Lets get creative


I have a daughter who loves creative projects. From gluing to cooking to drawing to crafting to building - give her a creative task and she will generally embrace it with 100 % passion and enthusiasm she seems to have for everything in life. God love her. Sometimes, as working mother, I can run out of ideas of what we can do - especially on those long, wet, rainy days. I am not a naturally crafty person, as much as I would love to be . I try my hardest to come up with ideas involving toilet rolls, ice cream buckets and other household items but they never seem to quite work and Miss Chatterbox just ends up looking at me with eyes that say "Oh MUM, what on earth are we doing".
One of my best friends introduced me to Seeding, a gorgeous New Zealand company who creates different kits designed to encourage a child's creativity. From create your own tutu to create your own wooden puzzle to design your own birds house to paint your own dolls house - these beautiful yet simple kits allow curious minds to explore and create. Fantastic. A far more useful gift than a plastic toy which will get used for 5 mins and then sit at the bottom of the toy box gathering dust.
