geek parenting done right
Donating : Nappies This month we got rid of all our unused odd disposable nappies by dropping them off at The Nappy Collective. It’s a fantastic cause that gives nappies to less fortunate families. They do several drives a year so save up those two or three left over when bubs goes up a size […]
So Why Keep Them Awake? And How Long For? Basically it guarantees a better result. When you’re super tired, there’s a greater chance to record unusual electrical activity in the brain. A sleep deprived EEG test is usually ordered after your little one has been through a standard EEG that […]
This week an article was written in the Daily Mail condemning several bloggers for being so called ‘gin soaked slummy mummies’ because they frequently write about their mummy fails. Really? Aren’t we better than this yet? We’re still criticizing other women for choices they’ve made and shaming those who choose to share the crappier moments […]
Since going gluten free I had to give up a lot of stuff. The dream of a gluten free bread that can be eaten untoasted, for instance. I’m lucky that I was diagnosed in 2017 instead 5 years ago though because there is a whole damn world out there of tasty GF treats just waiting […]

If someone asks me to think of a quintessentially Australian experience, I automatically think of ANZAC Day. It perfectly demonstrates the dichotomy of Australian culture – we attend deeply respectful services in the morning, then we have a craic playing two up and listening to yarns in the afternoon. We are a nation of larrikins, […]
So for Easter I normally just give people a packet of chocolate eggs and an Elegant Rabbit in the plastic shopping bag they came in. Gorgeous I know. Since I’ve started this blog, I seem to be slowly morphing into a Pinterest mum who not only does crafts but manages to package presents. When I […]
We all know toddlers love mess. Oh my god do they love it. This is possibly the messiest craft activity I have ever seen, but it was so much fun it was almost worth the mess. Almost. Watching the glee on a toddler’s face as they squelch and smoosh shaving cream is definitely something everyone […]
