Wow, what a crazy and weird few months we have all experienced. Such a rollercoaster of emotions for all of us with so many changes and so much unknown. Personally I’ve had good days and some days have been a real struggle. I have experienced every emotion I think possible, from proud moments when my […]
A tuff tray is such a great resource. We use tuff trays at Little Learners classes and I get asked so often where to buy them, and for simple ideas of how to use them at home. Since we are all spending a lot more time at home I thought I would share some ideas. […]
During lockdown the kids and I have played a lot of board games and made lots of puzzles. I found that games are a bit like books, children get drawn to the same ones over and over again! Board games are great for learning to take turns, counting and accepting you can’t always win. This […]
I made these cute, effective and very easy Easter cards with my two children. These cards can be made with any age, even with babies. All you need is: Card ( we used green card so the background could be grass), you could also use paper. Yellow Paint (alternatively you could use crayons, colouring pencils). […]

These can also be carried out home, so you can have a very merry Christmas with Little Learners but from the comfort of your own cosy […]
Wowsers, where did that school year go? In September my eldest started in Year R and I feel I’ve blinked and he’s now at the end. So although I’m looking forward to not doing last minute ironing, running up the hill to and from school or finding water bottles, book bags and jumpers, I’m also […]
Ahhhhhhhh Father’s Day is this SUNDAY! I’ve had a super busy weekend and suddenly realised the day is very soon. So I was on a mission. A play date turned into an arts session with paint, masking tape, paper and two toddlers. What could go wrong? We decided on masking tape and paint pictures as […]
Our fun with cardboard boxes and mark making all started last weekend when my daughter got a ‘proper bed’ and my husband had finished assembling it. He was heading to the recycling bin when I stopped him. Surely this could be used before it got put in the bin? So over the next few days […]
