I can speak from experience from growing up having a birthday in December, so close to Christmas – firstly, a lot of the time your gifts get doubled up as Christmas and Birthday presents, secondly it’s tough cause schools on holiday (well, here in South Africa) and everyone is away and thirdly, December is just [...]

As mentioned in my previous post, this Christmas is the first that my Monkey is going to start getting excited and caught up in the Christmas vibe. Christmas is such a special time of the year, but so often we get caught up in the rush and craziness of holidays, going away, shopping and general [...]

Now that we’re officially in the Christmas month I’m starting to get excited and feel the Christmas spirit. This is the first year that our little monkey will  start to get excited about Christmas, and I already love how she points out Father Christmas when ever we see one.

It’s been raining here for what feels like months, so when we woke up this morning and the sun was shining I knew it was going to be a fun day! I have to admit that I’m a little nervous of hauling out the paints – it always seems to end up with more paint [...]

My little guy is 12 weeks old today. 12 WEEKS, seriously, where has the time gone. I actually don’t want to think about it too much because it makes me a little sad that my tiny newborn is getting big, sometimes I wish I could just freeze time and keep him this little forever. (And [...]

Super keen to give this idea a try and thought I’d share it with you. Check out the original post over at the ‘Small Fry Blog‘ for the original post and the ‘recipe’. Enjoy, I’m sure my little monkey is going to!

We’ve had such fun with these two activities, thought I’d share them in one post though as I’m not getting to my computer too much at the moment. Day 4 we did some rainbow salt drawing that I first saw over at Learning 4 Kids. Mom had fun sticking the coloured paper together and drawing in [...]
