I have a guest post today on First2Board on Airport Camps for Tikes to Teens. These summer camps can include everything from visiting the airport fire station, to exploring career opportunities in aviation, to learning to pilot an airplane.
If you are looking for a fun and unique opportunity for your kids, check it out!
Check out my guest post today in The Girl and Globe about one of the best deals for outdoors lovers in the mid-Atlantic states – the Myron Glaser cabin and the cabin system of the Potomac Appalachian Trail Club (PATC).
The club rents out over 30 rustic, but well-maintained cabins within a couple of hours drive from Washington, DC. With rental costs averaging $30 to $50 a night, these cabins are a well kept secret for family getaways.
Many of the cabins are rented to the public, but some of the properties with more amenities, including those discussed here, are only available to Club members.
With membership costs of just $35 a year, it may be a good investment for you if you live in the mid-Atlantic states.
It’s kind of like owning a vacation home or a time share that you can escape to for hiking, or just relaxing, without the expense and hassle of ownership.
I have visited many PATC cabins, but one that I always return to is Glass House, in the Massanutten Mountains of Northern Virginia.
With the Disney movie Planes showing in cinemas, it’s a great time to think about having an airplane-themed birthday party for your little frequent flyer.
I have a guest post on the Mommy Points blog about airports and airport museums that host children’s birthday parties. Check it out!
If you prefer to have your child’s party at home, you can have a lot of fun with this great airplane theme!
When our daughter was younger, we had a successful formula for hosting theme birthday parties. Oriental Trading Company and Dover Publications were our go to resources for inexpensive party favors and decorations. No matter what the theme, the parties all followed the same basic plan.
Here is an easy ten-step guide to planning an over-the-top airplane birthday party.
