We get it, we’re mamas, and we miss being able to sit down with both hands free to read a book too. Thank goodness for podcasts and audio books, the ultimate hands free content! Here we’ve rounded up some of our current favourites – all podcasts we’d recommend to a friend (that’s you!).
Did you know that it is National Doughnut Week? No? Well now you do! A favourite with the team here at TMC (I mean check out @mamatowildings’ post below!), doughnuts have a special place in our hearts. We hear that they’re also a favourite in many of our workplaces. With all this being said, we’ve searched high and low to bring you the best doughnut recipes on the world wide web.
If you have been fortunate enough to add a conservatory to your home this year, the chances are that you had big ideas in mind. Now the conservatory is built and ready to use – your mind is blank! There is a lot of debate surrounding whether homeowners should add a conservatory to their homes, and those who consider it do so for plenty of reasons. Perhaps more space is needed? Perhaps you’re planning to sell and want to add a little value to your home? No matter the reason why you build it, there are plenty of ways to use it.
“How can I get a work colleague to stop trying to get me in trouble with the boss just because they don’t like me?”
One of our lovely TMC followers needs some advice on how to deal with an upsetting work situation.
What advice would you have for our follower that is stuck in a situation that is making her work place toxic.
It’s no secret that over here at TMC, we love to create, make and DIY. Whether we’re baking, making fairy potions, very hungry caterpillar recycled play or wooden peg princess…there’s a huge satisfaction when you look at a picture and figure out how to make it with what you have at hand. Whilst I worked for Disney, I worked on a few projects, including writing a ‘Craft Manual’ for Youth Activities. I have no idea if it is still being used at all (I heard from someone a year or so ago that it was still floating around The Lab on the Magic!), but I thought I would share one of my favourites.
“I’m a new mum really struggling to breastfeed. Every feed is filled with anxiety and both me and baby crying. How do I know it’s time to give up??”.

If one or more of your children have special educational needs, they may likely use a sensory room at their schools whenever they need some “time out” from their classroom activities.
We all know it can be hard to entertain the little ones on holidays. The pressure to make things ‘insta worthy’ can be huge. So the team here at That Mama Club put together this Easter bucket list of free/easy things you can do without much pre-planning.
Ever wanted to find Nemo? Maybe you have a kiddo’s (or maybe kid at heart?) party coming up and want to get everyone out of the house to do a scavenger hunt? Why not create you very own Disney DIY Nemo?
Oh, I’m sure we’ve all been there! Scrolling Insta and Etsy in the wee hours of the morning, drooling over the cutest baby photos complete with baby cappuccinos and a bathrobe. I know you know the photos that I’m talking about! And the props? As adorable as they are, are likely only to be used a few times that season before kiddo outgrows that cute AF dressing gown. That’s why, when I saw all the Easter content heading our way, I thought “I bet that I can make a baby bunny bonnet, just like the ones that they sell on Etsy, with stuff that I have right here in the house”. So, I did! And you definitely can too.
We’ve heard that the Easter bunny is on his way to a town near you – check out the below for some ideas on what to do these Easter Holidays!
For many people (including us), life is stressful! With society, work and family-related pressures, it can be very easy to become overwhelmed with everything that life has to throw at us.
Creativity is the lifeblood of our existence. It allows us to come up with new ideas, solve problems and express ourselves in ways that words cannot. Without creativity, we would be living mundane lives devoid of passion and happiness. But luckily, creativity is something that we can all tap into – no matter who we are or what we do. In this blog post, we will explore how being creative can completely change our lives for the better!
Have you ever stayed in a boutique hotel or eaten at a fancy restaurant and wished you could recreate the decor at home? Your house may not be a country pile with acres of land or an achingly cool urban hangout, but there’s no reason why you can’t add a luxe edge to your interiors. If you’re looking for inspiration for a mini home makeover, here are some tips that won’t break the bank.
As a new mum, I’ve taken great joy from using holidays and celebrations to theme activities. Does my little human really care? Not at all. But they love the change up in activities, and I love the creative prompt of holidays and celebrations for our playtime. In this post I’m going to round up some ideas for a St Patrick’s Day Sensory Treasure Basket. Something for your little one to explore!
