2025 Blog Announcement

Get ready for an exciting 2025 because big things are coming to spiffykerms! With my middle boy officially signed up for TK this fall, a whole new chapter is beginning, and I can’t wait to bring you all along for the journey. As a mom of three, my days are undeniably busy, and sure perhaps a little chaotic as it will continue to be, but with two of my boys in school, I’m eager to refocus on writing, exploring, and sharing all the things and updating this blog more.

In 2025, I’ll be tootin’ around in my little car with my littlest boy and going on new adventures. Visiting both new and familiar places, seeking out the best coffee shops (because you know I run on caffeine!), and taking my littlest to Bay Area kid-friendly spots and I’m excited to share those moments with you.

So, bookmark www.spiffykerms.com and get ready for a year of updates, adventures, outfit posts. From juggling mom life to finding time for myself, I’m determined to embrace the balance—and I hope you’ll join me.

Discover Tunnel Tops Playground: San Francisco’s Must-Visit Family Spot with Epic Views

If you haven’t been to the Tunnel Tops playground in San Francisco yet, stop what you’re doing, pack up the kids, and go. This place is pure magic—a perfect blend of breathtaking views, imaginative play spaces, and that unmistakable is a Bay Area vibe that makes you feel alive. I’m telling you, this spot has it all, and has become one of my favourite places to take the boys when we’re in the city.

The views— wow. Perched above the Presidio, Tunnel Tops offers jaw-dropping panoramas of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, and the sparkling waters of the Bay. It’s the kind of view that makes you pause and just soak it all in. Whether you’re a local or visiting from out of town, it’s a postcard-perfect backdrop that never gets old.

The space is filled with natural elements like logs, climbing structures, and slides that blend seamlessly into the landscape. My boys were in heaven, running from one activity to the next, climbing, balancing, and letting their imaginations run wild. There’s something for kids of all ages here, which makes it a win for families with little ones and big kids alike.

And can we talk about the vibes? This place just feels good. It’s got that relaxed, community-centered energy where everyone’s just enjoying the moment. Families picnicking on the grass, kids playing, couples taking in the views—it’s the kind of place that reminds you how special San Francisco really is.

There are wide, accessible pathways, plenty of seating, and open areas that make it easy to relax and enjoy the day. And did I mention it’s free? This kind of experience at no cost feels like such a gift. There are bathrooms available on-site (lifesaver!), and the playground operates from 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM, giving you plenty of time to enjoy the day. Plus, it’s dog-friendly, so your sweet little pupper dog friends are welcome to join the fun.

Whether you’re looking for an incredible playground, a gorgeous spot for a picnic, or just a place to unwind with your family, Tunnel Tops is it. It’s the kind of place you’ll want to come back to again and again.

See you at Tunnel Tops!
