No need to worry about spring break, all our snow days pretty much ate up what if any most school districts in the area have for easter vacation.:headache:

Springtime in the Park in Hershey is a very good deal. Obviously, the water rides won't be open, but all of the coasters and the majority of the rides will be, so it is definitely worth the money. As for places to stay, Hershey hotels will be a lot cheaper than Philly. There are plenty of...

Because your kids are young, you might want to look for a store in your area that sells used DS games. We have one near us called Play and Trade and you can get used games for cheap. You can also trade in games for store credit to buy other games. Target also has a section that usually...

Thanks for the help!! :goodvibes

Thought I would throw my two cents in on Hersheypark, since I am a local. Depending on the types of rides your kids like, you might also want to consider Dutch Wonderland, which is in Lancaster, about 35 minutes from Hershey. In the last few years, Hersheypark has really expanded their roller...

I would like an answer to this question as well, thanks.:goodvibes

:goodvibes We have stayed at Silver Lake Resort - Silver Points and had a very enjoyable stay. The resort was recently (in the last two years) refurbished and is a stone's throw from AK and AKL. There is a back entrance to the resort that can have you at either location in less than 5 minutes...

Both my son's school and the school district where I work do Race for Education and it has been extremely successful! Last year I think both schools raised $35,000. :woohoo: As far as prizes, for every five names, each student get a popcicle coupon. Then on Fridays the PTO sells ice cream...

I would reccomend checking hotwire for hotels. I always use them when I go into Philly and always get a good deal. You won't know which hotel you'll get, but as long as you choose either a 3 or 4 star in center city east. you'll be fine. Two years ago, we used hotwire and stayed at the Westin...

We did the surprise trip for DS's first ever trip to Disney. I was originally going to wait until the day we left, but had to change plans when DS got sick they day before we left. I felt so bad for him, I decided to tell him about the trip to cheer him up. Lets just say it worked! I...

I'm guessing you're talking about the "Build a Dinosaur" at the T-Rex restaurant? I haven't been to the one at DTD, but I have been to one in Kansas City twice. The "Build a Dinosaur" is exactly like "Build a Bear Workshop" but without as many choices. Both times we went my DS, who was 6...

I'm still getting over the shock of the whole Hellman's thing...who knew! As for me I am a Turkey Hill Orange Iced Tea girl, though my brother says it's now available in Kansas. Also, gotta love Tastykakes Tandy Kakes and Butterscotch Krimpets. ...so much better than Little Debbies. Let's...

Not sure that anything PS3 is compatible with Wii? I know gamecube games can play on the Wii, but nothing else. I would check with a clerk at your local store (look for a teenage boy) they probably know more about this than anyone and can guide you in the right direction. Our guitar came with...

My DS was also into dinosaurs and still is, I got him a "Dig for Dinosaurs" kit one year for his birthday. I'm pretty sure I got it at either Michaels or ACMoore and it was about $20. Essentially, it's compressed pebbles surrounding plastic dinosaur bones. Granted, it's a little messy and...

I have to say I got a good chuckle when i read this post! While personally, it is a little early for me, the stores have had their holiday stuff up since Halloween! :scared1: I say more power to you. Around here, two of our local radio stations started their 24-hour Christmas music this past...

Blue Cheese and Honey Bruschetta I know this may not sound good, but trust me it really is. 1 French baguette cut into slices, place on cookie sheet and put in broiler for a few minutes until it's toasty - be sure to keep an eye on it because it can burn fast. Place a small slice of...

The Christmas after my Dad died, my brother and I bought a brick paver with my Dad's name and the saying, "Father, Friend, Forever a Fan." The paver is now at Busch Stadium in St. Louis. The Cardinals then send you a matching brick to keep, along with a certificate. My Dad grew up outside St...

In my opnion, no. My Ds just plays on the floor with his friends.

Another vote for Guitar Hero,....and I agree, don't do Areosmith. I guess as far as which games to buy, it depends on what your son is into, sports, music, etc. there really is something for everyone. I also bought DS the game pass at Blockbuster which I think is now a movie/game pass...

My 9 year old DS loves Life too. I actually got him Monopoly this summer for his birthday and he loves that too and is really good at it....here's hoping he becomes a real estate mogul when he gets older and can support his dear old mom.:rotfl: I know there are a bunch HSM games out there...
