Cool Fun at Medibank Icehouse + Giveaway

January 11 2015 By melbournemamma 32 Comments

We recently headed to Medibank Icehouse at Docklands to check out their Under 8’s Ice FUN sessions.

 

I haven’t skated since the 80s and my kids have never done it before, so we were all excited and a little nervous (or maybe that was just me). …

Review: LeapFrog LeapTV

December 16 2014 By melbournemamma 3 Comments

Have you seen or heard about LeapTV – a new educational, active video gaming system from LeapFrog, built just for kids aged 3-8 years?

 

My kids have seen it advertised on TV and were putting it on the Christmas list, but luckily for them (& Santa), it arrived a little early.

I went into this book knowing very little about th I went into this book knowing very little about the Vietnam War, and it was a real eye-opener. 

Kristin Hannah has an incredible gift for bringing history to life, and The Women is no exception. This emotional and powerful story follows the experiences of women who served during the war - stories that are often overlooked - and it left a lasting impact on me. I love historical fiction, and Kristin is truly a master storyteller. 
 
My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“Women can be heroes, too’. When twenty-year-old nursing student, Frances “Frankie” McGrath, hears these unexpected words, it is a revelation. Raised on California’s idyllic Coronado Island and sheltered by her conservative parents, she has always prided herself on doing the right thing, being a good girl. But in 1965 the world is changing, and she suddenly imagines a different path for her life. When her brother ships out to serve in Vietnam, she impulsively joins the Army Nurses Corps and follows his path.

As green and inexperienced as the young men sent to Vietnam to fight, Frankie is overwhelmed by the chaos and destruction of war, as well as the unexpected trauma of coming home to a changed America. Frankie will also discover the true value of female friendship and the heartbreak that love can cause.”

Have you read this or any of Kristin’s other books?

After 10 weeks out with a pelvic fracture, it was After 10 weeks out with a pelvic fracture, it was great to see my boy back on the court last night doing what he loves. Your dedication to rehab and the patience you’ve shown have truly paid off. I’m so proud of you - 16 pts and 13 reb (+ a blood nose 🤧🩸) is an incredible return! Can’t wait to see what the rest of the season brings 💪🏻🖤❤️🏀
