Summer’s here and school is out (or will be very shortly), so what can we do to keep our kids’ brains developing?

In Canada, it is Thanksgiving weekend. We have a lot for which to express gratitude, but sometimes it can be difficult to impart this message of gratefulness to our children. However, there are some things we can do.

Wishing you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving together,
