Learning. Fun. Games
I decided to check on my little cousins last weekend as I haven’t seen them in a long time. Before then, their mom had engaged me severally on what to do with the kids this long holiday and each time I raised the extracurricular topic, she was indifferent about it.
Summer holiday equals play time with a capital P. But play doesnt always mean that a child is not learning. Experts say its important not to allow “brain slump” during the long summer holidays but does this have to mean little or no play?? So an important question for parents this summer is […]
The long vacation is almost here , the kids are going to be spending more unsupervised time at home with nannies, domestic helps, drivers, uncles, aunts and cousins. Have you spoken to them about sex education and protecting their bodies?

This year, I decided to do a survey among my friends to find out what their ideal Father’s Day gift is. The result was both interesting and surprising. Men must really be uncomplicated and women are from Venus. I expected lots of paparazzi, over the top and out of the box thinking to guess what […]
