Growing up I remember my brother having all the Lego. Loads of it. On rare occasions I remember getting to play with it. Not until I was a lot older because of all the bits. For the Robots 1st Christmas he got given a set of Lego Duplo. At 6 …
There was one comment on last weeks round up post from my blogger friend who said “reading through the lines it’s been a tough week”. She is spot on, I don’t like to dwell on it much though because I like to write off the bad days as just that, …
I need to keep telling myself about the long game. Everything I am working towards is my long game goal. The reason I blog, the reason I create, the reason I make. The Long Game. What am I going on about I hear you ask? The time when my kids …
When I was trying to come up with an idea for play and the Letter K I kept on coming back to the kitchen or keep fit. Kitchen play is something I do too often and I would be making stuff up if I told you I was keeping fit …
Finish Along Q2 2018 For those of you that love a list this is the perfect post to read! For the past 3 months I have been beavering away making things and sharing them over on my Instagram page @twotinymakes. This blog post is to celebrate those finishes and tell …
When the Robot turned two I thought it would be fun to start a journal with him. Journaling with toddlers can only be fun right!? Journals and journaling is something I’ve always loved doing, keeping a diary on and off throughout my childhood and now with my bullet journal I …
The Letter I for a title today, it’s a bit of a cheat word for this weeks abc123challenge round-up. We’re not as organised this week either. My best friend came to visit us on Friday so I’ve not had the usual time to write. I’m sat in a cafe with …
Rainbow Pencil Case Alison Glass fabric is so colourful, it deserves to make a rainbow. I bought a fat eighth bundle of her Sun prints collection not so long ago so that I could have a play and make a rainbow. I like pouches and cases so I decided to …
The last time we did the #ABC123Challenge we did ice play for I. This time round was a completely different experience. Ice play is more fun the older you are! The set up for ice play is one to prepare in advance. Out freezer is in the cellar which is …
H is for Holiday! We went to London for a long weekend last week. It has to be our first proper break away since baby CABS was born and it was well overdue. The short Winter months with a newborn have dragged and we can see the spring in plain …
One of my bucket list items this year was to make keepsake quilts for my kids out of their baby grows. Getting totally sidetracked from this though I have ended up making a cuddly patchwork cat toy from the Robots tiny clothes. While I was making it I got very …
Sometimes you just get stuck at home on a home play day. We’re not very good at being in all day. If it’s the weekend then it’s even worse. Dave is hopeless at staying in and we’re always on the go at the weekend because of it. There are times …
Before I had kids I used to allotment and volunteer in GirlGuiding. I always used to want to share my love of the outdoors with my Brownies and Guides and would often find ways to get them growing things. Most often growing cress! Unfortunately due to moving and the demands …
It’s Friday when I normally try write-up my round-ups. The perfect day for a letter F. As usual the week has flown by faster than ever. We’ve had plenty of fun but I clicked my neck one morning half way through the week so I’ve had a not so pleasant …
Baby Toy Carrier It’s been something that I’ve wanted to make the Robot for so long now. As an avid baby wearer I always carried the Robot and now he can walk he often wants to copy what he sees around him. His Mummy carrying his baby sister! It took …
