Review and Giveaway: Bob the Builder™: Adventures by the Sea
You know you are a parent of a construction loving kid when you not only know all of the characters and the theme song to Bob the Builder™, but you can also drive down the a road under construction and tell the difference between a backhoe loader and an excavator - and worse, you know how to identify the mini, regular and giant versions of said excavator... that's where our family is at right now, so as soon as the new Bob the Builder™: Adventures by the Sea DVD entered our house, it was a big hit in the dvd player!
Bob and his Can-Do Crew are having fun in five new, sea-themed adventures in construction in Bob the Builder™: Adventures by the Sea, which sailed onto DVD, Digital Download and On Demand May 22, 2012 from Lionsgate and HIT Entertainment. From facing fears, correcting mistakes, doing good work and always getting the job done, Bob’s the man and when you’re on his team, life’s a beach!
Travelling With Kids Guest Post: What to do if you lose your wallet
Your wallet is akin to a miniature directory of your identity. Think about it. Your driver´s license, credit card, debit card, medical insurance card and other numbers are all stored together. However, in the event of a lost wallet or stolen wallet, having all of this information in one place greatly increases your risk of identity theft. ProtectMyID (www.protectmyid.com) has 9 great tips for travelers.

This is one of those standby recipes that is an easy and elegant recipe that can easily be doubled if you want to... it is great as a stand alone dish but can also be used as ice cream topping, crepe filling or even as topping for waffles!

Travelling with Kids Guest Post: Traveling For the Budget-Minded Parent
I want to thank Shereen from the aptly named Shereen Travels Cheap for sharing this wonderful post on being budget minded while travelling:
Traveling
For the Budget-Minded Parent
Travel will never be classified as inexpensive
and family travel is even further from making it onto that list, but if you
think sitting at home is the only way to save money, think again. Summer
vacation is coming up fast. Keep your family and your wallet happy with some easy
tricks that can help you stay within your budget and have a great time doing
it.
Sundays In My City - Vacations Past... (Travelling with kids)
For the next three weeks I'm going to be posting daily about travelling with kids! Yesterday, Unknown Mami was kind enough to show us (with great photos of course) why she loves San Francisco and in honor of travelling, I thought I'd share a few of my favorite pics from our family's travels around the US and Canada...

Travelling with Kids Guest Post - I Love San Francisco
I'm so pleased to invite my friend Claudya, also known as Unknown Mami to guest post about San Francisco today as part of Travelling with Kids!
Do you love the city (or town, or village, or you name it) that you live in? I do. I live in San Francisco, CA and I love it.

This city is beautiful, diverse, and inspiring. If you’ve visited, you know what I’m taking about. If you haven’t yet, what are you waiting for? Come and if you have kids bring them.

9 at 9 ~ An Interview with...
I always love the opportunity to feature a fellow Canuck on Acting Balanced... and this week I get to introduce you to my bloggy friend, Ghada from Mama goes BAM. I hope you enjoy her interview as much as I did!
1. Tell us a little bit about your blog:
I am a KiwiCanadian who just relocated through my husband's work from New Zealand in August 2011. I was originally going to start a new blog in April 2011 about my pregnancy and the relocation process. I was too sick and very tired during the pregnancy, so instead ended up only starting this blog once I landed in New York. Mama goes BAM is about my adventures in the Big Apple with Monkeys (my newborn and toddler) all the places we go, people we meet and adjusting to life in New York in general. I also write about trying to live my best life - healthwise (emotionally and physically).
2. How long have you been blogging and what do you love about it?
