Around Toronto

We call the vibrant city of Toronto home and know there’s no shortage of fun things to do with kids around Toronto. Whether you’re looking for Kid Friendly Toronto Restaurants or ideas for Toronto Date Nights, we have plenty of suggestions. From popular Toronto attractions to off the beaten path experiences around Toronto, we love Exploring Places in the city with kids in tow (and without).

If you’re looking to spend a weekend in Toronto as a family, it can be overwhelming to figure out the best Toronto hotel with a pool and the best spots to enjoy some craft beer with a baby. Luckily for you, we have all the answers you may be looking for. So don’t be shy, feel free to explore our suggestions. Whether you’re looking for Dining or Theatre options, there’s something for everyone visiting Toronto!

Born in Sri Lanka raised in Dubai, Bahrain, Pakistan, U.S, Australia and England, I now find myself settled in Toronto. Passions include wine, dining out, cooking, cocktailing, travelling, hunting for random fun events in the city and now… exploring all things family related. With two kids under the age of 12 we continue to explore everything that fascinates us! Our goal is to encourage young families to maintain the pre baby life, post kids. Having dined out and traveled to over 200 cities in over 20 countries since the first baby was born in 2011, we encourage you to travel and enjoy the culinary offerings in your own city!

When Yashy launched Baby and Life (now known at Parenting to Go) while on Mat Leave in 2011, I never envisioned being able to maintain such an audacious, at times hectic, life outside of our Downtown Toronto haven. As Yashy and I have continued to explore new activities and culinary experiences inside and outside of Toronto, I knew I needed to begin telling our stories from the Dad’s perspective. Our hope is that you will find this site to be both informative and inspirational, and if you have kids, or plan to, and are concerned that life as you know it ends at parenthood, we are here to tell you why that simply isn’t true.
