Greetings!
We hope you are enjoying the summer holidays and managing to make the most of the short bursts of sunny weather. For our Scottish readers, going back to school is just around the corner. In England, it really isn't that long away! If you haven't already ordered your Organised Mum calendar and / or diary for the start of the new term, why not put that at the top of your Back to School checklist? We've got lots of goodies that will hep you to keep organised in the coming school year - click here to go to our website and take a look. |
Back to School Checklist
Yes, it's that time of year, when mums all over the country start the
task of sewing in umpteen name tags and assembling all that new school
uniform. We know that getting the little ones suited and booted to go
back to school can be a time consuming and costly exercise, so we
thought you'd appreciate another look at our "Getting Organised for the
New School Term" article. As well as helpful information, it includes
a useful checklist that you can download, with space for the children's
clothes and shoe sizes for when you go shopping. Click here to go to
the blog to read the article in full and download the checklist

Stressed out Mums and Manic Dads
If you feel you run around like a headless chicken all day trying frantically to fit everything in and then crawl into bed every night wondering where the day went, then this article is for you. In it, Sue Atkins gives us some invaluable advice as to how to stop thinking you can do it all and to give yourself a break. Sue believes that the secret to a less stressful life is 'balance' and to recognise that time is not your enemy but your most valuable resource. We all have 24 hours in a day, but it's about how we manage that time and our expectations of ourselves. So if you'd like some simple steps to help you to regain control of your life, click here to read the article in full.

The products have received lots of positive feedback, especially the new Little Bird diaries and the clever portable address books in the Life Books. Click here to see more. Our household is definitely feeling the effects of all this rainy weather with probably a little bit too much tv watching. Here's hoping the remaining weeks off will get a little sunnier for all of us.
