It’s summertime and if you haven’t already enrolled your child in a camp, there is still time to do so.  If you don’t do it this year, you can start planning for the next.  This post is to help you navigate the extra challenges of […]

It’s July 14, and not only is it Bastille Day in France (technically la Fête nationale or le 14 Juilet), but France is playing in the World Cup finals tomorrow. In honor of these two momentous events, I’ve put together a roundup of creative ways […]
