Parenting Content // How To Help Your Child Sleep Better – Tips and Advice*
Credit Healthy sleep is crucial for a child’s mental and physical development. If you’re a parent however, you’ll probably know that no matter how often you try and tell this to excitable offspring, they’ll remain convinced that a proper bedtime is whenever they feel like. It also doesn’t help that although sleep is clearly crucial, no-one really knows why, meaning that the endless stream of “why” questions end up being answered with “just because” a bit sooner than normal! So how do you establish the right actions and routines to make sleep come easier? A mixture of practical advice and simple science has the answer! First off removing screens, including…

The Technology Generation*
I grew up on the brink of the technology generation. I was at school when ICT was introduced as compulsory, I was a teen when everyone started getting their first mobile phone. I remember the release of the first iPhone and what it looked like. Now I’m an adult I have an iPhone, a laptop, an iPad, a blu-ray player and a big tv.

Where in the World? – Faro, Portugal*
As I mentioned in my post on Wednesday, I’m already worrying about how I’ll feel when I come back from Florida.

As once again I am blessed to have the means to book another holiday off the bat, I’m already looking at my options. I see travelling as an investment of the mind and with that thought; I’m hoping to give Little Miss a worldly education. Saving like crazy and taking off during the school holidays when she gets older. Since I plan to have this blog a long time,…

Tonight I did my second case test pack. Normally I only do one but as this year I’m taking a case for the two of us (on the way out anyway) for the first time since I was a child and had to share with my sister, I’m taking no chances with it being overweight. On the way out i’m taking a pushchair so I only have the ability to deal with one case however I’m leaving the pushchair out there and using a hold all that is in the bottom of my case to bring back our shopping (which I’m hoping there will be a lot of!)
