That includes opening the box, finding my rubber mallet and assembling the car. The PlasmaCar was VERY easy and SUPER fast to assemble and definitely MOMMY APPROVED! Now, I’ve always claimed to be honest on this blog, so today I will continue that, despite my … Continue reading →

My husband and I chose one favourite book, Guess How Much I Love You by Sam McBratney and we read it to my tummy almost every day. At the time, I was a Kindergarten teacher and children’s literacy was such a passion of mine (it still is!). We have … Continue reading →
