What’s better than escaping the house and getting out in nature with your kiddies? Playing outdoors and in nature is more than just fun for our kids..

We spoke to Hanan Saleh, the Director of The Food Expert, to help us overcome these ‘fussy eater’ issues and help shift the whole household’s attitude to eating into a more positive one.

We spoke to a few local mums (who have nailed the room sharing thing) and asked them to give us the low down on what having a sibling as a roommate means for your child, and how you can make sharing a bedroom a great experience for everyone.

I walked into my kid’s playroom on Boxing day and surveyed the scene. Toys occupied every available space – a play kitchen, riding toys, stuffed animals, arts and crafts, balls, bats, puzzles spread from one side of the room to the other and colourful containers full of bits and pieces (AKA crap). With no cupboards in the room, playthings were piled against walls, overflowing shelves, and crammed in every nook and cranny.
