With 2 working parents (which is very much the norm nowadays) in the summers when our youngest was still in elementary school we registered her in the local summer camps. Every summer she couldn't wait for them to start. Kept her busy and out of trouble. After a certain age kids no longer want to be going to daycare and the Summer Day Camps are a great alternative. But the camps aren't just for older children. The camps are for children aged 6-12 years old, there may also be some half day camps or mini camps for preschoolers, but you will need to check your local municipality.There are a variety of camps to choose from in each municipality from sports related ones to arts and crafts. Half day camps and full day camps, as well some offer before and after care giving parents a variety of options to choose from.
When my youngest aged out she was quite disappointed as she always had a good time. Since then she has volunteered every summer. This way she still gets a chance to be a part of the camps. Once they reach a certain age they can look at applying to become camp leaders or to work in other areas of the community thru the city. The camps are a great stepping stone to teach your kids about volunteering (without them even realizing it) and then they are already familiar with the programs and staff. Giving them a greater chance of getting hired on.
To guarantee your kids lots of fun this summer, be sure to sign them up for summer day camp!
Check out your local community websites for a list of the camps offered and how to register. Some camps do tend to fill up fast so be sure to check out the following links:

We've been here 8 years now and finally my hubby is taking me to Greek Day in Vancouver!
Greek food is one of our family's favourite types of food. So much so I cook it at least once a week. I am really looking forward to sampling some of our favourite Greek foods. Hopefully finding a new restaurant to plan on visiting again.
Watch out for road closures if you're headed to Vancouver as the festival runs from 12- 9pm.
Looking for something fun to do with the family this weekend. Langley's 1st annual Fork and Finger event is this Saturday June 22 from 8am - 5pm.
You can head down the sidewalks of Fraser Highway in Langley for a pancake breakfast and stick around tasting dishes from around the world for the day. From cooking demonstrations to cupcake eating contests, there's even crafts for the little ones...a little bit of something for everyone!

I am sure I blog about this every year...but I love when we can get fresh local produce. When the farmers markets open and you know the vegetables and fruits are truly fresh and local. There's never enough room in our fridge with all the produce. :)
Arts Nursery in Port Kells just started hosting a local farmers market at the beginning of July every Thursday afternoon from 2-7pm until mid-Fall. I haven't had the opportunity to make it there yet...but really do look forward to it. Arts Nursery have local fruit and vegetable farmers, as well as local vendors from european breads, to gourmet soups and fresh cheeses. Stop by Arts Nursery farmers market today and let us know who your favourite vendor is!

"Most amazing group of People who truly work together as a team. Rachael is 100% fully invested in what it is your looking for and is always readily available and updating you on the new / the old and the current market and very professional while being very personable. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Rachael or any one from the Balance Real estate group for any of your real estate needs . Thank you all for making the sell of our home and the buying of our new home a seamless success"
"We had a great experience with Balance selling a Burnaby home. Zach was great to work with, honest, attentive to details, and worked to get the best deal possible. The home was staged well and the drone video was terrific."
"My wife and I had the good fortune of working with Rachel. She was amazing throughout the entire process, working hard to find us exactly what we were looking for! Rachel was calm, organized, and happy to answer any questions we had along the way. Would highly recommend!"
"Balance Real Estate Group Testimony Trust…the foundation of all good relationships. Real estate transactions can be scary. We were so fortunate to work with Bettina and her team at Balance Real Estate Group. They listened to our needs, provided professional insight and then worked with us to develop the plan. We trusted them to look after us and they did an amazing job!!! Thank you Bettina, Kara, Zach, Rachael, Loveleen and Marianne. Your hard work, attention to detail and reassuring approach was greatly appreciated!!! "
"We bought our first home using the Balance Real Estate Group (Kara) back in January 2021 when the market was very competitive. Kara was so helpful and supportive throughout the very stressful process and we were successful in purchasing our home. Fast forward a few years (2023) and we decided to move to another city, so we chose Balance Real Estate Group (Bettina) to help sell our home. Bettina choose the right strategy for selling our home, which brought in multiple offers, resulting in an over-asking accepted offer. When selling, the whole Team came out to stage, assist with pictures, record the video, and so much more. It felt like they were a part of our family! I would highly recommend the Balance Real Estate Group for buying and selling, as they excel at both."
"When I was looking for my first home in 2022 I contacted Balance Real Estate Group and enlisted the help of Rachel and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is really knowledgeable and went above and beyond to ensure I found a place I would be happy with. I would definitely enlist her help in the future if I am in the market to buy/sell in the future and recommend her 100%."
"A superbly professional and caring real estate team. The Balance Group staged and marketed our place to look its best, which generated an astonishing level of interest in our property. They provided expert advice all along the way. This resulted in a sales process that exceeded our expectations and was deeply satisfying to all parties involved. Highly recommend."
"Zach from Balance Real Estate Group sold our moms town home in Surrey in September, closing in November. He was very patient with a senior widow, going into great lengths to explain the selling process and listed out all the possible expenses related to a sale with a specific sale price in mind. As we didn't live in Surrey we could rely and trust Zach for the information he provided. With a couple of offers going sideways, Zach provided continue encouragement and worked hard to find a new buyer. The logistics around the actual sale were challenging but Zach worked hard to make it all happen. He remained in contact with both our mom and us to make sure we all had the needed information. Thank you Zach, we really appreciated your hard work. My mom in law will highly recommend you to anyone looking to buy or sell."
"Bettina and her team undoubtedly made one of the hardest times in my life immeasurably easier by helping me with my Dad's estate. They are very kind, knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate realtors who went above and beyond to help keep my stress at ease. Having never bought or sold a home before, they made the process clear and easy to understand, especially when we navigated unexpected hurdles. I highly recommend using Balance Real Estate Group for selling or buying your next home!"
