Life with pre-schoolers
Thoughts on life with a pre-schooler from some familiar faces. What a typical day’s like, what’s to love, the challenging stuff, and musings in hindsight, from those who’ve been there.
Blowing up balloons with air pressure
No need to huff and puff to blow balloons up; let an empty bottle do it for you!
Bending water with static electricity
Did you know you can bend water without touching it? Strange, but true!
Family mealtimes
It can be hard to find the time to eat together as a family but there are plenty of reasons why it’s great to gather around the table as often as possible. Your kids will tend to eat a wider variety of foods and have better table manners for starters!
Here Ben and Jude whip up a family favourite – pulled pork on homemade sliders, with kid-friendly coleslaw.
Garden to plate
Ben makes yummy tomato soup using fresh tomatoes from his garden, which he tops with (freshly-picked) green bean salad and a cottage cheese toasty. Fresh and tasty!
Meals without meat
Want to cook more meat-free meals but lack inspiration? Ben puts a vegetarian spin on a couple of family favourites – bolognese and lasagna.
Nutritious breakfasts
Breakfast really is the most important meal of the day. Ben’s choice for kick-starting his family’s day? Oats, in the form of muesli and porridge.
