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…
Our homeschooling week 7 was mostly about celebrating VE Day. It is funny because we have never celebrated it before and I am not sure if it is because we are on lockdown and need something to celebrate or because it is the 75 year anniversary. Either way we have had lots of fun. We spent…
It is the time of year when the pretty Spring dresses make an appearance. However this isn’t just any usual year. There are no christening or wedding to attend, no birthday celebrations to attend, no fancy lunches with friends and certainly no date night on the horizon. When lockdown was announced I have to admit…
Homeschooling week 6. Another week of teaching, entertaining and making the most of our time together. The weather forecast was not as good as it has been, with a little bit of rain due which worried me. However it wasn’t too bad.

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…
Spin Master have sent my girls a couple of their products to keep my girls entertained. The Nail it and Kumi Kreator arrived lat week much to my girls delight. We have always been huge fans of Spin Master and have reviewed and purchased lots of their toys in the past. As a Mum of…
Starting school is one of the biggest milestones of a child’s life. I had no idea what to expect. I naively thought it would be easy. It wasn’t. It is a learning curve for the whole family. For those parents who have children starting school this September here are a few things I wish I…
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….
