What to do this weekend...Mothers Day weekend

Hi everyone,

Last week in my post I think I had lost the ability to count and said my top 10 places only listing 6!!! Hmmmmm, perhaps need to sit with my little one and learn to count again. I'm not sure what the weather is meant to be doing this weekend, but hopefully we see a little bit of sunshine. I've come up with a couple of things to do and also some rainy day suggestions for this weekend if we land up being kept indoors all weekend. Of course its Mothers Day, so moms enjoy your day and kids and dads, spoil the most special lady in your lives!!!!!! I always feel so bad saying I don't want anything, so decided to change my mind and ask for something this year - I've been reading books by Stieg Larsson, they are absolutely fantastic, and am now ready for the third book. I think I'll be allocating Dad this weekend to do all the work and I'll kick back with my new book...hmmmmm!

Ok so what to do this weekend...

1. Every Saturday there is a market at Willowbridge - the Slow Foodmarket, which is just wonderful. It's from 9am to 3pm - but beware money spending alert! Go with a full purse! In the centre there are wonderful places to have coffee and lunch as well.

2. Tomorrow is the Annual 'Mommy and Me Walk'. This is for such a good cause - the St Joseph's Home for chronically ill children. It's hosted by Heart 104.9 FM and Toys R Us and takes place at Canal Walk. Visit www.canalwalk.co.za for further information and support this great cause. Pre-registration is today, so get moving!

3. The Scratch Patch at V&A - search for gemstones. Great outing. Check out www.scratchpatch.co.za for further information. Also in Simonstown.

4. Childrens Theatre at Delvera Wine Farm - Stellenbosch. Every Sunday from 11am children get taken on a magical fairytale ride! This Sunday is Red Riding Hood and the Wolf. Tickets for kiddies are R40. Loads for the whole family to do at the wine farm. As its Mothers Day please check availability 021 884 4352.

5. Go Karting - let the kids go wild either at Canal Walk or Grand West.

6. Ice Skating at Grand West with a beginners rink!

7. Ride the Blue Train at Mouille Point and if you're up for it play a game of Putt Putt.

8. If you want to go out for a bite to eat, then check out www.eatingoutwithkids.co.za which has reviews on places to go eat.

That about sums up my ideas for going out this weekend. I'll post my game ideas a bit later as well.

Have a great Mothers Day moms and have a fantastic weekend.
