I like a bath every now and again on my own (once a month is enough for a chill), but I often bath with the kids. When I was pregnant with Little Dimples baths were my refuge and way of keeping Curly Headed Boy occupied for hours without making the SPD hurt more or get even more tired. They are […]
Baths are not the same anymore!
7 Tips For Helping Your Child Enjoy School More
So Curly Headed Boy started in reception last September. I expected it to be a bit tricky, but by the end of the first term he was no happier and it was really affecting him at home. So I’ve been posting about the 7 steps (See the category ‘starting reception‘) that I took to try and resolve it, but I […]
Selfish Benefits To Extended BreastFeeding
Do you know what, I’m a big fan of things being a fair deal, giving and receiving, and not being just about a Mum who forgets herself. Ironically, that’s one of the reasons why I’m a fan of extended breastfeeding (that is after 6 weeks or 6 months, which is often considered more ‘normal’). (Please do not take offence if […]
Turning my noisy head off
Why do people have to disagree with us or have a go at us? Do you ever wonder? Wouldn’t it be easier or nicer if it was different? Or if everybody was nice all the time would it actually not work for us? I know that in this world there will always be as many people who like me as […]
New Day, New Outlook
So it’s a new day, I feel lots better for my rant yesterday, and it’s all sorted out, and rather nicely it’s all made up with the Mummy blogger who started my rant off ((it wasn’t all about her after all, it was just started off there), so I’m very chuffed as I really respect her blog and what she […]
A Dash Of Benefit Of The Doubt and a Mirror
I’m going to rant. If you saw my blog on monday you’ll know that there are a few things that make me want to rant, and this is one of them. Jumping to conclusions and not giving people the benefit of the doubt. I know we all do it. But the mummy world is particularly good at doing it when […]
Video Wed: Music To Scrub The Floor With and See Spring
Music is one of the biggest helpers in my life, especially when I’m knackered, and come down to a kitchen floor needing scrubbing as well as the normal feed 2 kids, get the packed lunch done, and get on the school run in time to not get stuck in traffic. So to all those Mums out there, here is a […]

Is Narration Taking Away Our Children’s Imagination?
Curly Headed Boy has discovered Bambi. After an initial avoidance due to him knowing that the Mummy dies, he sat down and watched it, and has done so again several times since, interspersed with Scooby Doo of course! It was such a blast from the past, I’d forgotten how different the old Disney films are. On the second watch I […]
Tummy Bugs, Time frames, Happy Sick Days and Flannels
Curly Headed Boy got hit by the dreaded tummy bug/virus on monday; I got the dreaded call ‘Mrs Pearson, could you collect your son from school please?” One part of me loves bugs. Once you are through the worst, you get to spend real chilled out time with your kids. BUT OMG day 2 is a nightmare! They are nearly […]
