Parenting and Environment go together, don’t you think?

The Parenting category was quite active over the past 2 days. Real Parenting has a couple of entries – have to say this one on why knitting is such a great activity got my attention: “…knitting takes very little energy to do. Somehow, stealing a few moments to put my sticks to work with a ball of yarn always makes me feel like I’m indulging in a bit of me time, even if junior is driving his trucks over my toes while I’m doing it.”

Swings and Roundabouts is a great resource for area parents: this blog is dedicated to scoping out and rating every playground in the vicinity, including all the CRD municipalities, and even beyond. Great stuff.

The Victoria Stroller blog meanwhile pointed readers to Reptile Day at Swan Lake Nature Sanctuary …which takes us to Environment, too…

…Where Corey Burger’s brief post on the safety of 6-story wood frame construction provides food for thought.
