Shh! We have a plan by Chris Haughton

We are real fans of Chris Haughton's books! To be honest it was a difficult choice to decide on which one to tell you about. Florence loves A Bit Lost so much and Helena loves to read our Dutch version of, Oh No George! But we finally decided on telling you about Shh! We have ...

BABY ESSENTIALS

A beautiful (and meaningful) baby blanket

I'm a big fan of muslin blankets -- they are so great for all kinds of purposes: swaddling little babies, drying them, keeping them warm (or keeping them shaded from the sun), as a breastfeeding cover, or as a play mat. My kids still use them as towels, throws, play blankets -- or we use them ...

Earlier this week, a successful beauty blogger in the Netherlands, Nikkie de Jager @nikkietutorials publicly announced that she is transgender. A very brave thing to do and was incredibly impressed by her story and the way she chose to share it. If you haven’t seen it yet, there is a lot to learn from Nikkie’s coming out video on youtube. It is an inspiring message from a strong roll model, addressing young people who feel insecure, misunderstood or simply not in the right place. It is about acceptance, respect, hearing and understanding each other, about writing your own story, about the power of being yourself — whoever you are and whatever you are. It is also about the importance of supportive parenting. Nikkie shares that she is intensely grateful for her mother, who always saw and heard, listened and understood, respected and supported her in her choices and in her transition. We have always tried to be straightforward in discussing sex and reproduction with our children, and open about the idea that heterosexuality is just one shade of a wider spectrum of diversity.

So many memories are made, and so many family photos taken, with a constant flow of images making their way onto phones. But how do you save them, share them, and treasure them? The clever @slcorlis shares her strategies for moving photos from digital to print, and preserving them forever. Hop over to our blog or click thru stories. #babyccinokids photobooks2020slcorlis

Bonjour Madame Badobedah. Welcome to our new book recommendation which is ... anigmatic and mysterious and hysterically fun. It’s absolutely everything a book should be made of. We adore Madame Badobedah and you will too! Link in bio. @mssophiedahl @walkerbooksuk @vanessa_wild_flours

A healthy Sesame-Crusted Salmon with delicious Asian flavours will certainly add interest to any grey day. And it’s a one-tray meal packed full of flavour but low on clean-up. So basically, perfection. A firm family favourite from @laraoflondon ... link in bio. #babyccinoeats #babyccinokids

Welcome back to 2020. We are sailing into the new year with some new fun posts. You’ll love this first easy craft of the year — making walnut boats. A great way to start a relaxed Saturday in pjs. ️ @laraoflondon #babyccinocrafts #babyccinokids

Merry Christmas everyone! Be it warm and wonderful, be it slow and sweet. We’ll be spending time with our family and friends, and we will see you again in 2020. (2020!! Can you believe it?) Love to all of you! Emilie, Courtney and Esther 🥰

If you’re looking for an idea to help children run off that pre-dinner energy, this is it... a winter scavenger hunt! The idea from our lovely Shannon @slcorlis is a pretty loose and flexible one: to walk around after dark and see how many winter and holiday things kids can spot either decorating homes and businesses or peeking through windows. Decorations are often left up until early January, so there’s still plenty of time to have a go at this before the end of the season. See her helpful how to on today’s blog. #babyccinokids #scavengerhunt #winteractivities

About a year ago, Courtney shared a selection of Wilkie’s favourite picture books, many of which are still on rotation as his favourite bedtime reads. But he’s beginning to enjoy the slightly longer stories now, and we have a few to add to that list. She snapped a photo of his current go-to books, most of them he can pretty much read to himself because we’ve read them at least 100 times!

An old article, but so interesting! This article explains that 'the family unit is built on the mother's oestrogen', 'the menopause is a very dangerous moment in a family's existence' and 'The moment when the 'mommy brain' starts to unplug'. And of course -- 'as with all change, we can all come through it stronger and more fulfilled, and as happy as we were before!' :) https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2011/jan/22/menopause-mother-family-oestrogen

Check out the cool vibes of our Shop Up event in London in December!

Our 2nd live shopping event in Brooklyn was amazing! Great shopping, delicious treats, tons of kids activities and a super cool family photo booth!

Esther shows us her recipe for delicious mint syrup.

Our live shopping event in London at Chelsea Old Town Hall in 2015 was a big success and so much fun.

Here we show you how to harvest rhubarb from the garden, and make it into a delicious compote. If you make oatmeal at the same time, you have made a delicious and nutritious breakfast that your family will love! (Ours do!)

This gym bag is such a fun and easy project, also for beginners this is a nice sewing project. Esther, Emilie and the kids had so much fun going to the market choosing all the supplies. The fabrics from Little Cube are the cutest!

Our first live shopping event in Brooklyn was a great success. We loved seeing the best boutiques under one roof, combined with great food and fun activities...and some dancing! Hope to see everyone this year again on September 18th & 19th at 501 Union, 501 Union Street in Brooklyn.
