New Product Alert! After searching for something like this for my kids, and not finding anything - I decided to just go ahead and make one myself, so excited to share it with you!
This is the perfect product to take along with you on car journeys, on planes, on trains, on boats even! Compact and sturdy enough to use on their laps, or those small trays. Also handy to take out for meals, to waiting rooms - they are mess free (no glue, glitter or sticky stuff) and come with all the bits you need.
And just like that the Summer holidays are here! A nice break from the relentless task of homeschooling and the weekday routine. But this year there are also lots of canceled holidays leaving many people feeling a bit deflated (me included). As with everything in life we need to be adaptable and choose to make the best out of situations we find ourselves in. So with that in mind I thought I would get some fun ideas in a blog, my top picks that I plan to do this holiday. There really are so many wonderful ideas online - we are all spoiled for choice.
I still feel like I need to pinch myself that this all actually happened! What an incredibly fun experience it was. As many of you may already know, My Busy Bots was recently on a show called ‘The Customer is always right’ – the ultimate consumer test! The show features British entrepreneurs, who all send their products to a panel of customers who then un-box and test them and then deliver their honest, amusing (sometimes brutal!) reviews. Pretty nerve wrecking being under the test on National TV!!
That’s right, it’s coming! That one, blissful day of the year when you lounge in bed until mid-morning, interrupted only by a gentle tapping at the door so your loving family can tiptoe in to bring you an artfully arranged breakfast tray.
So, your baby’s off to school in September! There’s lots you can do to help them feel ready for the change – find some of our top tips on our blog post here. But what about you? If we’re honest, we both underestimated what an adjustment starting school would be, for us as well as for our little ones – and Leanne’s a teacher! So we thought it would be helpful to share some of the things that make the transition easier for us.
So, your baby’s off to school in September! It hardly seems possible… where has the time gone? (Though, when we look back, the old adage that the years are short but the days can be loooooong certainly rings true.) There may be nerves. There may be high emotions. There may be blind panic. Some of these may even be coming from your kid. Here are a few things you can do over the summer to ease them – and you – into this brave new world.
Ah, the Summer holidays. As a child, they seemed to go on forever. As a mum – especially a working mum – they seem to go on much, much, much longer than that. Here are a few of our tips for getting through it without completely losing your marbles.
Yep, it’s nothing to do with how you look in bikini (though by the way, you’re gorgeous – trust us.) As the kids count down to the holidays starting, are you feeling full of delight at the thought of the long summer stretching ahead, filled with stimulating and bonding new experiences and the day-in, day-out company of your little treasures?
