Hi! I’m Mandy! I’m a full time Mum and parent blogger based in Tunbridge Wells. My muse is my two little diva’s Bella whose 4 years old & Flo whose two years old. Mamadoitblog is a daily blog covering a wide, range of topics; from parents must-haves, honest parenting advice, product reviews, days out, diy pre-school activities, book reviews, children’s recipes and loads more.
My blog & Instagram feed is relatable, honest, fun and most importantly it’s engaging. I work hard to produce creative content for the brands I work with and I always take clear & uncluttered, high quality pictures. I always strive to develop a good working, continual relationship with brands and I have the ability to produce high-grade content with a quick turnaround.
If you want to start teaching your little ones how to recognise letters and phonics, check out my top five activities: Reading Eggs not only teaches children phonics, it helps to kickstart their journey to start reading and writing, plus there are lots of fun, problem solving activities, science experiments, songs and lots of fun, educational videos. I also love the fact that the girls are learning whilst having screen time, check out their website https://readingeggs.co.uk Letterland has hands down been one of the best phonics learning tools that we have used so far. Bella was sent a bunch of Letterland goodies including Letterland ABC books, which teaches children phonics and their alphabet by turning each letter into a character including Annie Apple, Clever Cat and Golden Girl.
With the help of Mo, your children are encouraged to make the shape of letters on their Osmo mat, whist copying the letters they see on the screen. This activity has been brilliant for Bella because she’s always scared of getting things wrong and Osmo Little Genius Sticks and Rings encourages her to step outside her comfort zone. One of the costume pieces has a guitar, so if you placed that on your character on the Osmo mat and then tap the guitar when it’s flashing on the screen, your character starts to play the guitar and wakes up the bear. You can buy a Little Genius Starter Kit (aimed at 3-5 year olds) for just £79 and this includes; Osmo Base, Little Genius Sticks & Rings, Little Genius Costume Pieces , plus 4 game apps including ABCs, Squiggle Magic, Costume Party and Stories.
Roll the dice and complete the question and challenge cards and the first person to get to the finish line wins, check out their website https://giantboardgame.com and don’t forget to use code MAMA to get a 15% discount. The girls recently designed their own Squeezy stars using Baker Ross Neon Brights Deco Pens and they had great fun. They not only help to teach your child their alphabet, phonics and words, they also inspire little girls to dream big. For example A is for Architect and E is for Engineer, check out their website I’ve realised that I’ve never actually fully taught Bella the days of the week.
From flash cards to numbers, colours and shapes, check out https://www.littleboolearning.com for lots of learning through play activities. The girls request to watch Trolls at least three time’s a day, so I recently got this Trolls World Tour Glow in The Dark Crystal Creations from The Works https://www.theworks.co.uk/p/activity-toys/ and it was really easy to use. Prices start from £5 for a small surprise box and an extra large surprise box costs £20. I can honestly say that this is one of the best activity boxes I have tried, the toys and crafts are of a high quality, there was a great variety and I’ll definitely buy another box in the future.
