As the mum of two kids who have synchronised their lives so that I never get a break, I have become a master of multi tasking! Blogging is something I love and it’s also a great way for me to earn money, however the time I have to actually sit down at my laptop is pretty limited. This week I’ve been reading this post about the most innovative technology for day to day living and so I thought I’d share the best ways that bloggers can make use of technology, which in my opinion today is by using apps! Apps are a great way that you can sneak in a few minutes blog work while making a cup of tea or waiting at the school gate, so here’s my guide to great apps for bloggers!
Kid Made Seashell Decorations
Do your kids come home from the beach carrying loads of seashells? I know mine do and to be honest I’m often known to pop a couple in my pocket myself, I normally have no idea what to do with them but I can’t resist pretty things! I had an idea earlier this week about using them to make some kind of seashell decorations and as chance would have it we made these one day and decided to decorate my son’s room in a seaside theme the next day. Room decorations at the ready – boom!

How to make a toy teepee
Did you play with Sylvanian Families toys when you were a kid? I did and I loved them, so when we were offered the chance to review the Bear Family I jumped at the chance because, well, I’m 35 and I wanted an excuse to play with them. Go me! With my daughter being one and my son being four Sylvanian Families are a pretty new thing to them, so I thought I’d set them a little crafty challenge, also they love little suprises! These card teepees are super simple to make and would suit most other small toys too. So that you can do as little prep a possible, I’ve included a free downloadable template so if you want to know how to make a toy teepee all you have to do is print it out and get decorating!
