Oli & Sophie’s Top 20 picks of what to watch on Netflix!
We love Netflix in our home! I did this post last year on what we’ve been watching (my husband and I) but now it’s the kid’s turn! Inevitably, my two argue over who’s turn it is to pick what to watch when they’re allowed some screen time. Since they’re nearly three years apart in age…
It’s okay to be different!
It’s okay to be different – this is something I’m constantly reinforcing with my 6-year-old, Oli. Oli was a late talker, for no particular reason, he just was. He is our first born, has no problem with his ears (or eyes for that matter), but just was very late to talk. When other kids were…
Finding our feet
Woah, Momma! The last few weeks have kicked our little (or ample) butts. And I know I’m not the only one feeling like this. Grade 1 and Grade RRR started off with a bang, I couldn’t be prouder of our two beautiful children that marched proudly into their (separate) schools armed with smiles and confidence….
Let’s learn numbers: number recognition sensory box!
You might remember I had a friend of mine, Tash, share her Rainbow Rice recipe here on my blog. A few weeks ago, I stumbled upon the use of coloured beans in sensory boxes on Pinterest. Anything bright and colourful is bound to attract the attention of my kids, in this instance, particularly Soph, who…

{The best shoelace tying hack ever!) Sh*t’s getting real!
Top of my forever growing to-do list this holiday has been ‘Teach Oli to tie his shoelaces’. It’s remained there at the top, until Monday when I finally just did it. I think I kept procrastinating it as it signals his start of big school. We had an orientation day with Oli’s new school at…
Snow sensory box – the only snow we’ll see this holiday!
We were sent some amazing Zimpli Kids products to try out and were immediately drawn to the SnoBall Battle Pack. Although we decided not to use the SnoBall’s in ‘battle’ we decided to make a fun snow sensory box to play with, and to celebrate the snowscapes the Northern hemisphere is getting. We’ve promised Oli…
Wow.
Wow. Just wow. What a year 2018 was for Mommalikeme! If I think back to this time last year, I never thought this little pipeline dream and passion project of mine would have achieved so many highs in such a short space of time. Besides my blog turning one, so many dreams have been realised….
You’ll never be ‘board’ this holiday with Ravensburger!
Two weeks ago we got to take the kids to the Ravensburger activation at our local ToyZone and boy oh boy did they have a blast (Oli especially)! Oli is at the perfect age right now for board games as they can hold his attention long enough and he can grasp the concepts and understands…
Snickerdoodles – the perfect Christmas cookie!
Cinnamon is one scent that immediately takes me back to Christmas in my mind, which is why these cookies will make the perfect addition to your Festive baking repertoire! I have used the recipe from Sally’s Baking Addiction and it doesn’t disappoint! For the cookies: 3 cups all-purpose flour 2 tsp cream of tartar…
