When i started in children’s parties over 10 years ago I think it would be fair to say I was not a fan of pass the parcel. So I changed the way we played it to ensure the we didnt have any tears and now I love watching children play this game. This is […]
The classic baby in a box game. I must say Neive wasn’t as keen to go inside the box as i thought she would be. We haven’t done lots of play with tunnels yet though so i think she was a bit unsure. I cut some holes in the top of the box and […]
I have been filling up a show box with random things from around the house for Neive for a few months now and today i remembered to get some photos of her exploring them. I had a few bits from the kitchen, tube of smarties as she loves a shake and grabbed things out of […]
This play idea I got after Neive pulled all the tissues out of the tissue box. How do babies know the things that make the most mess are the most fun! I took the now empty tissue box and re filled it with bits of tissue paper. It was so easily i just ripped bits […]
I got this idea because Neive loves to shake marks Pepsi bottle around. I part filled one of the Pepsi bottles with water and a drop of food colour and one larger one with water, beads and star stickers. She had fun sliding them along the floor and shaking them but she wasn’t to […]
Neive loves a sticker and she thinks it hilarious when I put stickers on her nose or head. I got some felt sheet from my art supply box along with some big flower foam stickers and we had a play last week. She spent quite a long time on this activity and liked to […]
When Neive was around 3 months old i wanted to make her a sensory toy to play with. We had been going to Baby Sensory class for a few weeks so i had a few ideas of what type of thing she would like to grab and look at. After a little time on […]
A friend of my mums told her about these DVD’s and recommend them. I got Neive her first one when she was about 3 months old and she wasn’t really fussed although she did watch the T.V on and off when it was on. It wasn’t until Neive was around 4 and a half months […]

When Neive really started to play with her toys I thought I better start washing then. I wasnt too sure what to use and how often i should do this so i spent some time on Google and asking friends. I thought it might be helpful to share what i did. We have a […]
We got back last night from a short Family holiday on the Isle of Wight to celebrate my parents 40th wedding anniversary. With two dogs, four adults and one baby it took quite a bit of searching to find the right place. I had to write about this place as the owners really put […]
I got this top play tip from my NCT friend Kim and it has been one of Neive’s favorite baby play things since she was around 5 months old. An Emergency blanket! They cost about £1.50 so a total bargain for hours of baby play fun. I got mine from Amazon in packs of […]
