As a school teacher and a parent I am more than aware that schools need funding. What they receive from the government just doesn’t cut it. Not with changing technology, consumables, and the numbers of attendees always on the rise. We are so very lucky to live in an area where we have active PTA groups who work tirelessly to raise funds for the fun and educational events that are provided for our children.

This post is for the PTA parents who are looking for ways to raise funds. KidStuff coupon books are an effective fund raisers that are ONLY for schools. No other groups can sell them. Additionally, 50% of the sale of each book goes DIRECTLY to the school. That’s $12.50 a book! No other fundraiser can boast that kind of return.

This means that if each child in a class sells just one, a class of 20 students earns $250 for their school, it adds up so quickly.

The other perk is that its a fundraiser that’s actually USEFUL. I keep two of these books on hand every year. One is in my car for when I stop somewhere and could use a coupon, and the other is in my desk where I do a lot of my shopping planning etc. I almost NEVER make a purchase without checking the book first. In fact, I have friends who sometimes come to my room to go through the book before they plan a trip or run to the store. This is especially helpful around the upcoming holiday season.

What kind of coupons can be found in the books?

Clothing Stores
Eateries
Theme parks

Last June Megan took little (E) to go see Annie at Westchester Broadway Theater and had a BLAST! Not only did we give a great review, but we were able to snag a FABULOUS discount for our readers. Well, we are back with another great review, and a discount code for you and your family too!!! Read all about it- we are DYING to get back there (seriously (A) asks me EVERY DAY).

Annie Get Your Gun

At The Westchester Broadway Theatre

Music & lyrics by: Irving Berlin

Book by Herbert & Dorothy Fields

Directed & Choreographed by Richard Stafford

Musical Direction by Shane Parus

September 14 – November 18

Getting there & Parking: Leaving from Nanuet, it took my family about 25 minutes to get to the theatre. It was a straight jump onto the NY State Thruway, to the Saw Mill and a few turns and we were there. Parking was so easy as well, since the theatre has its own parking lot. Super convenient, especially with 2 anxious girls that were so excited about dinner and a show, there were no “are we there yet”.

Dinner: WOW – the choices where amazing. We were able to choose from seafood, chicken, pork, prime rib and even a vegetarian option. If you have picky little eaters, they have a kids menu available as well. When you sit, you are served a side salad to start, with a little corn muffin and roll. Your waitress/waiter then comes by to see if you want drinks or any other types of appetizers (these are at an extra cost). We stayed with the menu they gave us. I chose the Chicken Saltimbocca, with a baked potato and veggies. The meal was cooked to perfection, with no complaints from me. Both my girls chose the Chicken Piccata, and said it was “super yummy mommy, can you make this one night” (1 chose to have 2 baked potatoes, and the other a baked potato and rice pilaf). My husbands choice was the Prime Rib. I was super worried that when he asked for it medium, since many places have a hard time making a prime rib to perfection, but once again the chef did not disappoint. It was perfectly pink and my husband even mentioned that it was probably one of the best pieces of meat he has had (going out to diner). Dessert was just as delicious. They have an extra menu that you can purchase from, but we were happy with what the chef prepared. Vanilla ice-cream over a ½ a peach, raspberry syrup, whip cream and a cookie. When we stepped out at half time to stretch our legs, we saw some of the other desserts (and sadly regret not trying one of the other options as a bonus dessert). We also had some coffee and tea.

The Show: The show was great. Annie Get Your Gun is a play about crack shot Annie Oakley. Annie (Devon Perry) is a quick witted, sharpshooter that wills her very first shooting competition against “the best shooter around” Frank Butler (Adam Kemmerer). While they travel throughout the US, Annie and Frank form a bond and start to fall for each other. But as stubborn as Frank and Annie are, they end up going in different directions. Annie with Wild Bill and his show, and Frank with Pawnee Bill’s show. Finally after months apart, they are back in the same City (New York City) when Sitting Bull, helps Annie realize how to win the man of her dreams heart back – by letting him win the competition.

