Everyone is in a frenzied state of mind these days because of the whole back-to-school phenomena.  There’s so much to do, so many things to prepare, and lists of things to purchase.  Are you ready?

Disclosure: I have been compensated to share this post. The opinions on this blog are my own.

Are you ready for the new school year?  As a mom with a few years under my belt, I can say that in spite of the long lists you can keep everything somewhat under control.  Just stay calm and stick to your list(s).

On August 22, 2018 SportChek welcomed a group of selected bloggers to attend their Move, Fuel & Grow with SportChek and Fitbit Event in Toronto.  I was thrilled to be among the chosen few.  Their event was in collaboration with:  Fitbit, Gaiam, Parkland, Hurley, and BioSteel Sports and was geared to moms & kids as they’re gearing up for back to school.  The two and a half hour event was held at the Berkeley Fieldhouse, in Toronto, which has the perfect outdoor space for yoga!

Quite frankly, we were spoiled while there.  We each were gifted with a Fitbit Versa (the children each received a Fitbit Ace), and our bands were customized with our name!  It was amazing to see several bloggers that I have met over the years and now consider friends!  Once we settled in, we were introduced to the various brands and ensured that we were all set up with our Fitbits so that we could head over to the outdoors and enjoy our mom & kid yoga session … on Gaiam yoga mats of course.  Our condensed yoga session was followed by a healthy lunch, while we learned how to make nutritious energy balls with BioSteel.  The kids decorated their Parkland backpacks (made from recycled bottles), and we had time to ask questions.  Great Brands, great people, and a great event!  I’ll confess:  Whew!!  It was a whirlwind of information!

Crushed for time with all your back-to-school shopping?  SportChek carries a wide range of  all the must-have Brands that you and your kids will love!

I’m super excited, and I’m looking forward to what may come; so keep coming back to the blog and find out!

Thanks SportChek!
