This weekend we finally broke in our new bike trailer, which I love.
We biked the Heritage Bike Trail in Hilliard. It was a great trail for our first trip with the trailer because the trail is flat and wide.
For the most part, the munchkin was pretty happy riding in the trailer. I packed lots of [...]

This weekend, we had beautiful fall weather which was perfect for a hike. Hiking in the fall is great, because it isn’t too hot or too cold and the bugs aren’t biting.
We went to Old Man’s Cave in the Hocking Hills State Park. I was a little worried about hiking with a 21-month-old, but she [...]

About 20 miles south of Columbus is Slate Run Metro Park and Slate Run Living Historical Farm. The farm is a living historical farm, which means the farm is operated as Ohio farms in the 1880s were.
My daughter loved the farm. We went early in the morning, and were the only visitors in the barn for [...]

She likes playing in the fountains and having the freedom to run around. The fountains are choreographed so that [...]
