Travel can be hectic. My SweetGirl and I recently had the opportunity to spend three fun nights at the Blue Mountain Resort in Collingwood while she competed in a Dance Competition, and I was determined to make the very most of it! We had hot chocolate dates, spent obscene amounts of money at the candy store, took long walks through the village, stayed up too late watching TV, and perhaps best of all spent more than two solid hours creating some masterpieces at Crock A Doodle. A place to pick a piece of pottery and let your creative energy flow. Or for me, more a place to relax, chat and just have fun.
I loved every single minute of it. There is something kind of magical about a couple of uninterrupted hours of one on one quality time with you daughter. I hope she knows how much joy she brings me. I treasure the opportunities to make these memories, and can’t wait to see what adventure we tackle next!

We love to add activities like these when travel takes us to competitions and sporting events with the kids–adds something fun to enjoy with their hard work!

I still have the mugs I did with my children years ago at our equivalent, here in London…they hold lovely memories of quality time spent with my little ones – when they were little !!

I have seen a few bloggers having friend/daughter dates recently at their local pottery (? is that what I would call it?) locations..
I am in love with the idea of doing the same with a few girlfriends of mine! YEARS back I went with a few gals and we had a blast – it would be fun to do it again!
Glad to hear you had a great time with your daughter!
