Have a great weekend everyone! Here is an excellent collection of ideas from Kiwi Families for things to do with your children.

We just laugh when it rains at HoneyBees - with a pair of yellow gumboots and a red rain jacket we're ready for anything!  We're so lucky that part of our outdoor area is undercover so the kids can still get some fresh air when Auckland turns on the tap!

These balance bikes we have at HoneyBees are great for coordination and confidence before moving on to a big bike, and the boys absolutely love racing round the track on them! 

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning we will remember them.....

These super yummy carob balls are the perfect alternative to chocolate Easter eggs for the little ones this holiday season. No dairy, no gluten, no added sugar! The tofu keeps them a nice soft texture, while adding some protein too.

Pat the tofu dry with paper towels to remove excess water. Place into a bowl and mash with a fork. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix using your hands to evenly combine.
Form into small balls and roll in extra desiccated coconut. Transfer to a container in a single layer and refrigerate overnight. Keeps 4-5 days in the fridge. Makes approx 30 small balls.

Just one more reason at HoneyBees we make our own all natural wet wipes using almond oil....

At HoneyBees we love having such an amazing outdoor space in the middle of the busy city!

Sarah, Summer and baby Sky popped in to HoneyBees on Friday to collect their hamper, Sarah says she has never won anything before so we're glad we could be the first!! Well done guys, have fun discovering all the eco and organic products inside......  :-)

The children were very helpful today in picking a winner for our hamper competition! Congratulations to Sarah and Summer, we'll be in touch soon to organise collection!!  :-)
