Your Go-To Resource for Niche Topics
The Fun Times Guide is a network of 32 websites — each provides insightful, engaging, and informative content across a wide range of niche topics.
Founded in 2004 by Jim and Lynnette Walczak, our platform quickly evolved from a personal blog (that our friends and family diligently read) into a trusted resource for anyone seeking unique perspectives combined with practical advice from REAL PEOPLE.
Our tagline: “Real people. Real experiences. Real helpful.“
Today, we have literally thousands of brand new visitors every single day — and we couldn’t be more grateful!
We’re called The FUN Times Guide because we truly have a lot of fun sharing our life experiences with others. That was our thought process 20 years ago. And it’s still our mindset today. Even though some of the topics and subject matter we write about might not always be “fun” to think about… we try to make the most of it, with the goal of helping others in some small way.
Our Team’s Passion
What began as a fun way for the two of us to share our own adventures and discoveries has blossomed into a thriving community of information-seeking and information-sharing individuals who discuss nearly every topic under the sun!
Our team includes a diverse group of writers, educators, and other experts who share unique tips and ideas — based on their own personal experiences.
Whether you’re looking for tips on raising a dog (Lynnette’s lifelong passion), coin collecting (our Editor’s area of expertise), DIY projects (the expertise shared by our many writers), or motorcycling & travel planning (Jim’s personal obsession)… our websites provide a wealth of resources to help you successfully achieve your goals.
We believe that the power of sharing our own honest experiences, tips, and insights is to help our readers navigate life’s challenges and embrace new opportunities.
Our goal is not to change the world. It’s simply to help people do everyday things better (faster, easier, less expensively) — and to provide better answers to some of the hard questions.
From Personal Experiences to Trustworthy Advice
At The Fun Times Guide, we like to draw inspiration from our own personal journeys and in-depth research to provide helpful information others can benefit from.
We strive to remove the stumbling blocks and pain points, making it easier for our readers to try something new for the very first time.
By the way, we only recommend things that we genuinely like — AND USE OURSELVES. So if you see a specific product or brand mentioned here, you can trust that it has been thoroughly researched by our team.
We’re glad you’re here, and hope that you will continue to explore new interests with The Fun Times Guide!
Our network of websites is designed to spark your curiosity, inspire creativity, and provide practical solutions to everyday challenges. We hope that you find our sites trustworthy… and uniquely helpful.
Thank you for joining us on this exciting journey. We welcome you with open arms to our “fun” little community!
We’ve come a long way, baby.
The Fun Times Guide has been a trusted resource for more than 20 years now. And we’re proud of the many people we have helped (and that have helped us) along the way!
