the things Monkey and I make

ClangersForKindness

#ClangersForKindness – giveaway

25th November 201622nd November 2016 Over 40 and a Mum to OneArts and Craft

As I’m of a certain age, I grew up with the original series of the Clangers, and it was one of my favourite programmes as a child.  I’d actually bought the DVD of the series for Monkey when I was pregnant.  There was no way this child wasn’t going to grow up being a fan…Continue reading #ClangersForKindness – giveaway

Bunchems! On the Go Easel

Bunchems! On the Go Easel

23rd November 201617th November 2016 Over 40 and a Mum to OneArts and Craft

We’re always eager to try new things here, and when it’s a mess free craft too, we are most definitely at the front of the queue.  I see so many craft sets that are pink and fluffy and so obviously marketed at girls.  But, waving hands, my son likes making things too, he’s just not…Continue reading Bunchems!

Getting crafty with My Gecko Box – review and giveaway

20th October 201628th December 2017 Over 40 and a Mum to OneArts and Craft

Monkey has struggled a little since he started in Year Two.  For the last month he’s come home and been a little like a bear with a sore head.  It’s been hard to get him motivated to try the fun activities we’ve done in the past.  But he seems to be settling into the routine…Continue reading Getting crafty with My Gecko Box – review and giveaway

Monkey and I were in need of some fresh air last Saturday.  We decided on a woodland walk and crafting session and headed off to the woods.  Monkey’s been asking me to make him a dream catcher for ages, so I suggested we incorporate a few of his favourite things into our design.  Armed with a bag…Continue reading A woodland walk and crafting session #weloveforests

Spring Crafting with Baker Ross

23rd May 201619th May 2016 Over 40 and a Mum to OneArts and Craft

Monkey has been kept on his toes recently with lots of Spring Crafting with Baker Ross. We were sent a bumper delivery from our favourite kids arts and craft kit company and have spent spare moments over the last few weeks painting, drawing, sewing and more besides. Monkey loves wild animals and visiting Whipsnade Zoo is always a…Continue reading Spring Crafting with Baker Ross

Instant Flower Press

Instant Flower Press

28th April 201625th January 2018 Over 40 and a Mum to OneArts and Craft

As a child I can remember staying with my Auntie for the week.  We got up to all sorts of adventures and one was pressing flowers.  I think it was the first time I’d ever tried it, we’d been for a walk and picked wild flowers and grasses along the way, came home, put them…Continue reading Instant Flower Press
