We have been pretty excited about the launch of the new Sylvanian Families Town range for a while now. On Friday we were finally able to see the whole range at our local toy shop. Both my children were so excited to see everything and Little Sis immediately bought the Sylvanian Families Town Chocolate Lounge set…
I’m just a little bit glad that last week is over. It started snowing on Monday, through Tuesday and Wednesday and Thursday, then it stopped. Of course school was closed on Friday which made no sense to me as the snow had stopped and we could get to school really easily. We used the unexpected…
Can you believe this time next week we’ll be celebrating Mother’s Day? Now that the snow has melted my thoughts have been turning to Mother’s Day. It’s a fun day to honour the women in our lives. I can’t resist making a handmade card with the kids and I have to admit that we made…

World Book Day is here again! Us parents either love it or loathe it. I was so jealous of other school as ours had a strict pyjama dress code only. Last year this was relaxed but there has been some hoo haa this year, loads of confusion and the mixed message of costumes or pyjamas….
