Schools out + Christmas madness = Conscious Kids Programmes

Rita from Conscious Kids New Zealand

Kia ora everyone!

Already panicking about what to do with the kids these holidays?
We can help with that! 🤗

When the average full-time working parent gets 9 weeks less of holidays than kids, managing childcare during school holidays can be challenging to say the least. That’s when our programme at Little Shoal Bay comes in handy.

We offer 100% Nature holiday programmes all around Tamaki Makurau, where kids get the opportunity and freedom to take ownership of their play outside all day long! To make things even better, this year we’ll be running programmes from December all the way through to February when school starts.

Located in the beautiful Little Shoal Bay Reserve we are surrounded by fantastic nature, the coastline, massive fields and bush area to play in, the creek and Le Roys Bush which is filled with nature walks. Perfectly located on the North Shore it is super close to the highway and on the way for your city commutes.

Tickets won’t last, GET YOURS TODAY!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!

Home made bread problem

Karen from Totara Vale

Is anyone else having trouble with bread dough not rising properly?

I used to be able to turn out a decent loaf but now the bread is half the height - if that - and very dense.

I've used 4 different brands of yeast including the type bakers use to no avail. I've changed the flour to the best available and I've followed the recipe meticulously.

It can only be the flour?

What do you think?
