Hi *|FNAME|*!

Free stuff first of all! Enter our comp to win a copy of the brand new junior fiction book "Dunger".

It’s getting close to the silly season again – we have Christmas presents your children will love that you can make yourself for a fraction of the cost (and shhhh they’re educational too)! Try your hand at making your own magnetic blackboard and magnets out of your child’s favourite characters – they’re easy to do!

Making baby puree can be a time commitment. The baby-led weaning movement is gaining popularity amongst parents – learn more about what it is and what doctors have to say about it.

Drowning is the leading cause of accidental death in Aussie kids – learn how to keep them safe and have successful swimming lessons.

We’d love to hear from you – you can contribute to the website or send feedback on what you’d like to see on Parenthub.

Happy parenting!
