As we set for preparing for the exit from this pandemic (with more people getting vaccinated), I thought of taking some time out to pause for a moment and assess where our parenting is at. After all, this pandemic did change a lot in our lives. And certainly, there has been some impact on our […]
“I don’t even know what to do. Earlier, I had time after sending kids off, where I napped or watched television. But now, my whole routine is disrupted. I feel like I’m all over the place and nowhere at the same time. We just don’t know when this situation is going to end, if it […]
We have all grown up hearing some very cliched yet classic dialogues from our moms, but one that has always been etched in my mind is her telling me “you’ll understand once you become a mom!“. And to this, I always replied coyly “o ho, mumma!!!“. I feel silly thinking about things I used to […]
You know what’s worse than handling a sick baby….well, that’s being sick yourself! And things turn a bit uglier when you are suspected of being COVID positive.

Well, the idea behind this fireless cooking workshop was to help children understand different senses and their role in cooking. I wanted to come up with something easy […]
Mother’s Day is just around the corner and gift ideas have been just hitting your screen as well as shop shelves! This certainly is the time of that mad sprint to get moms the best gift we can think of. But let’s be real here for a second. Do we really need or want a […]
So last week kept us busy with a few birthday parties to be attended and we were over stressed with the biggest dilemma in this world- what to gift?? Isn’t that just too difficult to decide, especially when kids nowadays have almost everything! So after lots of discussions and brain storming we thought of finding […]
The holiday season is here mommies! And if you are a mom like me, you would resonate with my thoughts every single day…….how to keep the kids engaged??? Well, having gone through several summer camps and activity workshops, we thought of taking a little break and engaging kids in some more practical and relevant […]
