Mittens has been attending lessons at Thinkersbox for a few months now, and when they introduced their Intellibox, I almost rolled my eyes thinking, not another box concept! It seems these days the market has been flooded with so many of these monthly boxes which includes everything you need for a good time with your… Continue reading Thinkersbox Intellibox review and giveaway
You can never have too many books, as a friend of mine once said. Well I’ve had to resist buying books recently because there just seems to be too many books and too little time to read.

I don’t think I’m the most I’ve been a little lazy recently on the “homeschooling”… Continue reading Homeschooling – August 2011
