It was the Sunday before school started again after the Christmas and new year break. We were wondering... "Where to go? What to do?" Those were the usual questions when thinking of activities for our family. While I was washing the dishes, The Mind Museum came to mind and good thing hubby scored an online deal for five all-day passes at a discounted price.

It will be furnished with a library … [Read more...]

The truth is that most kids consider such activities so boring that they rarely listen to the detailed instructions given by us, their parents. No matter how hard we try, some children are simply reluctant to clean their rooms on a regular basis. If you wonder how to create a safe and … [Read more...]
