  1. Time to get a wiggle on ...

    by , 17-05-2012 at 20:18 (The Official Bub Hub Blog!)

    So three of the four original Wiggles will be hanging up their famous scivvies after 21 years!

    For a while there - when Sam was replaced and Wigglegate brough the world to its knees - I was scared that they would keep on wiggling into their twilight years. Greg would need his Big Red Car licence renewed annually and Jeff would be getting harder and harder to rouse from his naps.

    But that won't happen now that Jeff, Murray and Greg have announced they will be retiring.

  2. Top baby names and other current trends ...

    If you're like me, then you like colourful easy-to-understand statistics. And pie-charts. And pie ... Mmm... pie ...

    Now, where was I? Oh yeah, statistics.

    My favourite statistics are those that a) prove me right and/or b) give me a glimpse of what is happening in the world.

    That's why I like this Mother And Babies Australia infograph from McCrindle Research. It is colourful AND informative! Like Dr Karl Kruszelnicki!

  3. The Scientific Laws of Parenting

    by , 15-05-2012 at 20:52 (The Official Bub Hub Blog!)

    Bet you all thought that parenting was about instincts, tradition and luck ... nope! It is all science.

    In fact, I've observed the following scientific laws at work in my own house. You'll probably recognise them too ...

    Newton's First Law of Motion

    The Baby will happily remain in the one place unless The Toddler pushes her over.

    Newton's Third Law of Motion

    For every action that The Toddler does to The Baby there will be an equal and opposite

  4. Which TV mum are you?

    by , 14-05-2012 at 08:39 (The Official Bub Hub Blog!)

    Are you more Lois Griffin than Marion Cunningham? Do you raise your kids (and other people's) like Susan Kennedy or Pippa Fletcher-Ross?

    Or are you like another TV mum ...

    Take this quick fun quiz to find out which TV mum you're most like ... and don't forget to share it with your friends!

    Oh - you'll need some paper or a good memory (this isn't a fancy click-ey quiz)

  5. Time Magazine and THAT cover ... what do you think?

    by , 11-05-2012 at 11:59 (The Official Bub Hub Blog!)

    If Time Magazine's goal was to create discussion they have certainly achieved it with this month's cover.

    If you haven't seen it it shows an almost-four-year-old standing on a small chair breastfeeding from his mother.

    It is very staged (as are all magazine covers) and deliberately confronting in it's use of pose, eye contact and clothing (they want to sell copies after all!).

    See for yourself ...
