Hooray for HappyLand – Celebrating 40 years of ELC

by

To celebrate its 40th year, I was asked by ELC to put together either a storyboard or video using figures from their Happyland range. Now anyone who has been to the ELC, would know that this range is lovely – sturdy, bright and attractive to children incorporating a wide range of people, vehicles and situations. I knew I could not help but get involved and would have to create a storyboard to showcase our story. The children got involved and I have to say, we had loads of fun!       The illustrations have been done by Jadyn. The …

My top fashion tip – Accessorize!

by

I am no fashion designer or model but I have to say that I have been blessed with a sense of style. In fact, in my college days I was considered one of the best dressed girls. 😉 It was not because I had a cupboard full of gorgeous clothes but because I when I put my entire ensemble together, it looked good. Nowadays I would still love to have the time to be able to get every outfit just right but I find myself having little or no time to do so. Most times I put something on with …

Our entry in the Kids Capture the Colour Competition #KIDSCTC

by

Jadyn has always had an aesthetic eye and a keen eye for colour. She has been worrying for her own camera to take pictures for ages. I love taking photos and ever since I began blogging I have begun to try out new ways of taking photographs, editing them and capturing stunning scenery. All three children, on seeing me with the camera constantly, have taken a keen interest in photography. In fact when something is in for review, Aeryn, 2, takes my phone and tries her hand at clicking. Of course, none of those photos have been used so far …

Pocket Money Traditions in My Family

by

I remember getting pocket money – it was not a lot but I think it went a much longer way than the equivalent goes now! We were not given weekly pocket money but monthly – on pay day (so we would all get paid, so to speak) We would also get bonuses before holidays which were always welcome. I also remember a tradition which, when I was very young, I didn’t particularly care for but as I grew older I thought it was the nicest thing to spend pocket money on. As we were growing up, it was a tradition …

My Entry – #HomeImprovementHero Challenge with MoneySuperMarket

by

It doesn’t take a lot to make a house, a home. It needs family and love. But to add that special something to a home, it is necessary to have a house that is comfortable and welcoming. Here also, I have learnt with this challenge that it does not need a lot to get a house looking like you want it to. When I was approached by MoneySuperMarket to take part in the Home Improvement Hero Challenge, I instantly took up on it. With the rise in prices, it is not easy to get by on a budget. Most often, …
