THIS IS SO COOL!
Both of my kids love dinosaurs! And rocks… and water. I am totally going to try making this Dinosaur Activity Bins from Happy Hooligans!!!
What’s Going on This Weekend in Sarnia!
Good Morning, everyone! Summer is coming into full swing and the weekends are filling up with fun family activities all over the city and surrounding areas. My kiddos are excited about today’s 20th annual Kids Funfest at Clearwater Arena! SO MUCH TO SEE AND DO! Last year, we didn’t even get to see a quarter of the things there because I couldn’t get my son past the sensory bins that the London Bridge Child Care Service folks had set up in the toddler zone!
Some tips if you are going:
- Dress your kids in brightly coloured clothes that are easy for you to pick out in a crowd in case you get separated. You parents with toddlers who like to bolt know what I mean.
- Pack an umbrella, sunscreen and water!
- Be prepared to walk. Last year, trying to find a parking spot was total crazytown.
Without further ado, here’s what’s going on around Sarnia this weekend:

Mommy & Baby Yoga (Postnatal)
Postnatal is a mommy and baby class for babies ranging from 6 weeks old up to just before crawling age. Post pregnancy can place new strains on one’s body since mom’s are constantly holding their babies in their arms, whether it’s soothing, feeding or playing with them. Whether you are new to yoga or you are a long time yogi, developing and maintaining a regular yoga practice can provide your mind and body with balance and calmness. Best of all, you don’t need to leave your baby behind when you attend a baby-friendly postnatal yoga class.
Benefits of Postnatal Yoga:
* Restore your body through gentle stretching and poses geared towards the post pregnancy body. Visit https://www.cvmus.com/blog/chronic-pelvic-pain-women-causes-and-treatment to know about them in detail.
* Rejuvenate your mind through deep breathing and relaxation
* Establishing a social network with other mommies and their babies while developing a stronger connection with your baby
What happens during a Postnatal Class?
Classes can vary depending on the age of the babies. Mommies may be doing yoga while their babies are lying or sitting on the floor next to them, and in some poses, they may be holding them.
Unlike the massage therapy in Vancouver, Baby Massages to calm, soothe and connect with baby
I encourage mom’s to pay a lot of attention to their babies and to do what is necessary for their baby
General Guidelines
* No Yoga experience is necessary.
*Mommies can begin to attend approximately six weeks after birth and when bleeding has stopped.
*Consult with your family doctor or health care provider before you begin postnatal yoga. You may not be suitable to start a program if you have experienced any postnatal complications, caesarean, or if you have pre existing medication conditions.
* Inform your yoga teacher of any injuries or any parts of your body that is causing you problems/discomfort. Ventura lawyers for pedestrian accidents can help you to claim compensation for accidental injuries. Here is some information on how to determine fault after a fall injury and what are the primary steps that has to be done in the first place.
*This class is appropriate for all levels.*