The show was great for men and woman alike, as well as kids. It touches on friendly competition between a man and a woman, some action with the shooting competitions, and some romance. The voices of Annie & Frank were amazing. The notes that they hit and the range was simply impressive. The ensemble was just as amazing as the main characters with the dancing and singing and kept my girls entertained for sure.

Show Times:
Wednesday & Thursday & some Friday Matinees: Lunch: 11:30 am & Show 1 pm.
Thursday, Friday, & Saturday Evenings: Dinner: 6:30 pm & Show: 8 pm.

Dig in the fun!- Review

Posted on September 25, 2017 by RocklandNYMom Posted in Day Trips, Day Trips, Out and about..., Reviews, RNYM Savings!, Uncategorized .

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post. All opinions expressed are my own.

Two years ago, we hit up Diggerland USA for the first time. Since the day we left, RNYD has been referring to it as “the best day ever”. It was a day of good “dirty” fun with the kids. With a theme park that is large enough for big fun, but small enough to REALLY enjoy in one day, its just perfect for a day trip, ANNNND its getting to be our favorite time of year to go…. Shorter lines, less traffic, and cooler weather makes Diggerland the PERFECT day trip for fall.

We finally had a chance to get back this year with the kids, which is awesome, because the last time we went (E) was only 30″ tall and couldn’t participate in many of the activities available. This year coming in at exactly 42″ she was able to do everything and was rearing to go.

When we first arrived we needed to hit the bathrooms after the drive, and they are located conveniently right near the gate, I have to say I was very pleased by the cleanliness of them. This is a really big deal with little kids as you know, because they are really new to the process and touch EVERYTHING.

The next 4 and a half hours consisted of us walking around the park experiencing EVERY single attraction- some more than once. The kids (and grownups) really really loved it. That something that’s really cool about Diggerland USA. Its not just for kids. As grownups we enjoy it as much as they do, I mean, who hasn’t wanted to use a backhoe? The parents wait on line just as eagerly as the children do, and when I mention it to people, the grownups always say that they would love to go as well.

The kids adored “Spindizzy” and wanted to go on multiple times. Once they had driven everything available (multiple times) we headed over to the jungle gym. This was great, the kids got to run around some more and we grownups had a chance to sit down and relax a bit.

Even in peak summer trip season (the last two weeks before school starts back up) the lines were never too long. Our wait never exceeded 8 minutes. We really had the best time.

Diggerland is also a GREAT place to take scouts, have a party or spend the weekend… Next door is its “sister” park Sahara Sams which is a water adventure park. There is too much to do at both parks in one day, so its a fabulous get away- hit one park, stay over, and hit the other the next day <3 Annnnnnnd, we have a discount for our readers.

Little Drummer Boy

Posted on September 18, 2017 by RocklandNYMom Posted in Classes, Opportunities, Reviews, RNYM Savings! .

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post, all opinions expressed are my own.

My son just started drum lessons. He had such a blast while at The New City School of Music with Andrew (READ HERE), that he asked and asked to go back, and here we are!!! I love this because not only is (A) getting into something that he loves, but I can also show all of you sneak peeks into what being a student at The New City School of Music is like. I will periodically update you on his progress with Andrew and the fabulous staff here.

Today for his first (real) lesson I must say that again I am impressed at how organized they are. There was a sign welcoming (A) to his first lesson, paperwork all set, and his very own binder for his music papers. There was also a little questionnaire for him to complete about why he is here. He LOVED all that individualized attention.

(A) remembered much of what he had already learned, and Andrew jumped right in with the same beat that they had been working on when (A) had come to the trial lesson. I adore the way Andrew explains things to (A). He is patient and makes sure that he understands before moving on. This is soooo important for a child of (A)’s age who is so impressionable, and inquisitive. Andrew was able to correct many of the minor body movements that (A) needed to be more “economical” with his movements. Then they got into a new beat.

When (A) started getting a little mixed up between his hands- he even found a fun and engaging way to help him practice at home. He got his first homework assignment and is SOOOO looking forward to showing Andrew next week what he can do.

