Finding joy in every day life
Hello, I am Dina, a mom, a wife and a person who loves life. This blog is my virtual jar of notes on what brings me joy in day to day life. It includes time with kids, time without kids, food recipes and much more.
Easy Christmas Craft for Toddlers, Kids and Adults
I have to admit I enjoyed this craft as much as my kids! It was so easy and so fun! My company was my 17 months old boy and my 4 years old girl. I have ordered in advance on amazon a set of wooden Christmas tree decorations and we painted away altogether! The results are absolutely wonderful and a delight to look at on our Christmas tree!
Light Toys for the Dark Season
The dark season is upon us. December is the darkest month of the year, but also the most sparkling! All the decorations on the streets and outside the houses make me think of December as a sparkling month! And why not bring the sparkle indoors?! Kids absolutely love the magic of lights in the dark! To help navigate the choice I made the selection of the best light toys from our experience. They would make fantastic Christmas presents and would continue to make your house glow all winter long after Christmas is gone!
Fantastic Christmas Performances to Watch at Home
It’s Christmas at home for millions of people in the UK and around the world. 2020 has been a tough year and it’s not ready to give us a break just yet! To brighten the mood and bring the festive atmosphere back, I collated a list of fantastic Christmas performances to watch at home for kids and adults.
Christmas Decoration Craft
I love to have little rituals while waiting for Christmas, like opening the advent calendar every day, decorating the Christmas tree altogether as a family, or making a Christmas tree decoration ourselves. This year we made a little house with a thatched roof and a tea light inside, and both my daughter and I were excited to put it on the Christmas tree!
In this post, I describe what we used and the steps we followed.
Toys for Babies, Toddlers and Beyond
In this post, I want to share three toys that proved to be a great success with my daughter. All three toys appeared in our house during the first year of her life. Now she is three and still plays with them fondly. These toys make a wonderful Christmas gift.
