geekmummy.tv talks maternal instinct

October 13, 2011

There often seems to be a strong message coming from the press that Mums are naturally better parents than Dads. So the team at BritMums asked us, and some of their other video bloggers, to talk about this and share our opinions. This is definitely a subject that the geekdaddy has some strong opinions about, [...]

September 16, 2011

geekmummy.tv – our experiences of bullying

September 15, 2011

When the geekdaddy and I heard that BritMums were putting together a featured video topic on bullying, we looked at each other and said “well, there’s something we can’t weigh in on, as we have no experience of that yet”. Yet within days we were eating our words, as the geekdaughter had a bad experience [...]

geekmummy.tv makes ice cream

July 18, 2011

We dug out our ice cream making machine the other day, and the geekdaddy got a sudden urge to make strawberry ice cream. It really is very easy to make your own ice cream, so we thought we would record his efforts and share them. He had some help from the geekdaughter, and even the [...]

geekmummy.tv goes to CyberMummy

July 8, 2011

Almost two weeks ago I attended the CyberMummy11 event in London. It was an amazing event, in many ways. I’ve been reading everyone’s reports of the day, and the word “overwhelming” has come up time and time again. And unsurprisingly, because so much of it was overwhelming. Mostly in a good way, I hasten to [...]

June 18, 2011

We were asked by the team at BritMums to talk on the topic of encouraging kids into a showbiz career. With reports of the so called pageant dads recently, this is in people’s minds, and so they wanted to canvass some opinions. Would we be in favour, against, or somewhere in the middle?

Time to start using the stairgate

June 7, 2011

After showing no interest at all in the stairs up until now, I was rather surprised to find the geekson halfway up them the other day! I was at work today, and the geekdaddy called to tell me that I was a bad mother because I hadn’t closed the stairgate. Apparently he’d been playing with [...]
