Colourful. Day 5 of @lotus_petal_family_support and @butterflymum83 photo challenge to raise awareness of perinatal mental health. This mornings photo signifies us relaxing at home playing with his playdough on a Sunday morning. Sunday mornings were always a really hard time when he was a baby. Before he was born I loved my Sunday morning lie ins and a bit of peace and quiet! Now ‘relaxing’ Sunday mornings are completely different but always good fun and colourful! #pmhphoto2017

Starting off some drawing and photos for my new project #mindfulartmama basically getting out and about, noticing and being creative. This week I have been walking along the #rivermersey and #salewaterpark and looking at the patterns and marks the water makes. The aim is to make an inspirational video for others to use but with a 10 week old this is as good as it gets! #doodlesofinstagram #livinglines17 #mindfulness #selfcare #newbornbaby #selfcare #pndchat (at Sale Water Park)

Started doing some work on a slightly different direction of #creativity and #selfcare for #newmums . Managed 5 minutes at softplay before baby woke up! (at Antz in your Pantz)

Introducing Orlagh Rose born at home on Saturday weighing 7.4. She is such a chilled out baby and her big bro is smitten! Going to be taking a bit of time out but watch this space for our Sensory adventures once she is doing more than eating and sleeping! #newbabygirl

Using lots of different balls in different sizes we explored the idea of going down the rabbit hole and how Alice changed in size⠀ #sensoryplay #sensoryroom #sensoryroom #sensorykid #sensoryfun #immersiveplay #learningthroughplay #sensoryart #sensorytoys #creativeplay #earlylearning #playmatters #kidsart #artforkids #aliceinwonderland ⠀ Sensory Play – Alice in Wonderland Themed Sensory Room

The light box can help to cheer a child up. it is bright and fun, there are different settings on this lightbox to change the colour or sequence of colours. I have added coloured card and sensory bags to the top to make the talking flowers from Alice in Wonderland. Eyes and faces help us to relate more to something and even a circle with a smiley face can help us to feel happier.⠀ #sensoryplay #sensoryroom #sensoryroom #sensorykid #sensoryfun #immersiveplay #learningthroughplay #sensoryart #sensorytoys #creativeplay #earlylearning #playmatters #kidsart #artforkids ⠀ Sensory Play – Alice in Wonderland Themed Sensory Room

The Queens Roses: all of the roses come off the rose bushes, they are made from different materials to give different textures and can open up conversations about colour, texture and planting & growing, they also offer the child a bit of autonomy and independent in being able to choose how they want the rose bush to look. For older children it is also a great opening into talking about unrealistic requests (from the queen) to paint the roses.⠀ #sensoryplay #sensoryroom #sensoryroom #sensorykid #sensoryfun #immersiveplay #learningthroughplay #sensoryart #sensorytoys #creativeplay #earlylearning #playmatters #kidsart #artforkids ⠀ Sensory Play – Alice in Wonderland Themed Sensory Room

The bricks in the background can be used to build the queens castle. This is a good activity for your childs motor skills and also to learn how to balance and build things. The cards offer a sorting activity or various card games, which can then be used as an opportunity to share and take turns.⠀ #sensoryplay #sensoryroom #sensoryroom #sensorykid #sensoryfun #immersiveplay #learningthroughplay #sensoryart #sensorytoys #creativeplay #earlylearning #playmatters #kidsart #artforkids ⠀ Sensory Play – Alice in Wonderland Themed Sensory Room

The Mad Hatters hats are available to decorate with different brightly coloured textures, feathers, sequins and playing cards. this is a good fun activity and the dress up element is a great way to help your child begin to understand their sense of self. Looking at themselves in the mirrors with the different hats on helps to develop self confidence and is also great fun. #sensoryplay #sensoryroom #sensoryroom #sensorykid #sensoryfun #immersiveplay #learningthroughplay #sensoryart #sensorytoys #creativeplay #earlylearning #playmatters #kidsart #artforkids ⠀ Sensory Play – Alice in Wonderland Themed Sensory Room http://buff.ly/2rAfttR

A Messy – Mad Hatters Tea Party. Pouring, making play dough cakes and exploring many textures is a firm favourite with boys and girls of different ages. #sensoryplay #sensoryroom #sensoryroom #sensorykid #sensoryfun #immersiveplay #learningthroughplay #sensoryart #sensorytoys #creativeplay #earlylearning #playmatters Sensory Play – Alice in Wonderland Themed Sensory Room http://buff.ly/2qFH4cZ

The Cheshire Cat is in its own UV area with a mixture of florescent calm down jars and sensory bags. These can be a good way to help children to calm, they are nice to look at and relaxing to manipulate in their hands. The furry blanket is good for children who want an extra bit of comfort to cuddle up in too. #aliceinwonderland #cheshirecat #neon #sensoryplay #sensoryroom #sensoryroom #sensorykid #sensoryfun #immersiveplay #learningthroughplay #sensoryart #sensorytoys #creativeplay #earlylearning #playmatters #kidsart #artforkids

Working on some new creations for my etsy store. Kind of somewhere between affirmation cards and mantras. Also working on them for me for when baby comes as reminders for a little bit of self care! #affirmations #selfcare #newmums #pndchat #maternalmentalhealth #worldmentalhealthawarenessweek #newartwork #artcard #alteredplayingcard #meditation #mindfulness #mentalhealth #breathe
