The Boy Who Grew Flowers

Accepting and Celebrating Diversity!
24 Jun 2009

This MUST be my favourite Barefoot Book. It's a lovely story which really illustrates that everyone is different and that these differences must be accepted and even celebrated. I love that the title can be ambiguous and this adds to the delight when the reader discovers what the title means!! (I promise I won't spoil the surprise). Just read it!

Yoga Pretzels

Kids (and adults) Just Love YOGA!
24 Jun 2009

These cards can be used as the companion to My Daddy is a Pretzel, or can be used on their own. My two boys love these cards! They love to get their hands on a card, examine it carefully and then get in the middle of the floor and try the position, no matter whether they are at home, in a busy fair or at school or nursery. I have introduced these cards into local schools and nurseries and have been informed that they have been an unqualified HIT! The instructions and pictures are clear and they are organised into sensible categories. By the way - I love doing them too!
