Tip of the day

Never ask a child IF they need the loo... moodlum

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

Full of rather obvious and straight forward advice and ideas. To be brutal, there is nothing new here at all. However, sometimes it takes a book like this to spell out the obvious to help us see the light. I skim read this and then found myself picking it up now and again for reference. Helpful in a "oh of course" and "yeah I knew that!" sort of way.

If you found toddler taming useful for under fives then this is the book for five to twelve year olds, good common sense advice.
