Although the weather has been a little hit and miss, this week Bear enjoyed a Teletubbies tea party with his cousin. Lucky for him the sun was shining and they both got to enjoy the activities sent to them in the brand new Teletubbies Playdate pack.
His favourite Teletubby is Po (I’m starting to think this is because it’s the only name he can say!) so of course the party was dedicated to his new favourite teddy.
We all know how much I struggle at mealtimes with the boys. When kids just can’t seem to sit down at dinner you may feel as though the whole thing is impossible and that there is absolutely nothing that you can do about it.
If you want to make sure that your child is sitting down properly for dinner or if you want to make sure that they are appreciative of the food that you have put on the table then here are some foolproof strategies that will hopefully work.
There is one event in life that can spread across several months, and it’s pregnancy. From the moment a couple expresses the desire to have children to the birth – and even after the birth – you have several opportunities to show your support to them. Admittedly, your gift needs to be in relation to the specific step of the pregnancy journey – you wouldn’t buy baby clothes to a couple who’s only trying to get pregnant, for instance – if you want it to be impactful and thoughtful. But thankfully, this little guide can help you to find inspiration!
Planning a wedding is difficult enough at the best of times, but that doesn’t mean you can afford to cut corners when it comes to planning the entertainment for your wedding reception. For many people attending your wedding, this will be the most important part of the whole day. Once the formalities are over and done with, you can get down to the business of having fun.
When you’ve walked the path of motherhood for some time, it’s wonderful to learn that someone close to you is about to join you in that path of being a new mum. It may be a best friend, a sister, a cousin. Or a treasured work colleague or the spouse of a member of your family.
Although you know that the baby shower is inevitable, you want to give them a little something. Something that’s just for her. To remind her that although she is now a parent, she is still valued as an individual. Something to enjoy as she prepares herself in mind and body for the demanding but wonderful experience that will be the experience of motherhood.
But what?!?
If she’s yet to deliver her baby, obviously booze is out of the question. In fact, even if she’s had the baby, she’s unlikely to be boozing for the foreseeable future. And sure, everybody loves chocolate but you can do better than that! Here are some gift ideas to let a new mum in your life know that you’re thinking of her.
The next few years will be tough on her. Perhaps the greatest gift you could give is knowing that her friends are there to give a helping hand and support when she needs it. If you want to show you care but are a little strapped for cash, you may want to use one of these free voucher templates to print off some vouchers which will enable her to turn to you when she needs a babysitter. She’ll likely need the odd date night or simply a trip to the cinema that doesn’t involve crying babies and CGI cartoons. And thanks to you she’ll be able to enjoy some time to herself.
If you think hampers are just a dundee cake, some shortbread, a jar of pate and a bottle of red, you’ll be delighted to learn that hampers have gotten a whole lot classier in the last few years. Mosey on over to https://hamperlounge.com/ and you’ll see just how much more diverse they’ve become of late. Pamper her with a hamper that’s chock full of bath and body goodies, that will enable her to transform her daily bath into a luxurious spa experience. Or perhaps a hamper full of stylish and elegant gifts for the home? Or even a tea or coffee hamper? There are a huge range of hampers to allow her to relax and unwind after a long day or a sleepless night, or in those precious moments after the baby has been rocked gently to sleep.
Flowers for three monthsCome on now, who doesn’t love flowers? There’s nothing quite so lovely as coming to the door to find a delivery driver hand you a bouquet of gorgeous fresh cut flowers just for you. We tend to associate this with special occasions; special birthdays or anniversaries, but thanks to NotOnTheHighStreet.com you can now get flowers delivered to her door for three whole months with Bloom & Wild. What better way to make her feel special?
