Visitors' Guide: Sea-to-Sky Family Fair

With the first annual Sea-to-Sky Family Fair a few days away, we've created this hourly guide to help you plan your visit.

10:00am: Doors Open

If you're keen and able to leave the house without a morning napper in tow, you'll want to be one of the first 250 guests that receives a grab bag full of great discounts provided by some of the fair's 29 exhibitors (there are plenty of door prizes as well). See the full list of exhibitors here.

10:00am: Photography by Susan Carmody

This is a must-do, and it runs throughout the day so unless you'd like a portrait like this, don't worry about rearranging your little one's schedule. Rumour has it that Susan has created a fantastic setting and it's a great chance to have your little one captured by one of our favourite local photographers. What's even better is you'll receive a digital copy of your portrait plus special package rates because, chances are, you'll want your own. All of the portraits will be entered for a chance to be the face of next year's fair.

11:00am: Toddler Yoga with Alpen Loft Yoga

Alpen Loft Yoga is offering Toddler Yoga beginning September 20. Catch this demo and learn about how toddler yoga encourages trust and creativity while releasing anger, fear and sadness.

11:15am: Storytime with Mish Mash Play & Learn

Michelle Pontini of Mish Mash Play & Learn is sharing one of her favourite stories with the fair's (big and) little visitors. This would be a great time to feed your child.

11:30am-2:30pm Bouncy Castles and Face Painting!

Let the indoor fun begin! Just a note - you might want to have Susan take your child's portrait before they are transformed into a giant butterfly or tiger. (2$ donation suggested)

The fair runs until 4pm at the new CN Roundhouse and Conference Centre. Admission is by donation, all proceeds benefit BC Children's Hospital.

We'll be there with a giant gift basket to give away.

See you there!
