The weather is getting a tad bit better and Bear has been playing in the garden a lot so we decided to get some new flowers to plant. Bear really enjoyed planting flowers last year and now he is older he can start to understand how things grow and the responsibility of looking after his flowers. Gardening is great for kids, they can learn new skills, have fun and play. Most children enjoy being outdoors and love digging in the soil, getting dirty, creating things and watching plants grow.

We took Bear to buy the flowers and compost and he picked which ones he wanted, he helped daddy put new compost in the pots and dig little holes for the flowers to go in. We talked to him about what plants needed to grow and then he finished of by watering the flowers. Just as it started to rain!!

If your looking for something to do that's easy and the kids will love, do this!

For the past year or so, I have been subscribing to a fortnightly craft box for Bear. It's motto, "Quality Time. Delivered." That's exactly what it is! I'm not the most crafty mum and Bear was getting bored of just drawing and painting and sticking random bits of magazines to paper. When I heard about Toucan box I thought it would be great for Bear and we all love it!

A little box that comes in the post for Bear, which he thinks is amazing as it has his name on it. In it is all the materials you need, to learn,create, explore and play. Every box has a different topic aimed at children ages 3 to 8 and is great value for money. The box comes with easy instructions to follow and sometimes you get bonus crafts to do. We get the petite box which is £3.95 and £0.98 postage per fortnight. We have made treasure maps, bird feeders, jelly fish and loads more. The materials are good quality and the only thing you'll need occasionally is a pair of scissors.

The latest box that we received has been Bear's favourite so far. Its was a kite, so easy to make and he made it with his Auntie Hannah. We took it outside to fly and it worked! I have saved two boxes for the Easter holidays, one is to make a dinosaur tail which I think Harvey is going to have a lot of fun making!
