We love Poopsie over here at Constant HQ (that sounds very important doesn't it?). The school Summer term finishes on 23 July 2020 and that will mean no more logging into our school app to check for work. At the moment, we are planning for a September return to school life and so we want to make sure they have a fun Summer Holiday that incorporates fun activities. This is great for all those slime lovers out there: #PoopsieTimeforSlime. VIEW the POST

Parenthood is hard. There is no parent out there that will say it’s easy because it takes so much from you. I'll start off by saying they don't just take, those children of yours, but when you spend your whole life being you, it’s hard to give up some of you to be mum and dad. It then ends up that you become only mum and dad for a while, forgetting that before your cherubs came along, you were husband and wife. You had fun and romance and a lot of love for eachother, and while that love hasn't changed, you certainly do things differently now. You need to think about how you can keep the relationship alive while you navigate feeds, nappies and endless sleepless nights. VIEW the POST

Couponing has become a personal challenge with shoppers over the years, and it is hardly a shock, people love to save money. Even the smallest amount counts as a win, and customers feel like they are getting value. It might be surprising to learn that couponing has been around since the 1880s! Coca Cola was, in fact, the first brand to offer coupons in 1887, and coupons have been growing in popularity amongst brands and customers alike ever since! VIEW the POST

We love playing fun games as a family, albeit we have a little man that doesn't like to lose, we have been trying new games and old games together. Like Scrabble, something Daddy and I used to play when we were younger. I remember having game afternoons, on a Sunday, with my siblings and Mum growing up. We liked Mouse Trap! Great game. Some of these games were meant to be travelling with us to Dubai. I stocked up on these little games as they are the perfect size to have in a backpack. I knew we would have long waits at the airport, the plane journey was long and I thought they would be fun to play with our friends when we got to Dubai. As we didn’t go, they actually still came in very handy as we have been playing them throughout lockdown. They are great family fun ...

Having a dog is like having an extra, four-legged member of the family. I wouldn't have it any other way. They bring their own personality and love into your home and are your constant companions through life. We always want to keep our dog happy and healthy. They also, however, bring their own set of needs as well. Every good dog owner wants to meet those needs as well as do whatever they can to promote the physical and mental wellness of their pet.

If flowers make you happy and you love to share the joy that they bring with others, then being a professional florist may be a fulfilling career option for you.

Floristry is a well-paying and a highly satisfying job but demands creativity, speed, hard work and good communication skills. If you know you have the talent and enthusiasm to work with flowers, read on to know how you can become a professional florist.  VIEW the POST
