Winter is here and the school holidays are upon us once again. I have to admit, I actually quite like the school holidays (even though Sebastian isn't at school yet) because it’s a break from our usual activities. It’s a time for cruisier mornings and slower days. We tend to take each day as it comes; however, that being said, I like to have a bit of a plan up my sleeve of activities we can do. In particular, inside activities and those which can hold the attention of an active nearly three year … [Read more...]
My Thoughts On The Gro-Clock Sleep Trainer
A few months ago I purchased a Gro-Clock Sleep Trainer for Sebastian. Whilst we had been lucky for a long time with Sebastian sleeping and staying in his bed, one day he decided to wake and start the day early (like 5am early).

Whilst I can remember life without her in it, I … [Read more...]
5 Delicious & Nutritious Toddler (Approved) Lunch Ideas
I am really lucky in the fact that Sebastian loves food and is a really good eater. However, recently I had lost all sorts of inspiration when it came to making lunches. I had fallen into the routine of making the same thing everyday. I’ve spent a bit of time this last week thinking how I can revamp our lunches. I say “our” because at the end of the day I like to eat lunch with Sebastian, and the easier that is to achieve the more likely it happens. I also wanted to come up with lunches that … [Read more...]
Keep Warm & Snuggly This Winter With Babu
No matter where in the world you are, when Winter rolls around it is time to bunker down indoors. It is also the time of year for snuggly blankets to make an appearance, gosh I do love a snuggly blanket. In particular, something soft and made from natural fibers; something that can be cuddled and snuggled and because of this - something which is easily washable. That's where Babu comes in - they have gorgeous bedding all made from "the natural fibres of organic cotton and merino, chosen … [Read more...]
