Jen, from Kent, tells us how to create fruit rainbows, yum!
What did you do?
I created a rainbow out of fruit for our breakfast. It only required ensuring we had fresh fruit for each colour of the rainbow. For this one, I used: strawberries, mangos, bananas, kiwis, blueberries, and grapes.
I was thrilled that such a variety of fruit was coming into season and it was lovely to celebrate it. My little one even said, “oh mummy, rainbow!” when I showed him. He wasn’t keen on the kiwi which needed a little more time to ripen, but devoured everything else!

How are you finding being housebound so far?
I’ve found it challenging. Working from home while keeping a toddler occupied has been tough.
Do you have any tips for other parents?
I now approach each day like I do with teaching. I spend time in the evening, planning and setting up for the next day. While it’s a bit of work in the evening, it has meant that my little one is able to get stuck in to playing/activities while I get on with some work. Time I spend with him is playing and reading rather than trying to come up with activities while managing work.
Has this website and community helped you?
There are so many lovely ideas. Thank you for sharing!
