Sunday- Vagoni Agapis Kids Festival

I literally had to dust off my camera when I picked it up this Sunday. We were heading to a kids festival organised by Vagoni Agapis, a non-profit charity organisation for families in need. Such a great cause teamed with really good food and lovely weather (I hope some of you made it), making it a fantastic photo opportunity. Georgie and the other children dabbled in a number of activities including gardening and yoga. It was his first time striking the animal poses and he absolutely loved it. But his favourite part of the day had to be the sea of dead leaves he rolled around in to his heart’s content. Does this mean we can finally welcome autumn?

Georgie’s lunchbox

Packing Georgie’s lunch box is, apparently, a thrilling task. I have so much fun with it (most times) and try to include exciting yet healthy options. Apart from the school’s ‘no nut policy’, which means peanut butter is out of the question (boohoo) I think the possibilities are endless. I set time aside in the evening to get as much as I can ready for the morning and always keep in mind that I am feeding a three-year old, so small portions and bite-sized pieces are key. I photographed some of the lunches and snacks I put together during Georgie’s first and second week. Let’s see how long this lasts! (ha!)

A tear-free drop-off at school

Kids and school were (almost) the only two topics my girlfriends and I discussed last night over dinner. The beginning of the school year is a hot issue talked about by mothers all over the world especially by the ones who are new to the circle. When it comes to under 6s tears are unavoidable no matter what you do but there are ways to work around the sudden change, slowly and steadily. These tips have helped make our mornings easier.
