2025 Galison Puzzle - Christmas Street

🧩500 pieces - Christmas Street by Galison Puzzles

Our holiday puzzle is now complete and was a blast to do together - Dizzy our lovable snow monkey wanted to sneak into the pic here, before getting washed after a lot of travelling gigs with Magical Santa this year! :) 

Thoughts on the puzzle:

👉There were no missing pieces which was a relief. After doing many puzzles, I think we've had maybe 1 or 2 where the puzzle was missing a single piece. 

👉This was a good quality puzzle to enjoy. The art was lovely with vibrant colours. No puzzle dust at all either. 

👉In a world full of plastic that is hard to escape from entirely, I also really appreciate that the pieces came in a paper envelope. They also use a soy-based ink for the puzzle pieces.

This one was definitely a challenging because so many of the patterns looked similar with the housing and lights.

Bill knows my love of NYC and so this was very thoughtful.  It will be in rotation to do over again with our National Lampoon puzzle for future holiday seasons.

2025 Jingle Jangle Christmas Show at Shadowbox Theatre!

Hi everyone! 

We are doing our Jingle Jangle Christmas Show once again. 

The Windsor Youth Centre is really in need of assistance and so we're hoping to raise a lot of money for them and fill their shelves with canned goods. Below is more about the show - which is for all ages. Hope to see you there!

 JINGLE JANGLE CHRISTMAS SHOW

A fabulous event raising money and collecting canned goods for the Windsor Youth Centre

The show features holiday musical favourites from Jon Brett, a visit from Dizzy the Snowmonkey and a very special magic and juggling show from the jolly old elf himself, SANTA!!!

After the show, Santa will twist balloons for everyone as well.

So come join us and create a memorable night out with the family while supporting a good cause.

COST: $5/person at the door (and don't forget those canned goods!)

DATE/TIME: Tuesday December 23rd, at 7pm

LOCATION: Shadowbox Theatre 1501 Howard Ave (Howard and Shepherd), Windsor, ON, Canada

*UPDATE*

Kids were wildly excited and all the families smiling ear to ear. We raised funds for The Windsor Youth Centre and dropped off a bunch of canned goods as well to fill their cupboards. 

Thanks to everyone for coming out! A special thanks to the amazing Jon Brett Music and The Shadowbox Theatre.

My Acrylic Art Work

I've been dabbling into acrlyics on canvas and have even sold some pieces! It makes me happy that I can create and contribute to our community. I wanted to share what I've done lately.  *A portion of the proceeds from the sale of each piece will go to a local charity here in Windsor-Essex County or to someone in need.
