One of the most frustrating things for me as a parent is the relationship that our girls have with food. They love fruit. M will eat blueberries like sweets and they eat bananas, oranges and grapes in abundance. Every Sunday we have a cooked chicken dinner with lots of veg and the girls always eat…

Hobbycraft Fourth Birthday Cake Project
Read moreOur twin girls turned four years old last weekend and I knew that I wanted to make them an extra special cake. The thing is our girls have such different tastes that one cake with one design just wouldn’t cut it. R loves Spiderman and M loves Peppa Pig, so I turned to Pinterest for…

Tiny Bike Balance Bike Review from Fun4Kids
Read moreI’ve been debating for a little while now about whether to get our girls a balance bike each or a trike. I took to Twitter to ask some other Mums and Dads for their opinions and experiences and the majority suggested a balance bike. Our girls already have a Scuttlebug each, which is a three…
