Week five of our round the world adventure and we’re off to Ireland. We’re all having fun with these weekly themes, and I think making lemonade out of the lemons that (iso) life is handing us right now. I was super pleased when Missy Moo chose Ireland, and long time followers of this blog will…… Continue reading Our World Adventure – Ireland

As the days blurs into weeks, and the weeks blur into months we find ourselves finishing up our fourth country visit for our world adventure. We’ve now been to Australia, Greenland, Russia and Brazil; and really enjoying the process. With at least five more weeks of planned stage 4 lock down for Melbourne I don’t…… Continue reading Our World Adventure – Brazil

So Lego has been part of our lives since Christmas 2019, so a bit over six months. We now own half a dozen Lego friends sets, with more on the horizon I’m sure…. Missy Moo (5) just loves it. But, as is often the case, it was starting to get to be a bit much.…… Continue reading Our Lego Table – The Lack hack!

This week was week three of our World Adventures, and I have to say so far it’s going pretty well. Five days seems long enough to learn enough for a 5yo, and isn’t too overwhelming for me to come up with ideas. This week Missy Moo chose to visit Russia, once again because of the…… Continue reading Our World Adventure – Russia

Now into week 2 of our world wide tour, Missy Moo opted to visit Greenland. While this might seem an obscure choice, she chose it based on the polar bear marked on our map. But, I guess that’s the fun of letting her guide this “trip”… I simply don’t know where we’ll end up. I…… Continue reading Our World Adventure – Greenland

Did iso round 1 kick your butt? It sure did for me. I was lucky enough to be well supported by my husband working from home with no need to go anywhere or do anything, and yet it was so boring, repetitive and mentally draining. The kids were happy, but I just felt like it…… Continue reading Our World Adventure – Australia

Well what a wacky term two that was! We’re officially halfway through 2020 and up to school holidays again. Personally I found it quite tricky to write a holiday guide this time around; just everything seems such a mess and inclined to change at a moment’s notice. So, I asked you guys what you wanted,…… Continue reading Winter School Holidays 2020

Like everyone else we are stuck (safe!) at home. Each day I’m trying to do one fun thing with my girls; whether that’s baking, or a new activity or last week make amazing fairy gardens! We were sent two fairy gardens from Whimsy and Wild Creates and all three of us were so impressed and…… Continue reading Making Beautiful Fairy Gardens

https://www.remindables.com.au/ It’s back to school and back to kinder time; rushed mornings, lunchbox prep and general routine routine routine….or maybe that’s just me. In the morning I’d love Missy Moo to have a bit of independence in getting ready; both to help her take responsibility for herself, and also to (potentially) score me 5 more…… Continue reading Remindables for Back to School

https://www.facebook.com/FuntopiaCarrumDowns 586 Frankston Dandenong Road, Carrum Downs VIC A-Mazing! We got invited along to a special sneak peak at Funtopia Carrum Downs today and I must say, mind blown! What a fantastic new playcentre to hit Melbourne’s South. This playcentre is on steroids. So firstly our sneak peak session lasted 3 hours, and I think…… Continue reading Funtopia Carrum Downs
