years, Hersheypark has been on my bucket list! After moving from NJ to PA on Christmas last year, I finally got the opportunity to visit the park with my family during the winter season of Christmas CandyLane. And now that I am living just a few minutes away from the park I can not wait to explore and have fun at Hersheypark all year round! With that being said, if you haven’t heard the news yet, I am excited to announce that I am one of the Hershey Sweetest Families for 2023! They have chosen me to be part of a blogger team who will be sharing all about Hersheypark experiences! Together with my family, I am hoping to be helpful in answering any questions you might have about the park and also share all of our experiences at the Sweetest Place on Earth!!! So let’s start talking about the spring …

Kittatinny Campgrounds – Our Stay at the Evergreen Riverview Cabin

Published by

We received free lodging at this camping. All opinions are my own. This past weekend we escaped the craziness of the city and headed to the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York to spend a few days at Kittatinny Campgrounds. Kittatinny is the pioneer of the river outfitting industry and has been operating on the Delaware river for 80 years! Their multiple locations are strategically located to provide a diverse selection of river trips and give you the best in riverfront camping. With two campgrounds across two states, there is plenty of space to discover the beauty of the Pocono and Catskill Mountains. Kittatinny Campgrounds has long been our family summer getaway destination. Before Gabriel was born in 2017, we used to go for a camping trip at the Kittatinny every year. We always enjoyed it so much! The contact with nature, unplugging, the sounds of the river and all the river water sports made us want to plan a getaway every summer. So this year, I wanted to take the boys to experience some …

A Day Trip to Sesame Place in Langhorne PA

Published by

I received complimentary tickets to visit the park in exchange for a media coverage. All opinions are my own. This weekend we took a trip down to Pennsylvania to visit Sesame Place amusement park. Sesame Place is located in Langhorne, (just outside of Philadelphia) and is a park themed entirely to the world & characters of the kid’s show: Sesame Street. Since the park is only about an hour away from our home in New Jersey we left at around 9 am (the park opens at 10 am) and got there just a few minutes past 10. Parking at the park is $30 and for preferred parking (which lets you park closer to the park) prices start at $50. We received preferred parking ticket and were able to park pretty close to the entrance! When you arrive at the entrance of the park, all bags will be checked. You can bring in water but no outside food. They will check your bags first and at the second gate, the staff will scan your tickets, and …

Swim Lessons at Goldfish Swim School in Springfield, NJ

Published by

This post was done in partnership with Goldfish Swim School in Springfield, NJ and we received free classes, however, all opinions are 100% my own. If you follow us on Instagram, you probably have seen that the kids are taking swim lessons at Goldfish Swim School in Springfield for the last few months and I wanted to share our experience with swim lessons because they’ve been such a positive asset to our lives. I’m not a parent who like to over schedule my kiddos. I believe in extracurricular activities, but I really cherish our time home and not having to run from event to event yet. However, I also believe that swim lessons are a MUST. Summer is coming soon and we are basically always around water and having a sense of ease knowing my child can get to safety in case something happens is a top priority in my book. My four year old son Gabriel took a few swim lessons when he was a baby. He has always been happy around water. But …

Liberty Science Center- Wobbly World Exhibit

Thank you Liberty Science Center for inviting us to preview the Woobly World Exhibit. As always, this post is 100% my opinion. Now that temperatures are getting colder, I’m always looking for activities where kids can explore, release some energy and have fun. So I was super excited to be invited to spend the day exploring Liberty Science Center in Jersey City and to preview their new exhibit. In addition to the already amazing exhibits and experiences, LSC is also offering an immersive exhibition called Wobbly World which is exclusively for kids 5 and under. Young guests are invited into a bright, interactive, slightly off-kilter wonderland to explore balance, motion, an cause and effect. The Wobbly World exhibit is located on the second floor. Designed by renowned toy designer Cas Holman, it revolves around the concept of balance, draws inspirations from art, physics and an intrepid toddler’s first steps. We had the chance to meet Cas in person and learn more about this amazing collaboration! My boys had so much fun exploring the whole space. …

My Journey Taking Probiotics

Published by

Last month I celebrated my 35th birthday. Every year that I get older I think more and more about my health and how to nourish my body and mind. I think that when we get older we try to make up for all the unhealthy choices made in the past! So at the beginning of this year I decided that one thing I was going to take more seriously was taking my vitamins and supplements. And that’s when I came to know more about probiotics. I started taking probiotics after having tummy troubles. No matter how clean I ate, how much water I consumed or my level of work out, I would randomly have abdominal pain. So thats when I started my jorney to getting to know more about probiotics and introducing it as a supplement on my daily routine. I came across Kyo-Dophilus probiotics and that’s the one I’ve been taking since then. Kyo-Dophilus Probiotics are formulated to support healthy digestive and immune systems. Their probiotics deliver efficacy, quality and extended live cell viability, …

Visiting Cape May County Zoo in NJ

Published by

When my first born was one year old, we took him to our local zoo for a day trip. He was too little and even though he had a good time, he didn’t understand much at that age. So a week ago he started school on pre-K 4 and out of the sudden he started to ask about animals in the zoo and his curiosity grew. So yesterday we planned a fun family day trip down to Cape May to visit the County Zoo. I’ve heard great things about the park and zoo and decided that it was worth the drive. From our house in North Jersey to Cape May it’s about 2 hours and a half drive. So we planned accordingly to go to the zoo first and then spend the day down the shore. The Cape May County Zoo is open every day except for Christmas, weather permitting. The hours of operation are from 10:00 am until 3:30pm in the winter and 10:00am until 4:30pm in the summer. One of the best features …