Now the weekend after his first lesson- (A) has successfully practiced for 10 minutes every night and can’t wait to show Andrew what he can do on Monday <3 I can’t wait either.

Don’t forget that for the rest of the month we have a special deal for those who would like to register for lessons–

Passion for Percussion

Posted on August 30, 2017 by RocklandNYMom Posted in Classes, Reviews, RNYM Savings!, RNYM's Picks .

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post. All opinions expressed are my own.

We are a music family. I have said it before and I will say it again. We love music. We listen to it during dinner, we jump at opportunities to experience it live. Heck RNYD and I were even in a classic rock band together when we were younger. The kids love music too, but just now little (A) is really starting to appreciate it. He’s asking RNYD to teach him how to play songs on his bass and he really has a knack for rhythm (not shocking since dad is a bass player).

(A) watches the show “School of Rock” and has expressed interest in seeing the show on Broadway. He has even said that he wants to start a band. This paired with his great sense of rhythm got us thinking, would he enjoy drum lessons? We thought we should give it a try, and knew just where to go- New City School of Music. It’s right down the street from us and we have been there before. We scheduled a lesson with Andrew, and this is how it went.

Andrew came out to meet us in the lobby and you could tell immediately how personable he is. He introduced himself and brought us back to the lesson room. He asked a few questions to see how much (A) knew about drums and music theory. (A) has some basic knowledge thanks to a great music teacher at his elementary school, and some quality time with RNYD.

Andrew first went to his drum book to try some rhythms with (A), who was having some trouble following. This didn’t phase Andrew at all, he pulled out a sheet that he created himself and broke it down to (A)’s level. This worked MUCH better. Andrew explained that sometimes the book is difficult to follow because there is a lot going on on each page, so he developed a sheet to make it easier for his students. He said that one of his favorite parts of working with New City School of Music is the freedom that he and his colleagues have to choose the curriculum that best suits their individual students. They aren’t forced to use a cookie cutter program for EVERY student who walks in the door no matter their level or style. This is good teaching, and as an educator it made me super glad to hear.

Several times during the lesson Andres had to switch things up for (A). He had some difficulty with remembering the 1 and 3 vs 2 and 4, so Andrew helped him to remember and get it (I can’t explain how cause its his method). He also went to the white board to show (A) some of what he was talking about and to touch on the “REAL” music theory parts of rhythm.

As Andrew broke things down for (A) he explained that he has a “growth” mindset, be believes in setting attainable goals for his students who all learn at their own rate. He believes that positive reinforcement and fun are the key to helping his students develop a passion for playing, and that over time it is that passion that drives them to practice and progress. He mentioned that he has had students as young as 4, and students who are developmentally delayed, and they have all made strides. Andrew accepts and loves the challenges that come with each one of his unique students.

Andrew teaches theory and technique throughout the lesson, but he doesn’t force it. When we spoke after class he addressed it by saying, “at this age, its important, but it can be worked on as they grow. I am more interested in fostering creativity, a passion for playing.” He explained that it was most important that they love it because then they will practice it. Kids who enjoy what they are doing, want to do it more often. I am super pleased to say that he did in fact foster this passion during our lesson. (A) has been to many lessons, this is the first time that he seriously inquired about returning. RNYD and I are trying to work out the details, but are excited for (A) to continue to foster his love for music.

New City School of Music even has a Special offer for RNYM readers:

We know you’ll like it here!- Annie-WBT Review

Posted on July 12, 2017 by RocklandNYMom Posted in Day Trips, Day Trips, Events, Food, Out and about..., Reviews, RNYM Savings!, RNYM's Picks, Things to Do!, Uncategorized .

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post as we were invited to see Annie. All opinions expressed are my own.

WHY ISN’T DINNER THEATER MORE OF A THING?! That’s all I have been asking myself since we attended Annie at Westchester Broadway Theater last Thursday night. Our family of four is OBSESSED! So much so that RNYD has already picked out our second show that he wants to attend this August, and I had to take a picture of the upcoming shows because I can’t wait to go see more!!!

