Sometimes, for instance while riding a bus or train, my pre-schooler asks me for a story. I always get stuck on my own version of Snow White. Not because I lack imagination, but that’s just the first thing that comes to mind.
That’s why I love these Story Telling Cards by Eeboo so much. Just pick [...]
I’m always on the look-out for cute and funcional lunchtime items. And this handy fork with cute casing definitely comes to mind when making a wishlist of all things I’d like to put in my 4YO lunchbag! It would make eating her daily fruit salad even nicer AND keeps her bag a little cleaner afterwards.
It [...]
I must admit, I’m sort of a lazy mom. I’m can’t set myself to make cute bento lunchboxes, but I do want to make my 4 year old be happily surprised when she opens up her lunchbox.
That’s why I love these mini lunchbox notes: just make a peanutbutter sandwich, toss in a mini-cheese and a [...]
Love these vintage colouring plates! Found them on the amazing blog ‘Agence Eureka’. This blog is filled with a huge collection of vintage bookplates, colouring plates, illustrations, magazines, ads etc.
It’s in French, but the images speak for themselves. And there are so many of them, too!
A little tip: go here to Agence Eurekas Blog. Then [...]
Summer holidays: it’s great once you’ve reached your destination, but the roadtrip can sometimes be tricky…
We went to France, by car. It was a 8 hour drive, with two kids ( a 4 year old and a 1 year old). Thankfully, it wasn’t too hot. And we prepared very well: we had a great travel [...]
A little while ago I posted a craft project for DIY I Spy Bottles. I made two! For Lena I made a fairytale themed I Spy Bottle, containing a single shoe, a crown, Snow White, a pink heart, a golden coin, a real pearl and so on. I put them in a big bottle and [...]
…and yes, they actually work! Just balance them, by the head, on the top of your finger, and these butterflies will look like they’ll fly away any moment.
I love the fact that you can make them yourself with a piece of paper and two coins. It’s a perfect craft to do with your kids, and [...]
The day before yesterday I posted a blog on these supercute I Spy Bags. Like I told you before: I’m too late to buy one online, and I’m a no good crafty girl (can’t sew, can’t knit, can’t build a closet) so I thought up a little plan. I searched the web a little further [...]
I’m late.. again! We’re going on a holiday soon. To France. It will be a 12 hour car trip (well, 6, but I insist on a mini-break every 2 hours). And only now, the last weekend before we leave, I start thinking: ‘Maybe we should buy some car appropriate stuff to entertain the kids with…’
After [...]
We have a big garden. It’s not a picture perfect garden - it’s rather wild, with a lot of weeds, bugs, beetles, snails and grasshoppers. That’s why I love this toddler scavenger hunt so much!
Basically, your kid has to find all things depicted on the card. When he found one, he can put a sticker [...]
