It might still feel like summer, but don’t blink because in a snap you’ll be back to reality. We’ve got the savvy guide to September to make sure your transition goes smoothly.
DO
Buy a basket (or two, or three) of tomatoes
Why? Because they are in season, ripe and ready for the taking—they’re too good to leave behind. Take them home, make a big salad or pasta, and roast the rest. Your family will thank you in the winter months.
GO
On a bike ride with the third annual Tour de Greenbelt
Why? Because it’s a great opportunity to have some fun as a family while learning about Ontario’s Greenbelt and how important it is that this 1.8 million acres of green space has been protected for our health, the health of our kids, and that of future generations.

GET
Back on your ‘real world’ sleep schedules
Why? If you start before all regular programming resumes, it won’t be as difficult to get people mobilized in the morning when the time comes.
PLAY
Charades with your kids. Play in teams so the younger family members can participate and learn the rules and actions with some help.
Why? Because you don’t have to be away on vacation or at a cottage to play games. Turn the TV off and have some fun.