We took little (E) for her 4th Birthday last week, and “oh my goodness!” As a family we adore theater, we love Broadway, but sometimes with the expense of it, with young kids is such a gamble that we avoid it. When we do go its includes dinner the whole shebang. Will the kids sit through it, especially after the car/train ride? Will we find decent parking? Where can we eat that everyone will be happy? Will there be a crazy wait at the restaurant?

Westchester Broadway Theater handles ALL of that! For a reasonably priced ticket you get, a short drive, close parking, a delicious meal (including desert and salad), AND a spectacular performance. I feel like I could go on FOREVER, but I know you want me to get down to the nitty gritty- here goes…

Ten Reasons Dinner Theater Rocked and needs to be a thing:

Short easy drive from Rockland, Westchester, Northern Jersey
It literally took us 20 minutes to get there, no crazy traffic, just a straight shot to Elmsford.
Free parking right there.
Yep, a nice large parking lot where you walk straight into the theater.
Pretzel Encrusted Chicken

Seriously, the menu was awesome, but this sounded so neat I had to try it, so glad I did!! (A) had the Broiled Filet of Sole, and (E) had the chicken fingers)
CLEAN bathrooms
Important for me, but so much more for my 4 year old daughter, we must have gone 5 times, so this was a breath of fresh air.
Small personal theater

Cool for adults, and so much more for kids. No distractions, an intimate performance where you can see it all.
Comfortable seating

RNYD has had 5 back surgeries, this is important, as is leg space. Unlike many Broadway theaters WBT has comfy chairs, and room to breathe. Little (E) could even stand without bothering other theatergoers.
The talent on stage

You don’t even know you aren’t ON Broadway. The bios of the actors speaks for itself, but even without reading, you know from the first number, these guys are fabulous.
People still dress
I don’t know about you, but it irritates me that people wear denim to Broadway. When I first started going people wore their Christmas and Easter outfits. At WBT people were dressed for the occasion, it adds to the element.
Affordable for a family
Dinner and entertainment for a family of four (never mind the kind of caliber food and entertainment) is EXPENSIVE. WBT has made it possible to give your family the experience in an affordable way (especially if you mention RocklandNYMom.com for your discount).
The staff

My little princess wore her birthday tiara, EVERY staff member we encountered commented on its loveliness and then treated her like a queen when they learned why she was wearing it.

All in all it was really, truly the most fantastic birthday experience for (E) and for the whole family. (A) asked if we could go back for his birthday next year, and RNYD has picked out a concert event on 8/12 that he wants to attend. I have already spied a few upcoming shows I will be purchasing gift (and personal) tickets for. This is an experience not to miss. A great intro to the stage for kids, and a memorable experience for the whole family.

Recommendations:

Time: (A) is 7 and (E) is 4. We went to an evening show- both made it through because the show was AWESOME, they couldn’t keep their eyes off of the stage, the is ABSOLUTELY suitable for younger kids as some of the Hollywood scare is not in the play, but I recommend the daytime showings for most children. We didn’t get home until 11:30 and knew we had nothing planned for the following day.
Money: Who doesn’t love saving? Mention RocklandNYMom.com to receive a discount!!!
Dining: They don’t have cups with lids- if you have a kiddo you are worried may spill, bring your own to fill.

Presents
ANNIE
Music by Charles Strouse
Lyrics by Martin Charnin

Musical Direction by William Stanley

June 29 – September 10, 2017

Inspired by Little Orphan Annie, the 1924 comic strip by Harold Gray, Annie is a heart-warming story, filled with adventure and laughs that defines what family truly means. One of the longest running shows in Broadway history and the winner of seven Tony Awards, Annie, returns to the WBT stage from June 29 to September 10, 2017!

Annie, one of the world’s best-loved musicals, is set in 1933 in New York City during the Great Depression. Little Orphan Annie is determined to find the parents who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of a New York City Orphanage that is run by the cruel, embittered Miss Hannigan. With the help of the other girls in the Orphanage, she escapes to the wondrous world of NYC where she finds a new home and family in billionaire, Oliver Warbucks, his secretary, Grace Farrell, and a lovable mutt named Sandy. Notable musical numbers include “It’s the Hard Knock Life,” “Easy Street,” “I Don’t Need Anything But You,” and “Tomorrow.”

