So every year, at this time of year, we make a Gingerbread House. Being a Swede – half – I love a bit of Flat Pack action. So, with some great Gingerbread House Flat Packs out there to buy – you can make something look pretty impressive – jealousmaking for sure, that is actually easy to do.
You will need:
Summer holiday – tick. Back to school – tick. Halloween – tick. Where has this year gone? And all that’s happening as it speeds by, is that I am ageing. Argh. It’s frightening. I need a treat to make myself feel better. And given my need for sweet, plus Bonfire Night on the horizon this weekend, I have the perfect recipe and tutorial. Chocolate dipped apples – or as I prefer to call them Apple Pops. Let’s get involved.

One of my favorite things to tell people is ‘did you know that Oreos are vegan!?’ I am old enough to know that vegan does not immediately equal healthy but… somehow it does make me feel better after nibbling my way through half a pack while reading a magazine. Almost like they are just fruit, or better, a vegetable. But I digress. Where was I? Hmmmm, vegan, no animals, blood – OH YES – Halloween!
By using these vegan yums we have created some hardcore Halloween delights just for you. Lookey here at our Oreo Mummies.

But to those of you who still believe…wrap your manicured mitts around these…Mini Love Hearts Cheesecakes. Created by the brilliant Lily’s Sweet Factory – for you, my real Valentine’s.
It’s now spitting distance until the kids break up. And with all the excitement around the build up to Xmas comes the inevitable moaning – I’m BORRRRRRED, can I play MINECRAFT, can I watch TELLAYY – or maybe that’s just my kids? Either way – it would be good to have some fun activities that do not involve cursed Screen Time! So here is one of my favourite Christmassy ideas from pal of the blog Babble Dabble Do – Mini Winter Terrariums.
This is an amazing blog where you will find ideas for art, design, science, and many other projects for kids. Ana the owner believes in the power of art, design, science, and other problem solving projects as a way to engage young imaginations. I believe in anything that gets my kids fingers away from keyboards or remote controls!
