Patron Saint of Porn

There are many moments in being a parent where you feel proud. So many times where your little one does something for the first time, or suddenly understands something they didn't before.

Baby A has been amazing us daily of late. So moments of pride are coming thick and fast.

If she's not saying 'crocodile', she's trying to count to 10. Or telling me how many of various things there are. And sometimes getting it right! She's learning something new every single day.

So. Imagine my pride when she saw a picture at a friend's house and beaming, pointed and said 'mummy'.

So cute.

Followed by 'Cat Mummy'.

Even cuter.

'Miaow Mummy'.

Aww...

...but why was I dressed as a cat in the picture, you might ask.

I wasn't.

It wasn't me.

My daughter somehow confused what I would look like if I were dressed up like a cat with an artists impression of an imaginary patron saint of porn.

(although quite why they had that picture is another story).

See for yourselves.

On the plus side, at least she's slim!

Wondermum Makes - Tegenarium - Spider House!

My Mum isn't a lover of spiders and unfortunately she passed this fear unwittingly onto Roar when he was small. She didn't want him to stay afraid and so one Christmas, she bought him a Spider House Kit. Between us we hoped he would learn about them and watch one and see they spend a lot of their time motionless and aren't really that scary. Don't get me wrong, I don't love it when a spider scuttles too close, but it's usually the shock of something scuttling into view that's more 'scary' than the spider itself. Well, that's what I tell myself anyway! We have no poisonous spiders to worry about so there really isn't anything to fear (although I know that isn't the same everywhere). We've had this Spider House Kit tucked away in a box for at least a couple of years as Roar was initially not keen. However, in Lockdown all the 'kits' are coming out and so has this one and, what's more, he's LOVED IT! He has l...

Wondermum Makes - No-Spider Tegenarium / Spiderless Spider House!

Further to my recent post, I realise not everyone loves spiders and not everyone knows where to find them or is sure if their spiders are safe. And, as we also have a toddler in our house, we needed a 'Cub Safe' version to ensure no real spiders are harmed by an excited toddler shaking their spider-house! So we decided to make a pretend spider so Cub could also be included :) To make the actual spider house, see my other post - this is just to make the fake spiders! Things You Will Need Our list included single and double-sided tape, curling ribbon, scissors, paper, black pen and optional googly-eyes :) But if you don't have all of the above, you could use glue instead of tape or double-back on itself some single sided tape to make it double-side. Curling ribbon could be string/cotton/wool etc. Your spider can be any colour so any colour paper will do or colour some in. You could even use newspaper! And if you don't have googly-eyes, you can m...

Wondermum Makes - NHS Superhero Angels

Thursday night we 'clapped for carers' and made as much noise as possible in the Thursday night tradition (the UK's way of saying thanks to all the care workers for all they are doing to keep everyone safe throughout this Corona-virus). This inspired our craft idea for today and we made some NHS Superheroes but instead of the traditional hero capes, we decided they were also Angels and so their capes are Angel inspired 'wing-capes' instead :) Things You Will Need We had: various coloured paper, stapler (with staples loaded), cardboard tube, single and double-sided tape, scissors, crayons (for faces), felt tips (for eye colours), black pencil (for mouth), sandwich bag (for mask). We also show pegs and Gorilla glue (super glue) but these are an alternative option as we only needed to use the stapler and tape. If you do use glue, the pegs are to hold it together while drying as we have used this method previously. The other items we didn...
