The End of Summer 
Is Not The End of
Fun at Sesame Place
Seriously, does anyone else think the summer just flew past us this year?
For my family, it seemed to pass by even faster than usual.
There is one good thing, the summer may come to a sudden end, but 
the fun will keep on going at Sesame Place in Langhorne, PA.
You only have a few days left before Sesame Place goes back to their weekend schedule but there is still plenty of time to enjoy all the fun.
The characters will be entertaining us all in one of the many shows, 
the rides will be spinning and the parade will be rolling by.
You can still enjoy the water rides, too, until the Fall chill settles in.
Besides the regular fun, the park has a few weekend special events going on.

The Oogieloves In The Big Balloon Adventure in Theaters Oogust 29th! Rated G!

The Oogieloves
In The Big Balloon Adventure
In Theaters Oogust 29th!
Rated G
Recently, my family and I had the pleasure of attending the 
World Premiere Party and screening of 
The Oogieloves in The Big Balloon Adventure in NYC.
Before screening the movie we had a chance to enjoy a great party that included 
games for the children(a winner every time), jugglers, stiltwalkers with lasos, and more!
We feasted on yummies including burgers, veggies and more!
Everyone enjoyed the cotton candy machine, hot popcorn
 and milkshakes made to order! There was a sundae bar with toppings of choice, 
and a monster sized Candy Bar table! 
One of my favorite stops during the party was at the photo stop, where 
our family decked out in accessories and was shot on green screen only to have 
The Oogieloves appear behind us in the finished photo!

Great chatting with the producers.
Our fun continued as we entered the theater to see
the children were greeted and given some light up butterfly wands 
that would later be used throughout the movie!
This movie was such a breath of fresh air!
 First of all it’s Rated G, so there
are no situations or words that are inappropriate  and need to be explained.
Of course, I think the Rated G should stand for GREAT!
Kenn Viselman’s vision came to life on the screen and also in
 the audience as children as well as adults 
danced and sang along with The Oogieloves from the screen.
Most of us try to keep our little ones seated during the movie, 
but this movie lets the children experience the big screen
 in a way never ventured into before.

Ken Wiselman and J.Edgar

The bigger than life Oogieloves, each with their own personality, 
captivated the audience with their innocence from beginning to end.
As a former teacher with twenty years in the classroom, this 
absolutely was a dream come true.
My five year old daughter was in awe of The Oogieloves as well as
children much younger and older.
It was wonderful to look around the audience and see the interactions not only 
between the screen and children, but between the families. 
There was a sea of smiles!
The all star cast includes 
Toni Braxton, Cloris Leachman, Christopher Lloyd, 
Chaz Palminteri, Cary Elwes, and Jaime Pressly.
This is a total feel good movie that you can honestly enjoy with your
children! 
The Oogieloves in The Big Balloon Adventure is in theaters Oogust 29th!
Don’t let this movie pass you by.
Our family loved it and so will you!
The Oogieloves in The Big Balloon Adventure 
Run time: 83 minutes
Rated G
Synopsis: Balloons escape The Oogieloves just before the big 
surprise birthday party for their friend Schluufy (the pillow).
Follow Goobie, Zoozie and Toofie as they set out on an adventure through 
Lovely Loveville to find the five magical balloons in time for the party!
Of course they can’t do it alone and call on the help of 
new friends they make along the way and old friends
J.Edgar(their caregiver vacuum), Windy Window(the magical window),
and Ruffy(the not so happy fish).
 Of course, The Oogieloves will need your help (the audience), too!
So much fun! Enjoy!

3decades3kids Celebrates Back to School with “HERSHEY’S CAMP BONDFIRE”.

3decades3kids
Celebrates Back To School With
HERSHEY’S 
CAMP BONDFIRE

As every summer draws to a close our family likes to gather together and reminisce about all the fun things we have been a part of throughout June, July and August. It seems that when summer begins  it will last forever and yet somehow it skips past us faster and faster each and every year. 
As a family we always try to make face going back to school with a very positive outlook.
Since my three children all begin school at different times, 
we started our end of summer celebration the day before my oldest son headed back to college.
No one could think of a better family and bonding activity than making S’mores. 
If you know my family, you know that we like to make s’mores no matter what time of year it is.
You can catch us in the middle of the winter making our oven s’mores accompanied by some cozy hot chocolate or in the spring time with our microwave s’mores. 
But our “Back To School” HERSHEY’S CAMP BONDFIRE s’mores celebration
 was especially memory filled.
Everyone helped out, from youngest to oldest preparing to make the yummy treat.
Lucky for me there are three main ingredients to s’mores and I have 
three children, so it all worked out.
After assembling the HERSHEY’s chocolate, marshmallows, and graham crackers the kids headed to gather up some sticks for the marshmallow roasting and also to build our quick little fire pit. 

Our HERSHEY’S CAMP BONDFIRE was honestly a sight to behold and quite the
 bonding experience for our family of five.
We sat around the little campfire we created and told summer stories, 
talked about the upcoming school year, and had some good laughs, some very good laughs.
It was great to just kick back, relax, spend quality time with just the five of us, and of course making  the s’mores was just the icing on the cake! 
HERSHEY’S CAMP BONDFIRE was definitely one of our family’s precious memory moments of the end of this summer and the beginning of a wonderful school year! Wishing you a wonderful end of summer and happy school year!
