There’s nothing quite like solo parenting a head strong three year old for a week to really put things in perspective. I cannot put into words just how much respect I have for single parents. Our trip was exhausting, but a lot of fun and it was really great to see family. They were amazing… Continue reading Our Trip to Scotland
Back Soon!
We’re so there!
Well this weekend has not gotten off to the best of starts with her classes. Yesterday we turned up for Cheerleading where L point blank refused to go join the class and had a meltdown of epic proportions. We left. We’re not sure what happened or why she didn’t want to go, given she talks… Continue reading Peg Boards and other Work.

This is probably not a subject expected to be seen in your standard Montessori Set Up/Curriculum for a freshly turned 3 yr old. It’s not. There are various ways 3yr old can practice letter formation at 3 if the child is ready; one of which is the use of Sandpaper Letters, the other is using… Continue reading Pencil Control?
This has been an exciting week preparing for L’s first independent class where mummy and daddy were not allowed to stay. I am not going to lie, I was nervous that she wouldn’t take to it as I have some hard memories where we tried nursery a year ago and she wouldn’t let me leave.… Continue reading All Star Cheerleading?
