camo bedding and accessories

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

Do you notice that kids like things that are matching? Or is under mom’s influence that blue should be paired with blue and pink with pink? At this age, my three and a half doesn’t quite bother what matches and what don’t but very soon, he would be. I realize that girls tend to be [...]

What will I do if I have a little girl? Dress her up, of course! When I was little, I played with paper dolls. I would dress them up, make and design clothes for them, colour them, style them… the pretend play process was satisfying and good feminine fun. Till this day, little pretty skirts [...]

I’m one mom who believes that children learn best at play. Being full time to an active preschooler has taught me to be more creative in my upbringing process which includes exposing my boy to learning adventures in books, educational programs and outdoor activities.
