April School Holiday Fun!

At From The Woods With Love we are at the start of our first official school holiday break!

With our oldest bambino completing his first term of Reception – it has been a huge adjustment for all of us. And not to mention we have missed him like crazy. Now the big question – how to fill these glorious 2 weeks with Mr 5 back by our side! Yes he needs some rest as he has finished the term exhausted….. but we also need some fun!

So here is our SA relevant list…..

Morialta Nature Playground, Stradbroke Road, Woodforde

Belair Adventure Playground, Belair National Park, Belair

The Tree Climb, Children’s Adventure Course, Greenhill Road, Adelaide (Children must be over 100cm in height)

Beach time, we love it regardless of the weather!

Baking Anzac cookies (And most probably pancakes too!)

Easter craft

If we tick the rest off….. tidy up the paddock, collect sticks and make a nature teepee!

How will you be filling your school holidays?

Mum life and my wooden adventure!

From the Woods with Love.

White Teepee

I love being a mum! I am a mumma to two of the most amazing little humans. They are crazy, funny, adventurous, creative, affectionate and loud!! Mum life is heaven and I wouldn’t change a thing….. except all the plastic toys in our home.

When I was a child we played with beautiful, hand made toys. We didn’t have a playroom filled with them, but the toys we had were great quality. I am passionate about surrounding my children with toys that will aid their development, beautifully made, safe for our health and the health of our planet, long lasting (and I mean really tough!!) and aesthetically gorgeous.

I want my children to have toys that last so well they can proudly give to their own children.

This hunt has led me to WOOD! Wooden toys encourage creativity and imagination. They have less chemicals than plastic and are recyclable! A quality wooden toy has longevity, can outlast a generation of tiny fingers and become a family heirloom.

I adore gift giving. Many people will groan at the thought. I love to select gifts that are beautiful, hand made, timeless and high quality. There is joy in selecting a gift that a child and mother will both love, and that will be different from all their other gifts. Pre Christmas and birthdays are my most favourite months of mum life, when I am busy selecting the gifts for my family and friends! THE BEST!!

This passion has led me to create From The Woods With Love. A carefully selected collection of beautiful and timeless wooden toys, and homewares for children.

I invite your to join me on this journey to provide the best play and learning environment for our little ones.
