Hey Bostonians! The Highland Street Foundation is sponsoring
Free Fun
Fridays again this year. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit museums and
cultural venues across Massachusetts for free!
Among the venues is Capron Park Zoo in Attleboro which is about
50 minutes from Boston. It’s a nice ride out of town to see exotic animals such
as the white lion, red panda, emus and pythons. But for us, the main attraction
is the splash
pad, a fun and exciting zero-depth water playground that thrills children
of all ages. For maximum enjoyment, bring bathing suits and beach clothing and
sunscreen for your kids. The local
pharmacy near me offers a quality selection of sunscreens and other health
and beauty aids for the whole family and they provide more individualized care
than the national chains. You should try them, if you are not yet a customer.

doesn’t stain your clothing. The oil component of these lotions leaves
invisible stains that can become visible over time. These stains may not be
easily removed in normal washing. I usually take stained clothing to a dry cleaner near me for stain removal.
The park does not allow visitors to bring picnics, but there
is a Concession Stand that offers delicious fresh cooked food, ice cream and cold
drinks while you rest at shady picnic benches.
The Zoo is a wonderful place to visit at other times of the
year too. There are educational classes on animals and how to take care of them,
conservation, photography and more. If you have teenage children, you may
consider enrolling them into the Zoo Crew program which gives teens the
opportunity to volunteer at the Zoo. The
Zoo also offers birthday party packages for children – a perfect birthday
celebration for the kid who loves animals!

It’s a new year! That, of course, doesn’t mean that the hardships and uncertainty of 2020 will disappear. However, we can make a conscious effort to declutter our minds by simplifying our lives. So, to maintain that “New Year, New You” mentality, here are some great tips that are easy to implement. Take Care of Your Health If the pandemic has taught us anything, it’s that we need to focus on our health and the health of our loved ones. This doesn’t have to be overwhelming. It can be as easy as starting to take a multi-vitamin every day, if you don’t already. Talk to your doctor about any nutritional supplements that might be beneficial for your specific health concerns. Your local pharmacy should carry everything you need. And you may even be able to get a nutritional consultation from your pharmacy as well. Don’t Stress About the Little Things We all have daily chores that can get ahead of us if we let them. It’s silly to stress about things like housework and laundr...
Winter is the perfect season to snuggle up inside and watch the snow fall through the winter. But winter also brings some risks associated with the snow and cold. Here are a few easy ways to reduce those risks, keeping yourself and your family members safe. Keep Fire Safety in Mind Fire is warm and comforting, but also dangerous. If you use a candle to create ambiance, make sure you put it out before you go to bed. Don’t leave a candle burning alone in a room, either. Also, be careful with space heaters. Make sure you clear anything flammable away from them. If you use propane for heat , make sure your tank is secure. Establish a regular schedule with your propane delivery team, and have your tank serviced periodically to keep it in good shape. Avoid Slips and Falls To prevent slip-and-fall injuries, make sure you keep your walkways clear of snow. Use rock salt or another ice melting agent to get rid of slick ice. If you have an older loved one, make sure they have winter boots wi...
