Ring in the New Year Anytime You Want with Netflix! #StreamTeam

December 31, 2017 By Tara Leave a Comment

My kids are old enough now that they are up until midnight most days during the holidays, so I’m struggling enough with begging them to go to bed every day. New Year’s Eve will be a snap for them. … [Read more...]

Atypical is Not Your Typical Show About Autism. Thank You Netflix!

August 31, 2017 By Tara Leave a Comment

Atypical, Netflix’s newest original series, hits the sweet spot of accuracy about autism and entertainment.

I am a member of the Netflix Stream Team, so I am lucky to call watching TV work. All opinions, and snacks they send me, are my own. Hands off! Holy cow you guys! Have you seen the new series that … [Read more...]

Berry Berry Baking with Autism

August 11, 2017 By Tara Leave a Comment

Maddy loves to copy what she has seen in her favourite shows. Like a dirty bathtub snowman or a cake as tall as the house! #autism

Maddy loves to recreate situations from shows that she has watched. Like waving and exclaiming, “Bye bye snowman!” as the bath water swirls down the drain, copying Caillou’s actual snowman that he … [Read more...]

To Make Her Laugh #streamteam

June 15, 2017 By Tara Leave a Comment

Maddy’s goal is "to make her laugh” whenever anyone is upset. It sounds like a fantastic idea because laughter is my favourite medicine. Well after Ativan. But it’s hard to beat Ativan.

Maddy finds it extremely distressing when anyone in our family is crying. “To make her laugh,” becomes her mantra as she sets about trying everything she can to make the person feel better. This … [Read more...]

Cheater Cheater Ice Cream Eater

March 1, 2017 By Tara Leave a Comment

TV is very relaxing with the family. I’m building a panic room for myself.

Nerdguy and I celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary this month. And it may all be coming to a screeching halt once he hears my confessions. The kids aren’t going to side with me either, and I don’t … [Read more...]

Start the New Year Refreshed

December 31, 2016 By Tara Leave a Comment

We’re ringing in the new year with Netflix and jammies!

Just when the jealousy begins to creep in over not having something glamorous to do on New Year’s Eve, I remember that pyjamas rule and high heels drool. I’m typing this at 1:30 in the afternoon of … [Read more...]

Countdown to Christmas

December 18, 2016 By Tara Leave a Comment

Maggie was excited to put out milk and cookies for Santa. 9 days early.

Maggie has been a big fan of advent calendars for a long time now. Unfortunately, even though they are not the chocolate kind that her mother used to pop open all in one day like some kind of carnival … [Read more...]

Mothers & Daughters and the Gilmore Girls

November 30, 2016 By Tara Leave a Comment

Never accept an invitation to attend therapy with your mother. #GilmoreGirls #StreamTeam

I didn’t watch Gilmore Girls when it was on TV, because I am late to everything that is awesome. And I am super stubborn about watching a series when I haven’t been in on it from the beginning. And … [Read more...]

Halloween Help for Mummy

October 31, 2016 By Tara Leave a Comment

Mad Scientist, a princess, and Piglet Halloween costumes.

It’s pretty widely known that Halloween is right up there on my list of annual things I hate, that I just have to “get through,” along with invasive gynaecological procedures and wasp season. So I … [Read more...]

Family Movie Night – How to Trick Your Tweens into Snuggling

October 21, 2016 By Tara Leave a Comment

We love a good family movie night. Snacks, cozy fur blankets, and favourite slippers are essential.

While most of my family has plenty of Netflix time, it’s often done in pairs, or on our own. Stolen moments of sanity in the middle of a workday when Nerdguy and I will heat up leftovers for lunch and … [Read more...]
