Help, I’m Stuck At Home With the Kids: What Can I Do?

Mummy Confession: I’m not entirely panicking about being stuck at home with the kids. In fact, I rather enjoy the time spent together without too much of a schedule. Times happen in our lives when we may be a little isolated, or unable to get out and about as much as we would like.

In light of the current situation, I’ve included multiple resources which are available to parents as well Read More

The Royal Australian Mint: Country-Wide Scavenger Hunt!

Mummy Confession: I am guilty of being a tap-n-go mum! How many mums have limited their amount of physically taking out notes and coins in this modern age of convenience and the availability of “tap-n-go”? I can say that I am certainly guilty!

Playing Games With Your Young Child (Not Your Everyday “Bored” Games)

I’ve asked a fellow mum to write a bit about games that are great for young children, and it just so happens that this mum reviews games with her children and has a website and podcast dedicated to these reviews! I’ll let her do all of the talking, and hopefully she can suggest some great games for your children that not only provoke imagination and learning AND don’t push you to the brink of insanity or boredom!
