We are often asked to answer questions for other blogs and websites, but we've never actually answered them for our own. So why not?! We came up with ten fun questions featuring the number 10. And ...

PlayInChoc Advent Calendar with organic chocolates
I know we're already 4 days into December and I'm a bit late to share this, but the PlayInChoc Advent calendar is honestly just too cute not to share with you. Â We've now opened three little boxes and it's the highlight of our evening. Each box includes a yummy dairy-free organic chocolate along with a ...

Thoughtful and beautiful gift boxes from The London Gifting Studio
To give, but mostly to receive a gift that was chosen with care, with love, with attention to detail, with just that extra something, is so, so special. A gift that has meaning, a purpose, that is (and becomes) an experience and a memory -- those kind of gifts are the best ones. But which busy parent has the ...

Our Advent Activity Calendar
I loved Esther’s post last year about an Advent Activity Calendar! We have done a similar idea for a few years now (unfortunately not so beautifully designed!). I bought a Maileg Advent garland (a little bit like this one) and in every pocket the children find a sweet treat and an Advent activity for us ...

Sweet illustrations, by Laura Uy
Laura Uy is a Canadian illustrator with such a lovely, playful style. Her work mainly focusses on greeting cards and prints, which make great decor pieces for children's rooms. I love that bear in the photo above, so whimsical (the gold stars are hand-painted and make the print extra pretty). Laura's greeting cards have such sweet illustrations with the cutest puns. There are cards for ...

[…] Otra propuesta para decorar los huevos de Pascua, en este caso se trata de envolver los huevos (previamente hervidos) con papel de periódico, tan simple como esto.

Para darle el toque simpático engancharle un mini pom-pom para el hocico y ya tenéis un huevo convertido en un divertido conejito para Pascua. Lo hemos visto en Babyccino Kids […]
