Lets be honest here they will love it because they would be happy if you gave them a stick. The holidays are fast approaching so I won't waste your time. Let's jump right into it.


Bedsure Egg Crate Foam Dog Bed with Removable Cover


 

This is an orthopedic foam dog bed and with 4 and a half stars and over 1400 reviews this is sure to be a hit. Plus all pet owners know if there is one thing to be valued with this it is that the cover comes off and is machine washable!

Mudbuster Portable Dog Paw Cleaner



You have definitely seen videos of these. All you do is add a little water, stick your dogs dirty paw in, twist and dab the paw dry. This has tons of positive reviews and is sure to clean your dogs muddy paws this winter season.

Hide a Squirrel 


 

My dog has this and he absolutely loves it . If I had the patience to put the squirrels back in the holes all day he would play with it for that long. This comes in different sizes but I believe the squirrels are all the same sizes so it would work for any dog.


Dog Smart Treat Dispensing Puzzle

   
Another fun puzzle for your dog to solve. Simply hide treats underneath the bones and your dog must figure out how to retrieve them. Give your dog challenges because a bored dog is more likely to be hyper and have behavior problems.


Furbo Dog Camera 


Last but not least a gift for you and for your dog. This camera is the best for checking on your fur baby. With video to your phone and 2 way audio you can speak to your pup while away. The best part though is your can remotely toss treats to your dog while you are anywhere. Buy this now and save $100 too.


Let me know in the comments what kind of dog you have and what their favorite toy is!

How to clean your bedroom when the mess is overwhelming!

If you have ever had a bedroom so messy that you didn't even know where to start then this post is for you!
There are many reasons your room could become a mess. You could have too much stuff, you may have had friends over, you might have been going out and created a whirlwind of clothes and lastly, depression can cause your room to spiral out of control. 
Regardless of how it got to this state here is the easiest way I have found to clean your room quickly and efficiently.

The first step is to make your bed.
This may seem simple but the first thing you want to do is put anything that is on your bed onto the floor and make your bed. We can worry about washing the sheets later if you need to but this will give you a clean space to work off of.

Next, separate your clean and dirty clothes.
The next thing you want to do is separate your clothes into 2 piles. Grab a clothes basket for your dirty stuff and put your clean clothes on the bed. Now wash the dirty stuff and put the clean stuff away!

Pick up your dishes and garbage.
Chances are if you have been feeling down then you probably have been living in your room. This means you probably have lots of garbage and dishes laying around so take these to be washed and throw out your garbage .

Pick up clutter.
Grab another basket and put things inside that do not belong in your room into this basket. When you are done you can either put this basket outside your room to tackle later or put the items aways now.

Next step is to put away the remaining items.
Now everything remaining in your room should belong in there. So pick these items up and put them away. 

Last step!!
Since you are almost finished you might as well quickly wipe down surface and either vacuum or sweep. If you really want a Swiffer wet jet will finish off your now clean room.

I hope this motivates you to clean your room by breaking it into easy steps.

Ultimate Costa Rica Tour

I've been day dreaming of travelling everyday during this past year and can't wait to go again. I want to take you guys on my favorite trip with me and explore the beautiful country of Costa Rica

First I'll say I travelled with a tour group during school which was EF Tours. We took the 10 day Touch of The Tropics tour.

We flew from Toronto into San Salvador, which was pretty neat and then to Costa Rica.

We arrived in San Jose and spent the night in a hotel and the next day we were off to a Coffee Plantation and to explore the Arenal region.

I'm not a big coffee drinker but they are known for their coffee beans so I had to try and buy some to bring home! Definetely a very strong taste.

Next we explored the Arenal region, which includes Arenal Volcano National Park.

This volcano was once the most active in Costa Rica, but for the past few years has been rather quiet!

After this we went back and enjoyed some much needed food which of course involved Plantains, they look similar to bananas and were always fried.

The next day we woke up early had some delicious breakfast and we're off to Lake Arenal ( the water surrounding that volcano) to do some kayaking. I discovered I much prefer kayaking alone then with a partner 😂.

We then travelled to La Fortuna waterfall, now to get to this beautiful place is no easy task. There is approximately 530 stairs you must go down before reaching the bottom which is a lot after a morning of Kayaking. Despite this the view at the bottom is both amazing and relaxing.

One of the places we stayed which was absolutely beautiful!

Next we went to the Hot springs which just were not what I was expecting and probably my least favorite part of the trip.

The following day we traveled to Monteverde. This day just involved alot of travelling. We did stop at a local school though and I would love to post pictures but I will respect their privacy as I didn't obtain permission.

After going back to our hotel, we got up early again to go zipline at Aventura Canopy Tours. This place has the longest zipline in Latin America measuring at 1590. I got scared halfway through so did not make it to the longest zipline and I definitely regret it.

Next up we went horseback riding in Monteverde. It was absolutely beautiful and I love horses so this was a real treat.

We then went on a crocodile jungle safari boat cruise. This felt a bit too close for comfort but was cool to see so many crocodiles.
My favorite day was visiting Manuel Antonio national park. It was quite the walk again to get to the beach but the sand was beautiful and the water was super warm. The only thing that slightly ruined this day was the extreme heat and the hour long walk both ways.

We did quite a few other things on this trip, we explored some more forests, like the Santa Elena Cloud Forest. We went to some markets and explored some towns. We got to explore and relax in San José.
We spent one evening at a Folklore night which was alot of fun and lastly we went white water rafting I can't swim so I was a bit scared but it was all fun.


That's the end of my Ultimate Costa Rica Tour. I hope this gives you some ideas if you ever plan a trip or if you are a teacher or student look into group trips with EF Tours. They offer fun filled trips that include everything for a very good price!
