Moms of Buffalo

Ok I realize you are going to be like 'duh I know where the ships are!' But I will say if you plan on doing a Bison's game this year (I usually go to 3 a summer with Derek) make an entire day of it. Yesterday I talked about the Hatch and Marina...

Ok Mom's this one will have to wait for a bit - maybe March with the weather we are having?! - but lunch at the Hatch and hanging at the Buffalo Naval Park after is for sure a plan. Granted you may not always run into Robbie from the Goo Goo Dolls like me Derek and his cousins did - but eating outside at the Hatch is a summer MUST do for 2016...

2015 was a great year for the United States economy and we are entering the brand new year full steam ahead. With the American dollar reaching new heights and gaining strength, lets look at 7 every day items that will see very low price drops and even record low prices in 2016...

Whenever I take Derek to hike the Gorge trails in Niagara Falls I am always saying to myself WHY are there not more people hiking here? YES Mom's you can easily take these trails safely with your kids ages 3 and up if you don't do anything dumb :) - Put this in your 2016 calendar for sure...

Ok,  I get it. You know what a library looks like! Maybe not my most creative post for the Moms of Buffalo but be honest – when is the last time you took your kid to a library? So back in the day I used to take my son Derek ALL the time. Like ever...

Well Mom's I wont' write too much here I will let the pictures tell the story! This is one of those 'put on your 2016 calendar' cause you can't do until later in the year. I can tell you I have taken my son Derek since he was 5 and he LOVES going every year...

Yes, I take my son Derek pretty much everywhere. Almost all of these 'Mom's of Buffalo' ideas I have been with him first hand. I get if you live in Erie County you will most likely go outdoor  staking at Canalside, which I totally get. BUT...

Ok looking for indoor fun for you little one's? Place to have a birthday party for kids ages 1 to 9? Look no further than 'Leaps N Bounce' off Main street in Clarence! Right past Transit road heading East turn left at Bryant and Stratton Way (4401 is address) and there it is...

As we keep building up your 2016 calendar I have another cool place for you. If you have kids 2-14 they will love the pool this summer at Clearfield Community Center in Amherst! The pictures speak for themselves....it's SUPER cool. If you are not a resident with an ID card you will have to pay $5 for the day but it's well worth it...

Buffalo seriously is the City of Good Neighbors. The World's Largest disco sees about 7,000 people downtown at the Convention Center and helps Camp Good Days every year. It's been on Good Morning numerous times and the author of 'Party Across America' calls the event one of the top 5 events in the United States...

Ok, moms if you have never taken your kids to Fatima Shrine near Lewiston – do it this summer! Granted it's not 'Christ the Redeemer' in Rio, but the statue of Mary when you climb the steps is worth the walk up! Two flights of stairs, 63 steps lead to the Top of the Dome, where stands the huge statue that is Our Lady of Fatima. It's 13 feet high a...

Ok, at this point your 2016 calendar should be filling up! I have another place for you to have lunch and hike with a amazing views. Luensman Overview park in Chautauqua county! Ok, granted it's only open May 1-November 1 but put in your calendar now for like Noon-2p one day...
