Pink ice cube hearts - great for kids parties

By: on August 23, 2012|No Comments

Spotted this lovely idea on A Subtle Revelry today and loved it so much we just had to share. These perfectly sweet pink ice cube hearts are great for kids parties (or perhaps placed in an adult only cocktail!) The magic? As the ice cubes melt, the milk or *insert cocktail liqueur of your choice* turns pink also! They’re the easiest things to make and would certainly help encourage the kids to drink up!

Parents are tearing their hair out as the third piece of beautifully prepared chicken is hurled across the table. You’re pretty sure the best man is distraught that many of his jokes fell flat as ear piercing screams continued throughout his speech. If you’re inviting kids to your wedding, it’s important, no, integral, that you provide entertainment. Here’s how…

Easter games, fun and activities!

Mention Easter to most children and watch their eyes light up as they indulge in their very own chocolate fantasies. Others may recount stories told to them in school, while a handful will think of the trees and flowers bursting into life.

With the days getting longer – and hopefully a little warmer – it is the ideal time to turn our backs on the TV and computer games and head for the great outdoors. Here are a few Easter games to get you started and to help you stay in shape after all that chocolate – egg-cellent…

Easter baking with the family...

Well, they do say you should never work with animals or children. What they don’t tell you is that you probably shouldn’t bake with them either. Something I quickly found out when myself, my husband Mark and our two ‘adorable’ children Georgia and Henry embarked upon some Easter baking and decorating at the weekend…

Christmas is the most magical time of the year for children. From making the Christmas cake with mum, to decorating the tree with the most beautiful baubles with dad and of course the anticipation of Santa’s arrival on the rooftop – we all remember just how fabulous Christmas time with the family was as a child. So to show you just how much fun it is, my beautiful daughter (who insisted on wearing her princess outfit and had her face painted) and I thought we’d take some snaps and share them with you…

Well the Christmas countdown is officially upon us, and for those who have switched over the Coca Cola advert, refused to oooh and ahhh over the new John Lewis advert (only the sweetest thing we’ve ever seen) and generally been as Scrooge’esque as possible, it’s time to get festive!
