Christmas Crafts With Baker Ross

We have been getting crafty with Baker Ross again and this time it has been a very christmassy themed box.

Here’s what we’ve been making. Snowman mosaic coasters These are great for children of all ages – even Lottie had ago at making one, it’s really good for developing their fine motor skills, along with shape and colour recognition. Penguin gift bag kits Really fun to…

Autumn crafts with Baker Ross

I am really starting to love our new routine now we are getting into the swing of it, Maisy is at school all day everyday and while I miss her a ton the quality time I get with her sister’s is really lovely. Two days a week I have Bella off from nursery all day so when Lottie goes for her nap me and Bella usually end up doing some crafts or baking, she loves anything messy. Baker Ross sent us out a great selection of autumnal craft activities recently so we took this afternoon as opportunity to give one a…

London bucket list

Up until about a year ago London scared me, in my head all I pictured was hoards of people bustling around pushing and shoving trying to cram into the next tube that came along. I steered well clear.

Yes it is busy at times but there is just an energy up there which is so different to…

Our Themed Week: Cars

As you may have read in last week’s Kid’s Corner post I am going to be joining in with What Katy Said’s themed weeks. I loved this idea as soon as I started reading her post’s it’s such a simple way to get yourself being a little more crafty with the children and give everyone’s imagination’s a kick-start! If your like me you’ll often find your self rummaging through the craft box with no clue what so ever as to what you can actually make so in the end you say “here stick this on some paper” – which they are…
