Pocket Money

I have just started to give my boys pocket money. They are ages 4 and 6. They get $3 a week, every Saturday. I am tying it in with chores such as making your beds, putting your toys away (still working on this one), putting your dirty clothes in basket etc. [...]

Swine Flu Vaccine side effects

A couple of days after Sam got a temperature and was really tired. I kept him topped up with paracetomol and got him an early night. Harry started to experience side effects about 4 days after the vaccination. His side effects were much the same as Sam’s really but it seemed to [...]

Guess Who Board Game

Have you got the Guess Who Board Game ? We played it the other day with the boys and we had some of those really great laughs that come with young children and board games. The teams were my husband and Sam against me and Harry – let the battle commence. I [...]

Kids Play Park – I wasn’t needed!

Bear Hunt Song

Sam absolutely loves this song. He gets so into it with all the actions, he loves it. Harry pretends he is not into it any more (it’s not cool enough for a 6 year old) but I can still see him watching Sam with a smile when he’s in full flow with the Bear Hunt [...]

Children’s Bike – Harry’s new Ben 10 bike has done the Trick!

Harry got a new children’s bike for his 6th birthday a couple of days ago – a Ben 10 one I hasten to add! He loves it. He knows how to ride bikes the only problem he has had is setting off himself (we have been giving him a starting push). Until [...]

Childrens Card Games
