Snap Ships Build to Battle is the latest name in building systems and we got the chance to test it out and share our views…When I say we, I mean my eight-year-old who played with it and is here to give the pros and cons of this versatile building system.

We hosted a dress-up movie night for Halloween and I thought I’d share some tips as this makes for a cool birthday party theme as well.

This one is for the fans of uniquely Capetonian musical productions featuring Cape Minstrels & Malay Choirs, THE JIVE CULTURE SHOCK, returns for yet another season of dancing and performances, online.

Season one of this uniquely popular production introduced South African audiences to the greater talents of the various Cape Minstrels & Malay Choirs, as this concept was born under the Covid-19 lockdown regulations in 2020.

I attended a cacao ceremony and here is what I learnt

The following things aren’t necessarily what everyone walked away with. Everyone has a different experience at these things but for me, this stood out.

I have some healthy snack ideas for you guys…because low cal doesn’t have to be dry Provita and lemon water.

I mean I like Provita (with Marmite, yum) and I won’t say no to a slice of lemon in my water but, we need diversity…

Why would I share a list of kid-friendly Halloween movies? well mainly because when it comes to Halloween themed movies I’m a wimp. Scary movies are not my thing. (Sneaking into the TV room to watch Freddy Kruger was one of my dumbest childhood moves). I want to start a Halloween movie tradition with the boys and figured this calls for “Halloween movies” minus the scare factor.

I’m not big on Halloween, I’ve shared some treat and snack DIYS in the past, but we don’t make a big deal out of it. However the boys want to celebrate, so I thought, why not just do snacks, low key costumes and when it gets dark use the projector to play a Halloween movie on the side of the house – it could become our little tradition.
