MUMMY TO THE MAX

To round up the month I thought I would share another giveaway with my readers. Last month the Playmobil Giveaway seemed very popular so I thought I would run another one. This month you are able to win a Playmobil Pirate.

I have made no secret that I completely adore holidaying in the UK. I have never flown on a plane and since having a little family of my own, I have opted to holiday in the UK. This year we are proud to have been selected as Away Resorts Great British Bloggers and we are very excited to be able to stay at Mill Rythe in Hayling Island in the next couple of weeks as a family of 3.

 Today I present to you Matching Pairs. This task is simple to follow however the sheet also doubles up as a colouring sheet. When Maxwell completes this sheet, I ask him to copy the colouring of the pictures on the right hand side. I feel this added task keeps him occupied for that little longer. To take part in this activity all you and your child need to do is match up the animal pairs.

This is one of my favourite activities that I have managed to create for my blog. The whole concept of this activity is fun. All you simply need to do is print out the work sheet that goes with this activity and dice and fix it together and you are ready to go.

This month I bring to you, Zoo Week. This month I thought it would be lovely to focus on zoo type of animals. This week I have a few fun printable for you to enjoy, a competition and a recipe. What is there not to love? Today I am sharing with you an activity which Maxwell enjoys doing - cutting practice.

For as long as I remember, I have always had the money saving bug in me. From coupons to looking for glitches, I have always loved to make my money go as far as possible. For the last couple of years I have been keeping a secret from all my friends and family, I have been refilling well know branded items up around my house hold, with cheaper alternatives. Cheaper alternatives are not bad. They have less prettier packaging and the taste can sometimes be different.

As many of my readers know, I love seeking out a bargain. As a parent, I often go out of my way to head to the high-street and stock up on any bargains that I am able to find. I have loved my local high street in Southampton for many years but recently I have been visiting other local high streets. One of my favourite high streets to head to is Portsmouth.

Life has been so busy recently and I have not seemed to have written an update about life. I thought I would start writing a post monthly about what we have been up to and how Maxwell is getting on. We have recently had quite a few busy months which have left me with little time to do much. Maxwell starts school in September so I have been trying to make the most of the time we have left together before school takes over our worlds.
