Everything we get up to – activities, learning and play
I remember being bought a personalised book when I was a child and loved reading how I and my friend helped Snow White and the 7 Dwarves save the day. I always thought it was magical being in a book…
We’re back with Project 365, and it’s been a bit of a rubbish week photo wise. I’m behind with both of my photography courses I’m doing, and I’ve not had my camera out much to practice. But I have managed…
Following on from my post about Dads and family photographs, I’ve been thinking about swimming as well. In our swimming lessons, there’s quite often more Dads than Mums in the water, mainly because it’s a Saturday, and it seems to…
I’ve never been keen on having my photo taken, being a shy child, and until having N just not liking it especially when I’m not at my fit healthy self. The inbetween stage of 6th form and uni (pre-digital cameras…
I’m a bit of a slack crafter. I love doing crafts (cards, jewellery, crochet) but actually getting something out and thinking of it from scratch isn’t my forte. As for children’s crafts? Well, let’s just say that Weekend Boxes come…

I thought I’d have lots of photos for this week 5 of Project 365, but workdays have been hard. The weather hasn’t been good enough to spend time looking around and taking photos, and work’s been manic so I’ve had…
I can’t remember how long ago it was that my Grandma taught me to knit and my mum taught me to crochet. The former must have been 30 odd years ago, and the latter probably 25 years. And apart from…
Obviously, living on a farm means that N is obsessed with farms. He watches Tractor Ted, knows more than me about different farming vehicles and what they do (admittedly not hard), and is gradually building up his collection of farming…
Last year we did the 300 picture books challenge and managed to complete it in May or June, reading 300 different picture books. I can’t say the same for my own personal challenge, it was a seriously poor showing and…
We’re into week 4 of Project 365 and almost the other side of January. My pictures are largely themed around food thanks to starting my diet and healthy eating this week, and it being N’s 4th birthday. Sunday we visited…
