Summer in St Remy has come around quickly this year.
Design a lush woodland garden with a collection of shade-loving shrubs, foliage, flowers and bulbs from HGTV Gardens.
Enter The loft nu het nog kan! Tot en met zondag 6 september mag je het huis binnen van de fictieve bewoner mr. Benjamin op de Prinsengracht in Amsterdam. Een bereisde, levenswijze kunstenaar met een onberispelijke smaak. Ik ben sowieso gek op binnenkijken, heb zelfs ooit overwogen om makelaar te worden. Maar dat idee was eerlijk gezegd meer gefundeerd op […]
So this is round two of my summer catch-up posts! Now that me and my mister share looking after our daughter AND running the shop, we had very little time this summer together (this is a short term thing!). I don't take the camera with me all the time obviously but my mister is always better organised about these things, and he took some photos of trips with the tot to the local beaches, belly boarding and crabbing off the pier... (prehistoric crabbing line and filthy dress well documented here) Unfortunately although crabs were caught, they decided the bucket wasn't for them, and released their grip on the tasty prawns and fell back into the sea. In other news, we went to London for a short work related trip, and decided to all go. (sugary naughties also well documented here). Littlun here displaying her pigeon on one leg impression. We parked in front of her favourite London playground...and then took a trip to west end, Nao bought a new tote bag, which we found quite handy at the time... Before going home, we awoke early and drove to Kempton market. We were quite surprised at the bargains we found there. The littlun found a toy phone, (although I should say that it's not an original one) but she liked it just the same, so thats fine by me ; ) After phoning Father Christmas to request a Buzz Lightyear, she dragged it through the market at much annoyance of the other people there I'm sure. My mister bought a funny French bike (which was quite pricey I thought!) but he loves it! He 'commutes' the 100 yards to our shop on it! Other things we bought... a homemade wooden town, £20 Tiny bobble hat (free with jacket) sewing bits and bobs (£2 each) wooden beads (free with jacket) toddler jumpers (£1 each) 1940s silk devore dress (£10) bird prints (can't remember what we paid for these but they weren't cheap!) for our shop display crab napkin (£1) post office trunk (£10 or £15 I think?) corduroy jacket (£10) Back on the Island, I had a badly timed cold virus type thing which left me feeling like poo for about two weeks (in fact I am still coughing and sniffing as I type this). So I have been the world's most boring mum to our very tolerant toddler. I did manage a few short walks on various beaches though... A little walk across the boggy terrain of Newtown... BUT mega chuffed to have bumped into Dame Ellen MacArthur's dog! she is one of my heroes. (Ellen, not the dog I mean) How ever the peace and tranquility of the place was some what disrupted but a grumpy sleepy screaming tot, so we had to make a quick and slightly embarrassing exit back along the bridge! (that's her British granny with us too btw) (the perfect angel as soon as there were no people around, gah!!) So anyways, that's it folks! Hope you all had lovely relaxing and sun drenched summers?? ; )

There's a new playground in town and we've got the inside scoop on this interactive play area that incorporates sound and motion.
Housed in the former home of the 10-story International Shoe Company, the sprawling 600,000 square-foot City Museum in St. Louis is quite possibly the ultimate urban playground ever constructed. The museum is the brainchild of artist and sculptor Bob Cassilly who opened the space in 1997 after years of renovation and construction. Although Cassilly passed away in 2011, the museum is perpetually under construction as new features are added or improved thanks to a ragtag group of 20 artists known affectionately as the Cassilly Crew.

No study of architecture and engineering would be complete without talking about the Great Pyramids. Egyptian architecture is as mesmerizing in the 21st century as it must have been mystifying when they were constructed. And thanks to Bubble Guppies, a subject of great fascination to my preschool and toddler too! Egyptian Architecture…

Once again our little Stomper's have amazed us with their energy and interest in the world around them. Enjoy! Looking for worms! Looking for bugs under the bark! Den Building -Day 1 We put together a basket of old sheets, rope and lots of clothes pegs. Without any instruction we set it out for the children and stood back. The children dove in and had a blast. The planning, organizing and negotiating that went into their play was amazing. Den Building - Day 2 Once again they were excited to get started. This time they knew exactly what they wanted to do. The clay tiles were brought in for drainage. I heard one child say they needed a tunnel for the river to go through. They never tire of dropping things off the bridge into the creek below. a Leaf Umbrellas! Tins with magnets! Sometimes our walks are long and we need to stop for a rest! The chestnut seeds we planted last fall are growing! Hooray for Spring... Thanks for Stomping by!
