My children just adore crafting and we have a huge box of Hama beads that never seem to go down. They are a really easy toy to play with and I love that I can bring the box out every so often and let the kids create with the hama beads. They are such a…
I have a delicious recipe to share with you today. I don’t know about you but I love watching films at this time of year. With half term next week we have a few films to watch, so we needed something special to enjoy whilst watching it. We all love popcorn but it’s even better…
My children have been (almost) climbing the walls with excitement for most of October. They just adore Halloween and have been dressing up, pleading with me to get the Halloween decorations out of the loft, and helping me bake spooky treats all month.

We put up some of our Halloween decorations yesterday but this year I just can’t help making Halloween themed food. Over the years we’ve made a lot of Halloween crafts but now the children are older it’s fun to spend more time in the kitchen. My 5 year old was off sick one day so…
I love Fridays. We have a fun weekend planned with the kids. Can you believe we’ve already reached letter V in our weekly A-Z Play at Home blog hop? The letter V made me think of vegetables, something we always have plenty of at home. We’ve used vegetables in our crafting before and today we wanted…
