Want to know my must-have nappy bag essential for

Want to know my must-have nappy bag essential for keeping little hands busy when we’re out and about? 🙊STICKERS! When Lilly was little, I’d always have a container of stickers, a notebook and some colouring pencils in my bag for those moments when we needed a very impatient toddler to be patient. Now we have three little people, we mostly avoid those situations #Honestly 😂But when we DO need to take three little people out, I’ll usually grab these and run out the door and they never disappoint. Something like this is so easy to alter for various ages too.If you have a younger toddler, try just making some spots on the page with a pencil and invite your little learner to cover the spots with any sticker.Draw different shapes or zig zags or wavy lines for your little learner to follow with stickers.You could write the letters of your 4 year old’s name and then write the letters on dot stickers for matching too.A school aged kiddo could match addition sums written on stickers to the totals written on the paper.Something like this is so easy to throw together when you’re waiting for food at a cafe or waiting to see your GP!Like this little tip? Save this post so you can find it quickly when you need some inspo 🥰

Let’s face it, sensory play can get messy pretty quick!Here are a few tips before you get started:⭐ Prepare for the mess - Make sure you have everything on hand for tidying up before you even get started.
⭐ Prepare the area - Pop a big queen sized sheet down on the floor to catch spills, keep the mess contained but also definite the space where mess is OKAY.
⭐ Just have fun! I guarantee that your little one is having a wonderful time and learning so much through the experience. Even if the mess is hard to look past!Let me know - do you love sensory play or does the thought of cleaning up the mess turn you off trying it?

Umm who has time to play with their kids like that

Umm who has time to play with their kids like that?” 🙄Back when I was a new mama, I was left feeling a bit overwhelmed. I had an energetic toddler named Lilly and wanted to inject more play into our days at home together! I’d set up fun little sensory play activities and excitedly rotated her toys each week to keep things fun and fresh.But sometimes felt like I was made fun of for wanting to create playful experiences for Lilly. Sometimes I felt like others perceived me to be *trying too hard* to be a fun mum. But honestly? I just LOVED playing with her! I had spent years waiting so impatiently to marry Kurtis and have his babies 🙊But anyway, fast forward many years, a few more babies, lots of experimenting and I finally found my playful feet.I don’t stress about those that don’t *get* my passion for play. I’m totally confident in my ability to be a playful parent. My mission in life is to create play experiences and invitations that allow me to build a beautiful, playful bond with my children. I want them to look back on their childhood with so much joy and be filled with playful memories!And that is why I started the Little Play Club! I don’t want anyone to feel like they’re being an “IG show pony” for wanting to enjoy their time at home with their little learners!I am here to support you and YOUR playful journey....whether you love sensory play, creating beautiful play environments, setting up exquisite play invitations or getting playful in the great outdoors. Whether you’re a stay at home mum or work full-time. Whether you love all things Grimms or love a good Pinterest hack..The doors to the Little Play Club are closing at 10pm AEST TONIGHT and I’m so excited to welcome you in as a member! I can’t wait to share my passion for play with you and your little learners too ❤️ Click the link in my bio!

With the doors to the Little Play Club closing in

With the doors to the Little Play Club closing in just over 24 hours, tonight I thought I’d share some of my favourite activities from a few of our play packs!For me, this is all about connecting with our little people. This year we have one child in school 5 days and another at kindy 3 days a week, so when they’re home we’re looking for ways to slow down and make magical memories together. And this is how we choose to do it - through play!Sometimes our focus is on preparing their play spaces to invite them to play independently and ease into our afternoon routines. Other times we prepare an invitation like these to connect as a family. Other times we want to work on a specific skill. And sometimes we just need *something* to get us through to dinner time.I absolutely love preparing these invitations not only for our own little learners, but for the other 700 playful families inside our community. Want to join the fun too? The link is in my bio! ✨

And THIS is what it’s all about! The Little Play Club is like the mother’s group you always wished you could have been a part of 😍 It’s the most beautiful, supportive, passionate group of playful parents I’ve come across and we can’t wait for you to come and join us too!

Feed the farm animals! 🐮 🐷 🐴 I’ve never

Feed the farm animals! 🐮 🐷 🐴 I’ve never met a little learner that doesn’t love scooping and pouring!Whether it’s pouring water from cup to cup in the mud kitchen or some dried cereal or rice from spoon to bowl in a sensory tub, kids love to pour! It’s wonderful for their fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination and you can even practise counting while you play!I love to include a pouring or posting activity in our Play Packs over in the Little Play Club and this is one from our Farm theme! I made some little cards to work on some numeral recognition with Elliot but you could also just use a dice to work on subitising (knowing how many without counting) or even just some good old dot counting.This activity caught the attention of all three children aged 1, 3.5 and 5.5 years so I think we’re onto a winner 🙊 Would your little learners enjoy this one? Let me know! 👇🏻PS - I’d love for you to come join us in the Little Play Club so you can grab this fun little activity and sooooo many more! Doors close Friday evening!

Our Little Play Club community is filled with hund

Our Little Play Club community is filled with hundreds of playful parents, all with one thing in common - a passion for connecting through play!There’s no denying that play has become a bit of a buzz word on social media. Everyone has an opinion about what play is, how it should look and how involved parents should be.But there’s one thing you can’t deny - play is pretty special. It’s how our children make sense of the world around them. It comes so naturally to our little learners and it’s something we should protect with every fibre of our being.But do you know what? I will always advocate for play being a beautiful way to connect with your little learners.In our Little Play Club community, we have parents from all over the world. Some are home full-time, some study, some work, some have lots of kids, some have one child. Some homeschool, some send their littles to school. Some love printed activities, some prefer sensory play.But we all have one thing in common. And that is a love for all things play. And we’d love for you to come and join us! The link is in my bio 💞
