Make A Crown! – Free Printable Crown Template

April 24, 2012

There are a lot of different crowns in our house, but according to Morgan, none of them are ‘Kingly enough’. Our original printable tiara template was not right. Apparently a King’s crown needs a spot for a really big jewel at the top, and it’s more pointy. Armed with these instructions I set to work [...]

Imaginative Play – Why it’s Great for Parents!

April 10, 2012

In case you haven’t noticed, I really like imaginative play. Lucky for me, so do my kids! Kids learn so much from imaginative play. It is an holistic type of play, covering all areas of develop and allowing the child to focus on and learn whatever he or she is most interested in or ready [...]

Easy Art for Kids – Roll-on Painting.

March 20, 2012

“Can I paint Mum?” I almost said an automatic ‘no’ when he asked, but something made me stop and think first. It was already 2pm, and Noey was running around getting in to everything, and I had a blog post to write, and it was ballet night, and… So many reasons to say not now, [...]

Easy Art For Kids – Dropper Painting

February 21, 2012

We’ve done dropper painting before, a long time ago when the girls were little. Back then we used droppers saved from medicine bottles, but these days all our medication seems to come with a spoon not a dropper, so I splurged a few dollars on a set of plastic pipettes when we were at Riot [...]

Easy Art for Kids – Easy to find, Easy to Glue, Collage Materials

December 6, 2011

“I want to sick something! Mum can I glue something? You know, stick stuff? You know, like with glue?” It makes me smile the way he talks. From a 2 year old who didn’t even say ‘Mama’ to a four year old who who talks like a geeky teenager. How can I say no to [...]

free printable christmas letter writing set

My girls don’t like Santa. They never have, and I’m beginning to think they never will. These days, at a very grown up eight years of age, they can keep themselves together when they walk past a giant blow up Santa in a shop, but no amount of lollies can bribe them to get any [...]
