October Business Feature: Fairytale Land is THE Fairytalatest Party destination

 

 

We personally want to welcome you to Fairytale Land! With another NEW location & 5 themed parties at this magic place, what could be more fun? Our ambition is to become one of your favourite destinations, to make memories and experience the treasured times with your children and loved ones. This year we celebrated our 6^th year anniversary with an opening of our largest location in Mississauga.

Fairytale Land dress-up parties are designed for girls and boys, ages 18 months to 12 years old and include fantastic costume selection, glittery make overs, face paint, tones of dancing, karaoke singing, craft, free take-home gifts, themed activities and time in the Fairy Godmother’s dress-up salon. Facility programs are two hours long and timely scheduled. Princess and Enchanted party programs are run by minimum two Fairy Godmothers (actresses). Rock Start and Glitz Glam parties are run by minimum two dancers. Parents, family and friends are always welcome to stay and also enjoy our interactive program and delicious fresh catering options. 

Fairytale Land is strictly nut-free facility. Unlimited healthy food like fruits, veggies and pizza are freshly prepared by our chef during the party and is included in every package for the children. We are also well known for our fantastic cake and loot collection. Parents love the fact that we take care of every little party detail and they need to bring only the camera and relax for two hours. Flexibility is also given to parents who like to bring their own cake and loots, as long as the cake is made in the nut-free bakery.

 

 

We also bring our popular Fairytale Land program to your home. Parties are custom designed to suit children ages and interests and are hour and a half long. Favorite Princess is always joined by Fairy Godmother. Varity of costumes and accessories, plus balloons and music is brought so children can enjoy the same program like in the facility.

The Birthday Girl always gets extra special treatment and it’s our goal to make her Best Birthday Ever. Popular package add-ons include our famous photo loots and loot bags collection, cake pops, cakes, candy, spa items and more!

 

 

Because of the popular demand we are again offering for all December 2013 and January 2014 bookings the $285 Inclusive Princess party special for smaller birthday groups. Feel free to visit our website FairytaleLand.ca for all the information and to view the three photo gallery pages and the two minute video of the program. You are also welcome to come and visit us for a tour.

September Business Feature: Fee Fi Fo Fun Costumes - On Oakville Moms

What is your business? Fee Fi Fo Fun Costumes helps people get into disguise for dance, school, house parties, camp, vacations, corporate events, birthday parties and, of course, Halloween.

What influenced you to open this business? First, terrible DNA. Half my immediate family have had life ending illnesses. After my little sister died of stomach cancer at age 46, I wondered what I was waiting for and made a huge number of life changes including ending a 22 year marriage, going to University, selling my cottage to open my business and building a house from scratch with a fella that I adore.

I'd been working part time at a major party store. I heard the same thing over and over from parents about needing a friendly, knowledgable, year-round, convenient costume service and that became the mantra for Fee Fi Fo Fun Costumes.

How do people find you? If you know exactly what you want, you can order it on-line at my web shoppe www.feefifofun.ca Most often people call me and use the Costume Concierge Service because they aren't sure what they want, but you can also send messages via email info@feefifofun.ca Twitter
@feefifofunfaery or Facebook https://facebook.com/feefifofuncostume
What information do you need from me? I need to know WHO it's for, WHEN you need it, WHY you need it and WHERE you are located. If I don't have it, I'll try and find it for you or tell you where it is.

How are the products delivered? If you are nearby, I deliver your accessories and costumes, all steamed and ready to wear at no extra cost.

What if I live out of your area? if you are not nearby, I can arrange for flat fee delivery, or I ship by Canada Post at cost.
What are your hours? I'm available 7 days a week to take orders, but only talk and deliver locally between the hours of 9-5. Sometimes it's same day. Non-local deliveries are a function of which service you chose and where you live.
What do you mean by local? If you live in the South of Mississauga, Oakville or Etobicoke then you are considered local. If you are North, for example of Dundas, then I am happy to meet you along the Lakeshore corridor of Mississauga at a library or coffee shop.

