Georgie in London


Over the Easter holidays, we took our first family trip abroad. We flew to London for a few days and then made our way up North where my brother lives and spent a lovely albeit freezing day in Liverpool. London on the other hand was in full spring swing and nothing is more gorgeous than London in spring. Traveling for the first time with Georgie was an interesting and unforgettable experience that makes me want more! However I have a feeling Georgie will be disappointed if we don’t make it back to London soon; ask him where he lives and he’ll say ‘London!’ READ MORE

Five ways to manage your child’s behavior

Last week, one of Georgie’s teachers almost made me cry. It was during a parent-teacher meeting, the second this year. Let me just say that Georgie is in preschool so these types of meetings are short and sweet, addressing basic issues; weaknesses such as not writing in a straight line and confusing numbers 6 and 9 and strengths such as good communication and independence.

You shop, kids play @ Boyz & Girlz boutique

Oh how I enjoy shopping for Georgie! And honestly, it doesn’t matter where; it could be at a second hand shop or a gorgeous little boutique. As long as clothes/shoes are practical, sturdy and have a perfect fit, I’m sold. Do you remember my post on Boyz & Girlz, a shop that stocks quality pieces at affordable prices for kids aged 0 to 14? If you haven’t been yet, now is your chance . Tomorrow, Friday April 3rd at 15:00, Boyz & Girlz will be celebrating its first birthday with a 20% discount on your Easter shopping as well as new arrivals too. There will also be other offers in store and most importantly,  kiddie entertainment! Cristina, who is part of the Wonder Dough team will be there to keep the kids occupied with tons of arts and crafts while you and I chat over wine and of course, shopping! See you there! READ MORE

The Parent Hood// 12

1. Schools in Finland will test teaching by topics instead of individual subjects. This is interesting.

2. These are the four supplements EVERY woman should be taking. Makes sense.

3. Any Game of Thrones fans reading this? Apparently, Season 5 will premiere on April 12. Excited? I am! Here’s an interesting article on finding fact within the fantasy of George RR Martin’s books. DO NOT read unless you are up-to-date. There are major spoilers as part of this article.

Little Kickers Cyprus

Months ago, before Georgie turned four, I noticed him kicking a ball around outside. He was playing on his own, muttering to himself, kicking the ball to the wall, sometimes asking Tano, our dog, if he wants to play too. Moments later he came indoors, went to the toilet and emerged with slightly wet hair and pulled-up sleeves. READ MORE