Peyton Fishman (Irvington) and Kaylin Hedges (Valley Cottage) star as Annie in alternating performances. Michael DeVries is Daddy Warbucks, the billionaire business man. You may remember him in Wicked and Hello, Dolly, on Broadway. Susann Fletcher is Miss Hannigan, the cold-hearted orphanage owner. She starred as Louise Seger in WBT’s production of Always…Patsy Cline. Warbucks’ secretary and love-interest, Grace, is portrayed by Celeste Hudson who was seen in Show Boat at WBT. Miss Hannigan’s con-artist brother, Rooster, is played by Adam Roberts, who appeared on Broadway in Pippin and Spider-Man Turn Off the Dark. The role of Lily, Rooster’s petty-thieving girlfriend, is played by Aubrey Sinn who starred as Maria in our production of The Sound of Music. John-Charles Kelly plays President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

A lively group of local girls play the orphans in Annie. Anika Bobra (Armonk), Tahlia Ellie (Short Hills, NJ), Haylie Christiano and Ruby Griffin (both of Valley Cottage), Maureen Henshaw (Carmel), Nora Kennedy (Tappan), Molly Lyons (Wappinger’s Falls), Sasha Murray (Chappaqua), Lucy Neureuther (Harrison), Ella Stanley (Bronx), Lauren Sun (Rye Brook) and Gabriella Uhl (Cornwall

Featuring: Robert Abdoo, Kelly Black, Laura Cable, Joseph Cullinane, Jesse Lynn Harte, Carl Hulden, Ryan Alexander Jacobs, Kelsey Self, Rochelle Smith, Roger Preston Smith, and Billy Clark Taylor.

Sunny, a 7 year old Terrier Mix, will play Sandy the dog. He was rescued from a kill shelter and appeared in the 2014 revival of ANNIE on Broadway, and in the national tour. He was the subject of a NBC special entitled ANNIE’S SEARCH FOR SANDY. Sunny follows in the line of great Sandy dogs rescued and trained by Bill Berloni.

Directed & Choreographed by Mary Jane Houdina; Musical Director is William Stanley; Assistant Director/Choreographer is Robert Abdoo. Rochelle Smith is the Dog Handler.

Steve Loftus is the Technical Director.

DIGGERLAND: Buckets of Fun for Everyone!

Posted on May 23, 2017 by Ashley Carmichael Posted in Contests, RNYM Savings!, Uncategorized .

2 years ago when we first visited Diggerland USA ( Read our full review here!), A had the time of his life, but E was a little too young/short (Most rides require a height of 36″ to operate) to fully enjoy it. We are SO EXCITED to be invited back to Diggerland this year, I can’t wait to watch E get the full experience this time!

Diggerland USA is the only construction themed adventure park in North America where children and families can drive, ride and operate ACTUAL machinery. The park, which covers about 14 acres in West Berlin, NJ (20 minutes from Philadelphia), is comprised of over 25 attractions. The majority of which are real, diesel powered, full size, pieces of construction equipment. Each machine has undergone advanced engineering modifications which make them safe for the public, allowing children as small as 36″ to operate with little to no instruction.

Guests who visit Diggerland can drive full size backhoes, dig giant holes with real excavators, and operate just about every sort of construction machine you might imagine – from the skid-steers to the recently unveiled ARGOs, made famous by their amphibious qualities.

Along with operating heavy machinery Diggerland guests can climb one of the world’s tallest ropes courses, take an off road adventure in our military trucks, tackle the rock wall, spend time in the video arcade or enjoy one of the daily heavy machinery stunt shows performed by our operating team.

My husband may be the most excited for the newly opened attraction: DiggerlandXL, for adults! Operate unrestricted, full size construction equipment at Diggerland with 1 on 1 instruction from our heavy machinery foremen.

Before you start planning your trip – We have 4 TICKETS to give away!
