Messy Eater

Here, in one simple photo, is the answer to the question, "Why should you not turn your back on a young child eating a bowl of cereal?":

Oh no!

I love the look of innocence on her face, as if to say, "No Daddy, I have no idea who spilt that milk."

Lesson learned; don't turn your back, or - better still - glue the bowl to the table.

Bimbadaboum!

Bimbadaboum - The 100% Family Festival

Earlier this year, whilst searching for activities to do with Lydia, Chris came across something called the "Bimbadaboum Festival". This is basically an event put on specifically for young children, with shows and activities to keep them interested. So, Chris booked us some tickets for the festival on Saturday 18th August. Under-2s get in free, so we only had to pay for 2 tickets (costing 66.- CHF).

I hadn't really read much into the event prior to going there, just the basic information shown on their website (www.bimbadaboum.ch), so didn't have any huge expectations. I knew that this was the 5th year of the festival and that there would be children's entertainers and some stuff for the kids to do, like little workshops for various crafts. In the end, I was pleasantly surprised by what we found there.
