About UsThis site was created by Melissa Vroon and Voula Martin, two Calgary women who have known each other a long time. One day, Melissa said to Voula, “Why isn’t there a website where you can go and find all the fun things to do in the city with the kids? Someone should make a site like that.” And Voula replied, “So why don’t we create it together?” And here we are.
Melissa is mommy to Evan and Anya and Voula is mommy to Helen and Billy. And we know what it is like to try to find something fun to do with them.
When you're new to parenting or new to the city, you don't know what activities are out there or even where to look for them. That's why we came up with this site - We are out there with you, taking our kids to the parks, festivals, museums, recreation centers and other attractions.
We also have the somewhat unique experience of having grown up in Calgary, so we get a kick out of taking our kids to the same places our parents took us!
But we also wanted to take it one step further and make it more personal than any other site you may find. That is why we blog!
Through our blog, we will share some of our experiences, so that places you've never been might be more real. And since blogs evolve, you’ll notice that while we write about activities and events we have been to, often we will just share a bit of our lives and how we cope with the inanities of raising children.
We also offer a free monthly newsletter to anyone who wishes to subscribe. Some of the features in our newsletters include recipes, cute kid of the month pictures, lifestyle and parenting articles and funny stories that readers share. *We will never share your email with anyone and use it only to send you the newsletter.
Although we do our best to ensure the information provided on this site is up to date and accurate, we rely on tips from family, friends and readers, other websites and newspapers for the information we post. If you see something that you think should be on this site, email us! If you find an error, email us! ! We will do what we can to accommodate requests, and immediately remedy errors.
We hope you enjoy this site, find it useful and visit often. And we would love to hear from you!
