As much as we love this season of giving, there comes a time when there are just too many toys under the tree. It’s said happiness is more readily found through experiences rather than things. Stretch out the spirit of the season with these gifts that will stay in their hearts and minds for a long time to come.

Breakfast with the Penguins
Zoo visits are so much more memorable when you get up close and personal with the wildlife. Tuck into pancakes with these adorable creatures and learn cool factoids during your private viewing.

Mush!
Feel a rush of adrenaline as you lead a pack of huskies through the scenic Spray Valley near Canmore. With Howling Dog Tours, wee ones can ride in the dog sled or, if they’re old enough, drive the team through the snowy woods.

We know it’s true: the best gifts don’t come in boxes.
