the simple things

I am loving having some quality time with the boys .
I am loving watching the boys bonding and playing together
I am loving having the return of my Iphone
I am loving hear the boys laughter
I am loving the return of Instagram to catch those fleeting moments.
I am loving the beautiful sunshine
I am loving being a mum .

Easter for the babies

I couldn't resist this little mood board Easter for babies . Who says a baby cannot enjoy Easter . It is probably more for the parents but cute all the same . Our Unisex baby rabbit handrattles make the prefect Easter gift for a little baby ( you cannot give a baby chocolate ) Although my almost 3 year old last year fed our almost 3 month old chocolate - which ended in a happy baby and panicked parents . Enjoy the mood board for your babies first Easter .

La de dah kids handrattles

I know it sounds corny but I am super proud at how far we have come in a year and how little by little our range is growing . I am bursting at the seams with new ideas and if there was a endless supply of funds I would produce them all but it is babysteps . Which brings me to this post our handrattle range has grown from just two designs to the range you see today . We now have a handrattle to suit every baby , boy , girl and even unisex.

Our handrattles make a great gift - or a great add on gift for a new born baby , They are durable and produced from 100% cotton - so easy to keep clean - cold hand wash or in a dedicates bag and on a wool cycle in a washing machine . So what rattle is your favourite would love to hear your feedback . Don't forget we sell them on line at www.ladedahkids.com.au or check out our stockists page for your nearest stockist .

Our Happy Easter Bunnies

Wow when did April happen and now Easter . The year is flying by in record time that fast forward button has not yet been paused since Christmas . I am looking forward to Easter and some country air .

Port Elizabeth and surrounds

We Visited :
Port elizabeth : waterfront great place to take a walk with the kids .

Addo Elephant park
The last leg of our Journey was to catch up with family and take the kids on Safari . As little O is only one in a lot of the parks they will not let kids under 3 in the open top vehicles . So we headed to a park that you could self drive . It was great and the kids loved it . We missed out on seeing a Lion but in our hire car I was happy to not come up against a Lion .

We stayed :
Casa mia - health spa great place for the parents to take turns and have a massage whilst the kids play in the plunge pool . Great service and a beautiful little place out of the main tourist spots .

Plettenberg bay

This was a few days of sight seeing and a family get together . This place holds special importance as it is Mr T's home town or where he grew up . It was great to show the boys the sights and look around the area . It has been 8 years since I have been back and it is amazing how much a small town can change in this short time .

we stayed :

Formosa bay hotel plettenberg bay - Fantastic place to stay with the kids a play park , pool , mini golf , trampolines , tennis courts . I definitely recommend this place to anyone with kids - very impressed.


we ate :
look out deck ( plettenberg bay ). This place is a must visit . I love it . The place is nestled down on the watefront and views to dye for you may even see some Dolphins . The food is great and the sunsets are amazing a place not to be missed .

Moby dicks another great place to enjoy the sundown over a few cocktails and nibbles surprisingly the kids loved this place .

we visited :
Knysna heads - A beautiful place where two sea cliffs guard the entrance to the lagoon from the surging ocean . There are some great little restaurants to eat at here with amazing views .The Rock pools are well worth exploring with two little ones we had so much fun .

Knysna waterfront - Great relaxation spot for s spot of shopping , good views and great ice cream for those hot days - we loved it and it really felt like we where on a summer holiday .

Monkeyland - this is s must with little kids . It is no zoo you get to do a tour in like a forest and the monkey's roam free in the natural habitat . Monkey's swing above your heads and run around you- our boys loved it . It is no secret here at La de dah kids one our most popular lines is our monkey's so I feel some inspiration for some new monkey 's .It felt like a real adventure and Seb loved the swing bridge. Our one year old could not stop giggling at the monkeys this place was a real highlight with the kids and with the adults .

Storms River - we stopped off quickly here . Unfortunately it was 40 degrees the day we planned to visit and the kids where tired but a deinate must visit .
