  • What happens when you ask your kids, what would you do if you could be invisible for the day?

    So the pandemic happened, which meant that we were in family lockdown 24/7. To start with it was really frustrating. Trying to do the mummy juggle with what felt like watermelons. But also the most amazing thing started to happen. I actually started to get to know my kids a lot better. One thing that became really obvious was how much they like to talk. I mean honestly, I thought I talked non stop but my kids seem to have constant verbal diarrhoea. So I thought it would be amusing to hear what they had to say mixed with my serious take on life.

    So here it is. This is what my kids have to say about being invisible for the day. And believe me when I tell you I haven’t edited this.

    This series is all about me and my thoughts. The topic of conversation is how my childhood has influenced my parenting. We're lucky that there is lots of information out there to help.

About What the Mum!

From the publisher's feed

Being a mum is hard. It doesn't come with a manual. Just because we're mum it doesn't mean we have all the answers. We are doing the best we can with what we know, and at times yes we are just making it up.
