CVC Fun on the Way to School

Megan is in Kindergarten and loves books.  Every night we read two stories to her and she is starting to recognize words- which is very exciting. We have been focusing a lot on Sight Words and CVC words and it was getting to a point where she wanted to read on her own, but there […]

10 Summer Fun Activities for the Kids

I love summer…the beach, the sun , the kids! I have been sifting through Pinterest to try and find some activities for my children to do during the vacation.  I have a 2-year old and a 6-year old and wanted to find activities appropriate for both of them to do together. I have compiled this […]

Play Dough is Perfect to Practice Math Facts!

Today we mixed up a batch of play dough, well actually two!  (There’s nothing more relaxing than playing with play dough!) I used my No-Cook Recipe and it went super quick and lasts for a good few months if stored in an air-tight container – although we use it a lot and I like to […]

So Easy, No Cook Play Dough

I make a lot of play dough for my children.  I prefer the home made version because you can make it in your choice of color and a lot of it.  The little store bought tubs just don’t give me the quantity that I want (unless I buy a basket load at a hefty price). […]

Adam’s Worm Party

I have been absent from blogging for the past week so so because it was Adam’s birthday party and despite the many half started posts along the way to fill you in on what I was doing, I was not able to actually finish and post them.  So this is a condensed version containing the […]

Chocolate Cheesecake Yumminess

So it is just over a week before Adam’s birthday party and I decided to get myself organized and start baking. This morning, while Adam was sleeping and Megan at school, I decided to bake a cheesecake that would form part of the eats for the adults – although, I know Megan will probably be […]

Oh no!  Miss Monica from I Heart Grade 3 got us all involved in this Summer link Up and once she has our trust, she lays this topic on us: My Guilty Pleasure 😉 Lol, I was hoping it would stay a secret, just between me and my four walls (and every friend I’ve gone […]

Adam’s Worm Party Invitation

I can’t believe that Adam is two!  Where has the time gone?  As it is his birthday coming up, I needed to choose a party theme.  For me, this is a challenge, as I like to choose something that is out of the ordinary and then let my creative juices (what’s left of them) flow […]

Sorting, Ordering and Counting Nespresso Pods

My husband recently came home with a Nespresso machine.  I am not was not a huge coffee drinker and always opted for a cup of tea.  My view was always that the tea that I drink is far healthier as it is caffeine free and I don’t drink any sugar with it, unlike with coffee […]

Summer Link Up : A Random Act of Kindness

What a lovely topic this week:  A Random Act of Kindness.  This topic comes from a link up hosted by Monica from I Heart Grade 3 and has been going on throughout the summer. As I’m sure you are all aware, in South Africa we have a problem with poverty.  It is also winter here […]
