I don't think I've looked at one for Sam who turns 3 next week! Loving the Berenstain Bears - they are also popular on Planet Baby ☺.

When I collect my boys from school we go home, have some fruit salad, play in the garden, do homework and just hang out, it's what they need after a long day. At the weekends there's plenty of time for swimming and soccer and meeting up with pals :-) As for parenting books, I've bought 2 in my whole life and sold them both on eBay, nobody knows what's best for their own kids than their parents :-)Thrifted Treasurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06977265626746630973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809259912539352379.post-1421838075574368272012-07-03T16:37:01.490+10:002012-07-03T16:37:01.490+10:00Hilarious!

What a great message :) It's so funny, do you know I've been meaning to buy that Simplicity Parenting book for several weeks now - I actually was all set to push 'purchase' the other day and then Sophie woke from her nap and I forgot all about it when Paul closed my window on the computer. I'm off to buy it now I've decided while I still remember... and perhaps the 'Berenstein Bear Parenting Guide' too :)Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14697932926715802541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809259912539352379.post-6254151810848786672012-07-03T15:53:16.014+10:002012-07-03T15:53:16.014+10:00So true!
