Cute Valentine Idea: Royal Dance Party

Are you looking to do something special with your prince and princess for Valentine’s Day? If you have not finalized plans, you have to check out Royal Dance Party.  It was created by Monika Csikkel, a former teacher and mother of 3, who started it to fulfill her daughter’s dream of dancing in a royal ball like a real princess
She searched around, but could not find anything like that. Disappointed and frustrated by the fact that there was not a place that would satisfy her daughter’s dream and provide things that grown-ups like (healthy food choices, dancing, massage, make-over etc.) she decided to take matters in her hand and organize a wonderful event that has everything under one roof. She created a corner at the event just for the adults, called “Royal Spa” where parents can have a complimentary massage and make-over while their children are having fun with crafts, bubbles, balloons, and dancing with the princess. 
 

It’s a fun way to spend time with your little prince or princess. Royal Dance Parties are held every couple of months and the best part is that admission to the event won’t set you back an arm and a leg. Admission for the Party is $15 and children under 1 are free with a sibling paid admission.

The next Royal Dance Party will take place this Saturday, February 13th  from 11am to 2pm. For additional info and to purchase tickets head here.

Whip it- Review and Giveaway

Have you seen the movie Whip It? If you haven’t this is definitely a fun movie to watch with your girlfriends. It is a feel good movie and it has a girls rule vibe to it. The movies stars Ellen Page(Juno) who wants more than anything to roller blade and be in the roller derby squad  but has to keep it a secret from her parents.

The movie is Drew Barrymore’s directorial debut and it is fun, fresh and funny.  You will find yourself rooting for Bliss(Ellen Page) and laughing along the way.

Whip it is available on Blue Ray/DVD.
