You know me and crafts… love it love it love it all! And when I am asked to review a craft book, I simply cannot say no…. but mind you, I only review the books on Red Ted Art that I like! And here is one of them: Witch Craft compiled by Margaret McGuire and [...]
Aaah, a lovely day at the Wetland Centre in Putney, London. We played with water. We walked. We saw baby ducks (two kinds!). We walked. We had some juice. We PLAYED!!!! And we PLAYED!!!! And we PLAYED! We explored. We climbed. We PLAYED! Lovely day! And I was complimented on Pip Squeak’s lovely Strawberry Bandana [...]
We *finally* got round to having our family portraits done.. it was lingering at the back of mind for ages and I just wasn’t getting around to it. Pip Squeak has gone through a massive growth spurt recently and it just reminded me of how quickly they are growing up and that I wanted to catch [...]
… sounds like the beginning of a bad joke, but in fact it is the a beautiful alliance! This week, MONKEY, has been brought to life. (Monkey: patiently waiting on his eyes and a hat) Monkey is here to look after me. Monkey is here to hold my hand when I speak at my mini [...]
What? I hear you shout?! THAT is Happiness?? Let me explain: When you are feeling peckish (or H-ungry), there is nothing better than a nice crumpet smothered in butter and with a nice cuppa… and whilst munching on said wonders, flicking through a gorgeous cook book to decide what to make for supper. Blissful 5minutes [...]
…oh my oh my oh my… what a wonderful invention indeed. To be honest, I was never really sure whether we “should get a Micro Scooter“, everyone has one and that kind of made me feel we shouldn’t. Out of principle. I can be like that. Instead we got Red Ted a wibble wobble bike [...]
Before I write ANYTHING and bore you with my rambling, the kids LOVE the Hama beads. They made them straight away the day we got them and then again were at it first thing the following morning. What can I say, save for HOORAY! Hello hello! A quick sneaky craft for you: Hama Beads! I [...]
This is a sponsored post, however, I only write what I truly believe in! I wanted to start this post with a video: With Spring upon us and Summer only around the corner, I am already thinking about a much deserved summer holiday and break (we didn’t go on holiday last year and this [...]
Well. Where do I begin. Build A Bear… a number of UK bloggers have already been to “visit” Build A Bear and I hadn’t really given it much thought until I realised we had one very local to us. Then I thought… well it is “vaguely” crafty, why not ask if we can go too? [...]
This is a sponsored post, but the sentiments of the post is what we do believe in! Well, we do love arts and crafts (can you guess) and when the kind people at IKEA asked whether they could send us some their arts and crafts materials, I wasn’t going to say no. I already use [...]
As you all know we are “avid” readers here at Red Ted HQ, well my two children, almost don’t get a choice, with the heaps of books that get piled on them. So whenever I see something “new” produced by an individual, I cannot help but get a copy… so we bought Jacqueline the Black [...]
So.. I had dinner to cook for the kids and I had a handful of craft sticks. So I gave these to the kids, a bunch of pens and some googly eyes, whilst I sorted their dinner. And we got.. these adorable Craft Sticks Bookmarks. They would be a FABULOUS little gift for Father’s Day [...]

And they can be whenever, so some crafty bloggers got together to talk Gifts for Dad that Kids can make!! Brilliant. There are of course the Father’s [...]
Quick Craft: Father’s Day Feet Bookmarks
We saw these super cute and easy footprint bookmarks over at The Seeds Network Blog. We used contact paper and wrote the children’s ages on the back. The ribbons are recycled! Father’s Day sorted (we made extra for the grandfather’s too). We love footprint crafts and have made plenty of thank you cards and even [...]
