I don’t believe people are already talking about Halloween again. Times fly and I don’t even notice it.

Costumes are becoming very popular around here. There are special parties, private parties and parties in general where people just gather to have fun.

My son, of course, wants a vampire costume. The Twilight Saga is a big influence in the life of big and teen kids.  The vampires are a mystic character that awakens the kid’s curiosity. The fascination for immortality, for flying and running at a high speed are features they all dream of.

My daughter is kind of in a side world. She likes the vampire character, the whole vampire idea but she’s afraid of the vampires. If she saw a boy wearing a vampire costume she would collapse for sure.

Well, regarding myself, the vampire idea is kind of attractive, but I’m not planning to search for adult halloween costumes.I’m sure there will be a lot of vampires out there on Halloween but I won’t be one of them.

If you have two kids at home like me you perfectly know that you have to keep them entertained otherwise they get bored, irritated and it’s difficult to deal with. I knew I was going to be at home the whole Summer so I took advantage of having an Intex pool in the backyard to keep the kids busy.

Having a pool is a great add on to the summer activities, and the kids end up making up other activities related to the pool that are done near the pool.

However the pool is not the only solution. For those looking for alternative activities that can be done in the backyard The Outdoor Toy Company has other ideas for you depending on the space you have available. Trampolines can be very entertaining as well as Garden Swings, Sand Pits, Seesaws or Bikes.

We have a Garden Swing in the garden but my kids don’t use it so, take into consideration the children’s age when buying the outdoor toys.

Keep in mind that every time your kids are outside they need to wear a hat and sun protector to prevent insulation and sun burns.

Spring is here, the weather is improving and sunny day are here inviting us to leave the indoor elliptical and take advantage of the outdoor fresh air.

Exercise is king. It keeps us healthy and fit. The fresh air, although with some pollution, cleans our lungs, the sun tuns us. No need to rush, no need to rough exercises, a simple walk outside does wonders to our body and soul. If you leave near a pine field (like I do) or near a park or forest, the natural view and nature sounds are a excellent healing for our busy daily life.

Use a sun protector, mosquito repellent, light clothes and go outside, exercise and feel alive.
