I have been bribed into Indoor Play Centre Hell. Nefarious was invited to a classmate’s birthday party at an indoor play centre: multi-level playground with soft-fall mats, trampolines, rock climbing walls… A kid’s dream! And a parent’s nightmare!! So noisy! So crowded!! I am down with the Mother of All […]
I have just come back from a serious marathon road trip with the spawnlings, and my most favourite part of it all was the Nintendo 2DS. Well, that’s not completely true. The spawnlings were kind of fun as well. I’ll be the first to admit I had my trepidations. […]
And I thought I had a twisted sense of humour. But I’m not the one who arranged a Childcare Centre strike on International Women’s Day. I kid you not. Around 1000 Australian Childcare workers are going on strike at 3.20pm on Wednesday 8 March 2017. Look, I get it. I […]
Trump was at CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) last Friday. No surprise there. There was flag-waving at this Good Ol’ U S of A event. Again, no surprise. But did anyone have a good look at those flags? Yessiree minions! That’s the Russian flag!! It took a few minutes (enough […]
For years, I’ve been blaming the wrong person. For years, I have been teasing EG Dad about his need for structure and order. Clearly, our 17 years of non-fatal co-habitation shows he has mellowed over time, which has been good for him. Because there are very few neat-freak, organised perfectionists […]
It’s a little hot in the EG Lair today. In this type of weather, no-one is a happy camper. We don’t have aircon, and we’re OK with that. It used to be only a few days each Summer that actually required serious cooling down, and on those days we would […]
I recently did a review on some sunglasses over on GeekMom. To be completely honest, I was really wary about sunglasses purchased online. Now I’m convinced with quality of lens and frames, and my enhanced ability to avoid shopping centres (the 12th level of Hell).
I cracked a tooth. Eating toasted fruit loaf. And not some Han Solo in Carbonite level toasting. I’m talking lowest dial on the toaster. Warmed enough to melt the butter. With a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar. To be fair, I cracked the filling. Yes, I have fillings. I have really […]
Kings Comics save your parenting butt during the school holidays with their Kings Kids Corps on 10 Jan 2016
Last year, the Hour of Code Awakened with a Star Wars activity. The year before, kids were Frozen to their computers with coding and game development. In 2016, Disney has come to the party yet again; this time helping kids Wayfinding with code. Right now I should be typing up […]
