Don’t forget that in order to win one of the many cool giveaway items that we have you’ll need to comment on one of these event related posts no later than 11:59PM EST on Saturday, May 22nd.

Happy President’s Day
As we begin the winter recess, some families have plans of escaping to a warmer climate, while yet others will take advantage of the abundant snow this year by visiting a winter resort. Whatever you may be planning, be safe, enjoy your time together and make your travels fun and educational.