Some examples of my clients: A work-from-home Etobicoke entrepreneur Mom who buys gifts on-line, like our Batman Kit, for birthday parties. A King City mom who found a note on Sunday night and I delivered a costume for a school play right to the school. Three couples on a Greek cruise with a pirate themed night. A teenager needing a wig for FanExpo. A local business with needing pirate gear for a team-building event. Ten nurses needing make-up and a tutorial for the Toronto Zombie Walk. A wife buying disco for her herself and husband for a neighbourhood theme party. A Mountie Dad in New Brunswick ordering a Mountie Uniform for the Ring Bearer at his upcoming wedding.

Rising Sun Martial Arts in Oakville

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you think about Martial Arts? Is it Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Ninja Turtles, maybe Kung Fu Panda? Do you picture smashing bricks to pieces with your forehead? Or holding a perfect split with each foot balanced on a chair? Or, like many people, are you unsure what to think or expect when you first walk into a Martial Arts class?

In truth, there are many different elements to Martial Arts. Perhaps not all brick smashing and mutated turtles, however. Martial Arts training, such as Tae Kwon Do at Rising Sun Martial Arts, aims to achieve both physical, and mental strengths. Not only does training develop a strong and fit body, but also a strong personal character enriched with confidence and self-esteem.

With each Martial Arts class comes lessons about how to defend yourself effectively and efficiently, and also how to develop personal skills such as:

• Respect for Teachers, Peers, Parents, and Ones Self
• Dicsipline
• Self Control
• Perseverence
• Modesty
• Integrity
• Courtesy
• Determination

Students develop a strong sense of self, and the knowledge, courage, and confidence to avoid negative situations. Students also learn personal skills that they can take with them into the real world.

People of all ages can learn and benefit from Martial Arts training. There is no such thing as too young or too old, too big or too small, too unfit, or even disabled. All those who wish to develop the best personal character possible, and who want to gain confidence, ability, and strength, can benefit. Everyone has the ability to develop a Black Belt Attitude, which is all about never giving up and always trying your best. That is how you become the best YOU possible.

Rising Sun Martial Arts offers programs for kids, teens, adults and families.

We offer:

Little Ninjas (ages 3-6), Kids Tae Kwon Do (ages 5-12), Adult Tae Kwon Do (ages 12+)

Haidong Gumdo (Korean Samurai Sword), Weapons classes ( Bo,Nunchucks, more)

Cardio Kickboxing and Boot Camp fitness classes

After School Programs, Summer/Winter Camp, Ninja Birthday Parties

The benefits to Martial Arts training are endless, and limitations exist only in one’s mind. Kids, Teens, and Adults should never be afraid to try something new. You never know, you may discover you can do more than you ever thought possible. We all have hidden powers inside us. Unleash them with Martial Arts training.

Mommy Bootcamp in Oakville and Mississauga

 

Calling all moms who want to awaken both that “athlete” and “mommy” within!

I’ve heard it said, and I’ve seen it in person. Moms ask: “How can I be both athlete and mommy at the same time? “ Moms, exercise and train WITH your baby! Here’s how we do it at Mommy Bootcamp:

Mommy Bootcamp brings moms together for fun and camaraderie! This is important because it’s the people you work out with that keep you on track to achieving your goals.

Mommy Bootcamp challenges the beginner who hasn’t ever exercised, challenges the new mom who stopped when she became pregnant, and the mom who did a marathon at 6 months pregnant. Your trainer is there to set you in motion to train to your ability and a wee bit beyond. Every workout.

Mommy Bootcamp engages your baby! Your baby is your weight resistance in the park and the one you kiss when doing your pushups and planks. And at the end of your workout, your baby is the one we cheer on during baby songs and activities.

Mommy Bootcamp is about sharing stories and asking questions about motherhood. Your trainers are moms themselves who have been through what you’re going through or are going through it with you!

So what are you waiting for? Join Mommy Bootcamp today and any time during a session. The next sessions begin the week of September 9. Go to www.mommybootcamp.ca to register!

NEW! Classes now offered in Oakville and Mississauga!
