Here’s where you’ll find posts for what the kids did… playing, wearing, doing, and more!
During our term with Waterbabies we did a few activities that involved the use of toys. Using these toys and props helps to make things more exciting for the little students, and for the parents or carers who accompany them in the lessons! Many of the items used in the classes are available in… Read More
Fisher Price Smart Stages is a clever range of toys designed to last for longer than average and suit different developmental stages, helping your child to learn colours, numbers, shapes and more. As you’d expect from Fisher Price the range is well made, able to withstand even the most boisterous toddler attack and will last… Read More
Athena only ever asks to watch three programs on TV. One of them is Bing, and it’s the least objectionable of the choices! I like it because each little episode has a nice moral to the story, and it deals with every issues that a toddler comes across; Sharing, potty training, losing things and… Read More
There are two items to showcase for this week’s ‘What the Toddler Wore’ and they’re both from Little Sunflowers an online children’s clothing website. First up is a lovely Super Twirly Lily & Sid dress. Now I don’t normally choose pink things for Athena but this isn’t too OTT pink and she loved it when we were… Read More
Arlo loves to look at himself and I mean really loves it! A few weeks ago we were in a restaurant that had mirrored dividers behind the booths and he spent most of the meal looking over my shoulder and grinning at himself like a complete loon, much to the amusement of us and the family… Read More
I love wooden toys, they last forever, they look nicer and bit’s don’t break off them when they’re flung about the place by an angry/happy toddler! We have four new additions to our wooden collection, they’re ‘Anamalz‘ from Wooden Toy Shack, a new brainchild from Brighton dads Sean, Alex & Rob. Not only is the website… Read More
Arlo has reached that ‘oh look i’ve managed to grab something in my tiny hand by accident, better stick it in my mouth pronto’ stage so although it doesn’t mean a tooth will appear any time soon it probably means he can start to make use of teethers soon! I think Athena got her first… Read More
I think our car attracts rubbish. Well actually I just have a husband who flings things into the footwells and leaves diet coke bottle lids all over the place. Last week Athena found a random one on a pavement and picked it up and shouted ‘Daddy!!!’ waving it around. So not only is the car… Read More
I’m starting to put Arlo in ‘proper’ clothes a lot more, rather than just fancier sleep suits. Saying that though the weather is so hot that at the moment he’s often in a short romper or just a vest! This outfit is from a week or so age before the heatwave arrived. A grey wrap… Read More
Watermelons seem to be very ‘in’ at the moment, and as well as this playsuit Athena has a dress and shorts with watermelons on that will probably feature soon! However today it’s a more muted watermelon style, with a lilac playsuit with tiny watermelon slices! I love the ruffles at the neckline and the elasticated… Read More
