December 8th, 2010 Great for friends coming over or cold days when you don’t want to go out now that Winter is here….Playdough and kids – yay!
The perfect recipe for a damp/ cold afternoon, or a great party item! Also great a a present in a sealed jar with a label on the front!
November 24th, 2010 I was recently given a set of Boggle Flash to try out. On seeing Boggle Flash I was quite intrigued by the concept that 5 little tiles could recognise words when they were put together. So we tried it in all type of scenarios, as explained in the instructions.

September 16th, 2010 Remember that your child does not need ‘tasty food’ as they have no idea what that is, so keep it plain and bland in the begining. It’s really all abou the textures more than the taste in the first 2 months.
August 10th, 2010 How does a kid take perfectly good shoes and get them to this stage in 4 short weeks?
July 6th, 2010 I intervied lots of graduates, and non-graduates. I think all kids are so ‘buoyed up’ by teachers and parents, that they have no idea of the realities of life.
