Collaboration post It’s crucial for children to have a varied education in which they learn from different environments, not just a classroom. During the summer months in particular, it’s a good idea to get out and about and encourage your child to learn about the great outdoors. Here are some outdoor learning activites for your child…
Homeschooling week 12 – maybe? I haven’t wrote a homeschooling post in a few weeks. I am struggling with time. As usual my blogging takes a hit when this happens (which is so frustrating). Homeschooling is so time consuming and the longer it continues the harder it gets. After week 9 it was half term…
How to entertain a toddler whilst stuck indoors? The million dollar question. Entertaining a toddler when you’re stuck indoors has never come easy to me. We are very much an outdoors family whatever the weather. I knew once lockdown and the school closures were announced, my 3 year old was going to struggle the most….
Homeschooling week 8, the week we lost our way a little. Very little school work was done in week 8. Following the Prime Ministers speech on Sunday 10th I felt really low waking up on the Monday morning. I am missing my family so much. Generally I am quite positive and can put a smile…

We still managed to get outdoors quite a it which definitely helps break…
Homeschooling week 5, I actually had to check what week it was as I have completely lost count. As the weeks go on it is definitely harder to find different ways to make learning exciting and different. Homeschooling week 5 was a little easier because we had the hot sunshine. The weather has been…
Homeschooling week 4. It was still the Easter holidays for us however due to a very long week 3 without much planning. We all decided that we would have a schedule for this week. It works so much better for all of us. This week I have asked the girls to write a letter to…
Homeschooling week 3. It was without a doubt the toughest week so far. The novelty of the school closures has definitely gone. It was also supposed to be the first week of the Easter holidays so although we planned to still do a little bit of school work, we didn’t have a set time table….
Easy Red Pepper and Tomato Homemade Soup I love soup. Is not just a winter time option for me. I eat soup all year around. It is so healthy and full of goodness and I know my fussy children are getting some vegetables down them. Homemade easy Red pepper and tomato soup has to be my favourite….
