When I started weaning with Florence I found it incredibly difficult to get her to eat anything at all. She just wasn’t interested and her take on food hasn’t really changed much. She doesn’t seem to need or want much of it at all, doesn’t appear to eat much for pleasure and is eager to get the whole process out-of-the-way so that she can get on with whatever else she’s busy with. I tried to feed her everything from purees […]
I don’t know if I’ve never properly grown up but I totally delight in my children’s toys and games and thoroughly throw myself into their play with them. I was a major toy fanatic when I was little and when it came to pretend play I was a master! My friend Angela and I would spend hours devising story lines and then act them out, we both still talk about it now and it formed such a massive part of […]
As I mentioned in another post recently, once the festivities of Christmas have been done, winter doesn’t really hold much clout for me so I’m thoroughly looking forward to brighter mornings and lighter evenings, getting up while it’s still dark is just too moody! With Christmas gone I absolutely need some things to look forward to and I always think January is the best month to start planning treats for the family for the rest of the year. You know, […]
We’re back from our Christmas break and I’m feeling rather flat with my emotion. I don’t know, you spend all this time looking forward to it, preparing, buying, building excitement and then it’s all over. Like with holidays, weddings and for me, anything which is exciting, it gives me a bit of a come down afterwards! We had an absolutely lovely time though and every one of my expectations was fulfilled. It was filled with the kind of brilliance and […]
Askamum love my blog, ooo-errr how exciting! Christmas is nearly here and we are all excited in my house. Excited for the time spent with family, the presents, the food… Everything really. We’re not at all religious if I’m honest. I mean I put Christian down on forms but none of us go to church and I’m not entirely sure what, if anything, we believe in. Some might say we are hypocritical to celebrate when we don’t do it solely for […]
Christmas is nearly here and it’s time for the Rocknrollerbaby nativity! Just for a bit of fun we have made our very own little scene using none other than Le Donk. Well, he is a Donkey so he had to be the ‘little donkey’ in our recreation of the scene! Cast: Le Donk – Little Donkey Ruth/Mummy – Mary Jonny/Daddy – Joseph Jimmy – Baby Jesus Florence – King 1 (her choice) Bollo Cat – Sheep (errant from picture as […]
I talk about HappyLand from The Early Learning Centre on my blog all the time because I absolutely love it! It encourages ‘small world play’ which is a vital part of children’s development and the toys are all such super quality and built fantastically well! As far as I’m concerned you can’t have too many HappyLand characters and houses and with the range being as extensive as it is there is something to interest every personality! Whether you like whimsical mice in a tea-pot, […]
Ever heard of Bizziebaby? I’m sure if you’re a Mum and you look for reviews before you buy anything then you absolutely will have done but if you haven’t yet been introduced may I do the honours now? Way before I started blogging and reviewing products for my blog I liked the idea of being a road tester for baby products and a friend of mine introduced me to this company, Bizziebaby, who for a five-pound yearly membership would send me products to review […]
Florence is a massive fan of dressing up and has a collection of outfits which she plays with loads. They’re fab toys because they don’t take up much room when folded and in the toy box and provide hours of entertainment requiring them to use their imagination! I’m not overly keen on cheapy ones which fall apart, it seems like a false economy to me; instead I prefer to use ones from The Early Learning Centre because they’re still not […]
