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 />
