Tips and tales from a mum of two. Saturday, May 19, 2012. How to make a baby. 13 steps to getting a positive pregnancy test. When you and your partner make the decision to try for a baby, it can be an exciting (and let’s be honest, very enjoyable) time. But the fun can very often turn into frustration when month after month you are still not pregnant. 2 The next thing you can do is get a checkup with your GP.

Tips and tales from a mum of two. Monday, January 23, 2012. Why every child should learn to read music and play an instrument. As children across the Far North prepare to return to school next week, I thought that instead of writing a cliched column about the first day of school, I would write about something close to my heart that is often overlooked by many parents in regards to their child’s education – and that is, music education. In other words, children who learn music achieve greater success at s...

Tips and tales from a mum of two. Saturday, March 24, 2012. Choosing the sex of your baby stirs up many ethical questions. Imagine you are about to have your third child.

Tips and tales from a mum of two. Monday, October 31, 2011. No cotton wool here. Give your kids good old fashioned fun and adventure that’s more than just camping and biscuits. What do Bert Newton, Jamie Durie, Peter Garrett, Dick Smith and Sir Jack Brabham have in common? They were all Cub Scouts in their younger years. Last week I wrote about the importance of children learning life skills such as self-defence, but just as important is also getting kids outdoors. In my circle of friends, I see this tre...

Mumologues: The price of parenting
http://mumologues.blogspot.com/2012/06/price-of-parenting.html
Tips and tales from a mum of two. Saturday, June 2, 2012. The price of parenting. When did baby teeth become so expensive? This week my six-year-old daughter asked me one of those questions that are nearly impossible for parents to answer. The kind that make you “um” and “aah” while searching the empty parts of your brain for some creative genius response that will not only answer the question but leaves the child with no further uncomfortable questions. Some even got toys as well as cash. So when the fi...

Tips and tales from a mum of two. Sunday, June 17, 2012. It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to. How to keep the tears and tantrums at bay on your child’s birthday. Remember the parties you hosted for your first born child? Until they reached a certain age, they always involved tears, and for some reason this always surprised me.

Tips and tales from a mum of two. Saturday, May 19, 2012. How to deal with the child that doesn’t stop nagging. Last weekend my family attended a local market which featured a large number of stalls selling baby items, girl’s accessories (hair clips, jewellery, etc) and toys, as well as the general bric-a-brac, antiques, plants, homemade cakes and so on.
