    Boys are from Mars, Girls are from Venus

    February 11, 2018

    There has been a lot of discussion I have seen recently in Facebook childcare groups around why we need to be mindful of the differences in how boys and girls learn. Boys are from Mars, Girls are from Venus. There is a known gap in educational achievement for boys and girls and there is a lot of work going into closing that gap. As a Mum of Three, two of which are boys this is a subject that has always fascinated me not only professionally but also personally. When watching my children at play and at work the differences to me can be seen, however in a classroom with so…

    school holiday ideas :)

    January 2, 2018

    My children broke up this holiday only days before Christmas, this meant that we have a long time between the whole Christmas New Year buzz and school going back. This can feel like a bit of a drag after the hype of Christmas, without mentioning the expense involved meaning the last thing you want to do now is go and spend even more on days out. Here are my top ten activities to keep the little ones entertained in the break between new year and new term. 1: Playdough - so easy and so versatile. If you haven't already tried my snow playdough from my previous blog, take a look,…

    Free Family Christmas Ideas

    December 19, 2017

    Christmas can be such an expensive time of year. When really it should be about making memories, it seems to be more about the 'stuff' every year and the pressure and expense around this. Plus for children the hype starts so early that it is no wonder children can get a bit Christmassed out! I know mine are so ready for a break and some family time. That's what Christmas is really about family time and making memories so here are five activities I enjoy with my family that are cheap or free to create some lovely family time and memories over the Christmas period. 1: A festive movie -…

    The Stress and Magic of Babies First Christmas.

    November 17, 2017

    It is your babies first Christmas, the excitement is at fever pitch. Family and friends cannot wait to spend it with your bundle of joy, and everyone wants to know what to buy.   Arrgh…..what do you buy a baby? They have everything! Plus they often don’t really care if they get presents or not as they are more than happy with the boxes and wrapping paper.   Therefore what happens when you say “oh anything” or “they don’t need anything”, you get a house full of plastic noise making gifts! So beware.   That said babies first Christmas is an amazing magical time, you will get the best photos…

    Why do I take a holistic approach to parenting?

    November 14, 2017

    That's easy, I have many professional qualifications that enable me to practise traditional parent coaching methods however I have three children all of which have had their personal struggles and I wanted to take a new approach. I wanted to look at new ways of working especially when it came to some more complex sleep and neurological issues I was faced with in my personal life. I know life as a parent isn't always as easy as it looks, and most of the issues we face are not that easy to see, however they are very real and bring very real problems.   I found that taking a more natural…

    But Why Wouldn’t Children Play Outdoors?

    October 12, 2017

    But why wouldn't children play Outdoors? This was asked to me in a workshop recently. The answer, there are so many reasons for the decline outdoor play. The reasons range from the weather, not wanting to get wet or dirty, to work and lifestyle commitments and choice, use of iPads and computers increasing, more clubs and activities that children attend, a declining freedom and desire for outdoor play in our current society, the list just goes on. That's why I believe being outdoors, engaging in risky play and experiencing choice and freedom is so important within a childcare setting. A recent study stated that many children and are spending less…

    Natural Remedies, Yes or No?

    August 8, 2017

    How many of you have considered using a natural therapy or natural medication? I have been surprised by the number of people I have spoken with recently who have or who would love to find out more about natural alternatives, this got me thinking. A while ago I did some training in using homeopathy and herbalism, which has always been of interest to me. However in my house we have a divide, I would much rather take an alternative route, where as my husband is polar opposite. Our children have somehow managed to be somewhere in the middle and have their own opinions depending on what they are trying to…
