The Internet star of the hour is named Bayley, the beautiful dog that quickly went viral as people found he looked a lot (too much!) like Snoopy, the famous dog from the Charlie Brown (Peanuts) cartoon.

If so, you may have felt or participated in the incredible wave of popularity of The Super Mario Bros. Movie, which is destroying everything in its path!
Indeed, and somewhat against all odds, even though it was expected to do well, Illumination’s animated film starring Mario (Chris Pratt), Luigi (Charlie Day), Peach (Anya Taylor-Joy), Donkey Kong (Seth Rogen), Toad (Keegan-Michael Key) and Bowser (Jack Black) is breaking box office records.

Let’s remember that last January, Osaka announced that she was expecting her first child, and then put her networks in radio silence mode.
She also made fun of herself by saying she was too introverted since the beginning of her pregnancy, while having fun saying that it took Rihanna to get her out of the house, after attending the Super Bowl and the singer’s superb maternal demonstration last February!
Montreal Canadiens captain Nick Suzuki and his teammates visited sick children at the Montreal Hospital, CHU Sainte-Justine and the Shriners Hospital on Thursday (December 8).
It has been a tradition for more than 50 years for Tricolore players to visit hospitals at the beginning of the holiday season. This year marks the 56th edition of this wonderful holiday tradition.
Let’s recall that the Canadiens were renewing this tradition this year, as it was the first time since 2019 that the players came in front of the children to get a smile.
Obviously, Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield were the favorites of the kids. In fact, Caufield believes that players should do this kind of activity more regularly.
Sean Monahan was present with his orthopedic boot, as were Mike Hoffman, Jonathan Drouin, David Savard and Carey Price, who was proudly wearing his cowboy hat.

Add to this line-up the dream chasing birds, the beautifully dressed puppets on stilts that will move in “a choreographed march, punctuated by magical moments and mischief”.
The nutcrackers will also walk around, they are an inescapable symbol of Christmas.
In short, a little “pro” advice, arrive in advance if you want to meet this character with a white beard and a rounded belly because his charisma attracts a ton of people.
Whew! Family cleaning! Let’s just say it’s not the kids’ favorite family activity, but it’s necessary from time to time!
Depending on the age of your children, they can participate and help at their own level. There are many tips to encourage them to clean up in a fun way, here are a few!
The little ones

Young children love to imitate their parents. Often, your child will want to clean with you! From 2-3 years old, the child can put away toys with or without help. It is important to give plenty of praise to the child who puts things away. All children (even adults!) seek positive attention. If the child gets it while putting things away, he will want to do it again! You can also turn tidying up time into a game. For example, you could tidy up with tongs (you’ll work on fine motor skills too). You could also have a tidy-up race! The first one to finish wins a prize!
Also, to help the little ones sweep up, you could glue coloured sticky paper on the floor in the shape of a square. This way, the child will have to bring the dust in the square. It’s fun and much easier!
Bigger kids

No matter how old your kids are, a visual schedule can help.
Make a little chart for yourself as a family that shows everyone’s tasks with beautiful pictograms as well as the time frame for completing those tasks.
This will make everyone’s expectations clear.
In addition, you could determine together rules regarding household chores and consequences for not following the rules. So sit down as a family and talk about it!
Young people who feel involved in setting the family routine are more likely to participate. And, even with teenagers, it’s possible to turn housework into a game!
