I was reading a post at Ready for Ten on things a ten year old should be able to do and it got me to thinking about what a four year old should be able to do, or rather what it’s helpful for them to be able to do, as I’m comfortable with kids progressing at their own pace.
My daughter’s four and about to start school so I’m very aware of the need for me to help her fill in any skill gaps to make that progression a …

I’m inspired! Guest Post Day was amazing again and I think it’s time to celebrate this phenomenon that is blogging.
Introducing The Great British Blog Festival, like a carnival, but not a carnival. A festival of blogging!
How it will work…
I’m inviting bloggers to submit their posts on blogging to me. Each day one will be published on a host blog. My two blogs will both be host blogs and if we need more host blogs then we’ll deal with that if it happens.
The festival will run from …

I can’t believe Nokia are suggesting I record my child’s voice so that I may receive directions from the little darling when she’s not present. Well let me tell you Nokia, I hear enough of her little voice thank-you-very-much and the last thing I need is her demanding shrieks when she’s not around, kay?
So let me see, who’s voice would I like to give me directions….hmmmm….
Richard Attenborough I could definitely listen to his directions, nobody would ever speed again!
Definitely not David Beckham with his little boy voice, …

I love tax credits, who doesn’t love free money! The renewal pack is always a bit off putting but it’s worth it when you get your payment every four weeks. I’ve just completed mine, I always try and underestimate our earnings after getting caught out a few years back, I didn’t have to pay back in a lump sum but it seriously decimated my payments the following year.

Five Things I’m Going To Spend Our …

Erin had a sleepover at the weekend, her first ever sleepover with a friend.
It came as a bit of a shock really, she doesn’t seem old enough for sleepovers.
As I dropped off ‘Lucy’ and her pyjamas I wondered if she was ready for a sleepover, I wondered if I was ready.
Part of me thought we’d get a late night phone call to come and collect her, a bigger part new that we wouldn’t.
When I went to pick her up the next morning she didn’t run into my arms relieved to …

I’ve been invited to join in with The MAD’s carnival, which is a selection of posts from the finalists of The MAD awards.
We were asked to submit a post demonstrating what we’ve been nominated for, which proved a bit difficult for me as I’ve been nominated in the ‘Most Innovative’ category. I was going to write a post about how great the e-course is and how much I love it, but then I would say that! So instead I asked e-course subscribers to submit their thoughts, …

What is Guest Post Day?
Guest Post Day is a day when instead of posting on your own blog you post on someonelse’s and they post on yours. The partnerships are drawn at random meaning that many bloggers meet new bloggers and we can all enjoy being part of one big community.
Why?
Well as I said you get to meet new bloggers but also you get the chance to put your content in front of some fresh eyes and maybe even find yourself some new subscribers.
When?
The Guest Post Day …
