American Ballet Theatre The Nutcracker At Segerstrom Center For The Arts

 

Nutcracker-segerstrom

When I was a little girl, I was fascinated by the Nutcracker Ballet. I would often twirl around in my living room, in my tutu and pretend I was Clara. I was mesmerized by the grace and beauty of this magical show. I am thrilled to announce that this holiday show is now playing at Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Orange County now through Sunday December 17th.

1. Eat cookies with Mrs. Clause! Children have the opportunity to decorate cookies in the Gingerbread House with Santa’s leading lady.

2. Enjoy hot cocoa with a Great Wolf Kid. Guests can customized their cocoa by adding toppings, or a favorite libation for the parents.

3. Prance the evening away with neon glow sticks under falling snowflakes at the Snow ‘n’ Glow Dance Party.

6. Play In the GINORMOUS Indoor Water Park 

The water park is a MUST and one of our favorite places to play at the resort. Take a plunge on one of their incredible water slides, or just relax and float on crooked creek. (my personal favorite)

7. MagiQuest Game– My son really enjoyed the MagiQuest game! Immerse yourself in Vellara, the realm of imagination, as you help the Guardians to protect the realm portals. Along the way, befriend the Treetop Pixies, battle the evil dragon, Charlock, fight to defeat the Goblin King, and earn the title of Master Magi.

8. One Ten Paw Alley-My pack loves to bowl…  Put on your own paw wear and find out how our half-length lanes and five-pound balls make bowling come alive for toddlers, teens and tall ones alike.

9. Howl At The Moon-Oooh check out the “Howl At The Moon” glow in the dark mini golf course!  Dazzlingly colorful, nature-themed challenges follow glowing pathways under a moonlit sky.

Take a journey to this South American country through the passionate dance and music that embody The Spirit of Argentina. One of Argentina’s greatest cultural exports, Tango Buenos Aires is considered the most authentic tango ensemble performing today.

Mathnasium Learning Center In Laguna Niguel

mathnasium-learning-center

Does your child struggle in Math?

If so, there is a solution

This school year my son started fourth grade, and he has been introduced to more complex and difficult math concepts. He began the school year with some struggles, and he was a bit discouraged. On test days I noticed a pattern. He would say, “Mom I don’t feel well. I don’t want to go to school today.” As a mom, it saddened me t0 see how this affected his confidence level.

Just when we started to look for a math tutor, Mathnasium in Laguna Niguel came to the rescue! We were thrilled to learn about this incredible math center in OC. It is staffed by college-educated, Mathnasium-certified instructors who work with each child individually.

The program began with an assessment to determine his current math level. This assessment is designed to pinpoint a child’s strengths and weaknesses. These results provide the foundation from which Mathnasium constructs the student’s customized learning plan.

My son learns math in a friendly, productive learning environment and are taught by caring and knowledgeable instructors well-versed in integrating Mathnasium’s techniques with the math curriculum used in local Orange County schools.

Compensation: Thank you Mathnasium  for letting my son try your tutoring service for free. All opinions are my own. 

mathnasium-learning-center

My kiddo raves about his tutors and looks forward to going every week!

I love the fact that the program is tailored to my son’s individual needs, and he can also take in his homework to work on as well.  The instructors spend the first half of the time working on his math gaps. During the second half of instruction, he is working on his homework given to him in class.

The Mathnasium Method™ uses a unique combination of mental, verbal, visual, tactile, and written techniques to help children really understand math and has been developed over more than 40 years of practical experience with thousands of students.

mathnasium-learning-center

I love the time flexibility and the fact that my son can go on weekends…

mathnasium-learning-centerAfter starting this wonderful program, I know my kiddo will get the tools he needs to be successful. But most importantly, he will be confident and be more enthused about school!

Mathnasium focuses solely on math and operates on the core belief that virtually any child can excel in the subject. The Mathnasium Method™, implemented at more than 700 Mathnasium centers in the U.S. and abroad, is a unique program that provides each child with a customized learning plan and personalized instruction in a way that makes sense to them.

5 Awesome Reasons To Ride OC Bus With Your Kids

Do you ride on the bus with your kids? If not you should!

When I was teenager, I often traveled in and around Orange County on the public bus with my friends. We would travel to South Coast Plaza for shopping, head to Newport Beach for a swim, go to Downtown Santa Ana for authentic Mexican food, or travel to Tewinkle Park to hang with our friends. We were carefree and loved to get around town to explore. Over the years, I have learned that our public transportation has great value, and is a great service worth teaching my children about.

I recently decided to take advantage of our awesome OC Bus transit, and go on an adventure with my kids. I spent a lovely stress free afternoon with my family, and let OC Bus do all the driving!

AD: Thank you OC Bus for sponsoring this post. All opinions are my own.

It was so nice to immerse ourselves into our community, get fresh air, and save on gas.
We headed to The Shops at Mission Viejo to shop, and we enjoyed a tasty lunch at the food court. The drive up on the OCTA bus was smooth and convenient. My kids have learned to navigate, purchase tickets, and use their mobile devices for bus times and updates. OC Bus makes it super easy to navigate around town and get to our favorite destinations.

OC Bus has made many improvements on their buses. They are comfortable, clean, and easily accessible. They have also improved their service and frequency throughout Orange County!

Here are 5 awesome reasons to teach your kids to ride the public bus

1.Get To Know Your City

While on the bus my son peered through the bright lit window to see the town pass in front of his eyes. He said, “ Mom, when can I pull the chord to stop?” He waited eagerly since this was a highlight for him on our trip. He also spotted our public library, City Hall, and our favorite hiking trail. It’s important for kids to feel that they are part of their community.

Children will:

  • Become immersed into their community
  • Become exposed to different cultures and age groups
  • Learn how to use their local public transit
  • Learn where the bus stops and the train station is located
  • Get to see the city’s market places and city employees at work
  • Familiarize themselves with where museums and important city and government buildings are located

2. Public Transportation Helps The Environment

My family is very passionate about the environment, and we want to make a difference by using public transportation! The more people on buses means less congestion and pollution…

We not only enjoyed ourselves on the bus, but we know we are helping the environment by:

  • Improving air quality
  • Reducing greenhouse gas emissions
  • Facilitating compact development, conserving land and decreasing travel demand
  • Saving energy

3. Using Public Transportation Reduces Stress

Traffic can be extremely stressful. I often feel overwhelmed and agitated while driving my kiddos around town.

While on the bus, I had time to chat with my kids, text, and I even had time to read. These things are hard to do when your world is centralized around the traffic ahead of you. As overdramatic as it seems, this short period of time on the bus put me at ease.

  • Commuters can sleep, relax, read, and text on the bus. How awesome is that?

4. Kids Learn to be “Street Smart”

My girls often use OCTA buses for commuting to school. OC Bus has not only been reliant, but it has taught them:

  • How to navigate and commute around town
  • How to be independent
  • How to follow street signs and the rules of the road
  • How to be alert and be safe in the city

It’s never too early to teach good riding habits! When they’re old enough, brief your child on the basic transit etiquette…

5. Sight Seeing

OCTA offers transportation to a variety of unique destinations. Adventure is out there, whether it’s a visit to a local hang out spot, the marketplace, or the local Farmer’s Market.

Other great places to visit with kids:

  • Malls
  • Movies
  • Parks
  • Beaches
  • National monuments
  • Museums

The bus is a great alternative to cars and my kids truly enjoyed it. We can’t wait to ride again!

“You can’t understand a city without using its public transportation.” ~ Ozan
