A Culinary<br />
Adventure<br />
Before catching Disney’s Raya<br />
and the Last Dragon, families<br />
can take a culinary adventure to<br />
Raya’s homeland Kumandra—a<br />
magical land inspired by Southeast<br />
Asia—with kids leading the<br />
recipe creation.<br />
Disney has collaborated with<br />
Raddish Kids to help families<br />
create their own “Dinner & a<br />
Movie” night with a free printable<br />
digital Raddish cooking kit<br />
created in celebration of the<br />
film that includes three recipes:<br />
Shrimp Noodles, Pork Lettuce<br />
Cups and Mango Sticky Rice,<br />
inspired by the cuisine of Southeast<br />
Asia.<br />
Kids can take charge in the<br />
kitchen—with help from their<br />
grandparents—with the easyto-follow<br />
recipe guides, and a<br />
step-by-step cook-along video<br />
with an appearance from a Disney<br />
chef. The free, flavour-filled<br />
kit created in celebration of Disney’s<br />
Raya and the Last Dragon<br />
can be found at raddishkids.<br />

New Field<br />
Guide<br />
Saanich Parks released a new<br />
field guide to inspire a passion<br />
for nature discoveries in parks<br />
close to home. This illustrated<br />
field guide highlights some of<br />
the plants and animals found<br />
in Saanich parks and the different<br />
types of ecosystems where<br />
they live. It is a visual learning<br />
tool aimed at youth, but the<br />
intent is to encourage learning<br />
and enjoyment for all park visitors.<br />
Illustrated by local artist<br />
Kristi Bridgman, the field guide<br />
captures the spirit and beauty<br />
of the unique nature that exists<br />
around us. Saanich Parks will<br />
develop resources for families<br />
and educators to use with the<br />
field guide so they can broaden<br />
their learning while experiencing<br />
these lovely places. The field<br />
guide is available at saanich.ca.<br />
What the F*ck<br />
Is My Password?<br />
How often have you uttered a<br />
variation of those words? What<br />
the flip is my password? Here’s<br />
a simple no frills journal to keep<br />
track of important information<br />
for online accounts and websites.<br />
Keep track of your sh*t<br />
at last. Forgotten your internet<br />
password again? This logbook<br />
has enough space to store<br />
the website name, username,<br />
password, and notes for 1,000 of<br />
your internet passwords.<br />
And here’s a bonus: according<br />
to Amazon “The print is quite<br />
large so is suitable for seniors<br />
and people with bad eye sight.”<br />
