Five things every child needs to hear
Would you like to invent a device that magically zaps into the memory of your child, everything that you need them to know? Sounds like a instant hit but in reality, such a contraption would be scary. However, if such a thing were invented, what messages would you zap into your child’s brain and why?…
Why I spent the last 23 minutes singing in the kitchen while my children quarrelled outside
Picture the scene if you will: kettle on, tea bag, one dunkable biscuit. It’s a beautiful morning, the birds are singing happily but drowned out just ever so slightly by the noise of three children bickering.

After yesterday’s discussion about the best way to tap into our young people’s potential, it was with a mixture of interest and anticipation that I entered year 10 sex education class this morning.
If you want to take over the world – look to young people.
After a late night last night laughing with the very excellent Tim Vine, I was going to share the joy of laughter with you this morning. That can wait until another day because instead, I’m delighted to introduce the lovely Ben Lumley from 6aliens.com. Until I came across Ben’s blog, I hadn’t heard the phrase…
The Importance Of Good Parenting
When offering advice on parenting, one of the first things people want to know is whether or not you have the necessary credentials to offer said advice. Unlike some who have taken courses on the subject but have never raised a child themselves, I can say that I have helped
