It’s easy to be stuck feeling helpless when mediocre ‘Net Zero by 2050’ government policies are emerging from the COP26 summit. A future not near good enough for our kids has us worried, however, it is more clear now than ever that change is on the horizon. It is us as individuals who will embrace it, ask for change and create change. Our top three tips for making changes at home, and demanding change from those outside it.

Christmas is the perfect time to get crafty with your little ones - so gather up some sticks, flowers & plants and create a handmade wreath together that you will be proud to hang on your door!

From co-parenting their daughter H to successfully running a small eco-friendly business built on custom and child-friendly furniture, Stephanie and Lauren tell us all about how Little Big Learning came to be from Perth in Western Australia.

Each Christmas our families follow the rule of four when it comes to gift giving: Something they want, something they need, something to wear something to read. It’s a great way to encourage kids to think about what they really want and will appreciate versus something that will end up at the bottom of the toy pile in a weeks time.

If you have fussy eaters like me  - a pick and mix plate is probably your go to for weeknight dinners.

Its important to remember that a child's palette is different to ours and will take time to mature. So how do we encourage them to make healthy eating choices?

Eliminating stress at the dinner table is key for this.

By breaking a meal down into separated ingredients with a couple of ‘safe foods’ thrown in for good measure we are giving our kids freedom of choice whilst modelling good eating habits. Yes – the broccoli may often remain on the plate at the end of the meal but if we consistently offer healthy foods (without pressure) the idea is that the kids will eventually give them a try.

Bring Spring in with your little loves and sow some seeds that up-cycle your eggshells at the same time! It’s such a great time to do projects with the kids and there is a lot of joy (and learning) that can come from watching seeds turn into plants.

If you have some time to spare we guarantee you have the ingredients needed to make this easy, fun and absolutely delicious focaccia to keep you and the kids happy and full and your house smelling of warm bread.

These delicious snacks are one of the weekly ‘go to’ recipes in my family. Savoury muffins are a great way to get an extra serving of veg into the kids meals and you can switch out the sweet potato for any veges you have on hand (butternut squash, zuchini, or throw in some corn)
