Pushing other children

My little boy pushes other children a lot. He thinks it’s funny and a game, but of course, it isn’t the right thing for him to be doing. Today, we were in soft play, and other adult told him off in quite an aggressive way for pushing all of the other children. While I completely disagreed with the way she spoke to m...

All inclusive vacation recommendations

Hi! I’m wondering what is the best age to travel? I was thinking of going to Dominican when the baby will be 4-6month, would that be a good time? Also, can anyone recommend any family friendly all inclusive hotels in Dominican? I would also appreciate any tips when it comes to travel with an infant and picking hotel...

Backyard toys

I’m looking for some play time ideas for my 2 year old. I want to be able to play outside longer than 5 minutes. I have a bubble blower but she’s getting tired of it. Any fun toys that help you get outside?

Wake window activities

Hey mamas how are we keeping this fun and varied?? I’m doing the usual tummy time, contrast cards, story time (if it doesn’t end up in tears lol), swing time…but it’s all feeling so repetitive. Maybe that’s normal? The need to switch things up is probably more for me than him! Walks are starting to be more feasible,...

Kids play area outside

We got some land next to our house because we want to put a fence and redo the grass to have some space for kids to play outside as we basically don’t have any backyard. The grass here in US get sprayed with so many chemicals and I believe if one wants a decent grass and doesn’t want to pick out the weeds by hand th...

2.5 year old playing independently

My girl will not play on her own, I am getting so stressed. She wants me full attention all day everyday and as soon as I even make a phone call or do anything she’s so naughty. It’s draining me, I cannot do anything. It’s not even about play groups and socialising, it’s just when we are at home and I need to pu...

Getting on bus with baby

Hiya! This may sound stupid but my car is currently in the garage and I’m getting on a bus for the first time in a while with my baby. What do I do? Do I just put the break on and leave him in there (obviously I’ll be sitting next to him) or do I have to take him out and hold him? He’s 11 weeks so not sure what to d...

Passive vs Active learning

Hello ladies. I was wondering, aside from what children pick up passively through play, are we actively TEACHING anything? (Through play or otherwise) My LO doesnt have screen time and doesnt go nursery, so his only "education" is through me. I have not made an effort to sort of actively include and teach things l...

Good European holidays with kids?

We are in the UK and just had our first holiday away since having children (6 and 2). We only went as far as Dublin - it was exhausting! Also not very child friendly (couple of good museums but it was a bit painful waiting for things to open in the morning as children wake at dawn). Any recommendations really really...
