Tip 1 – Bake with the kids<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Tip<\/figure>
\n

Make cupcakes, cookies or scones together. Store the goodies in unique cookie jars<\/a> decorated with your own pictures on the lids.

Or why not print your favourite cookie recipe on the lid? Pretty and practical! <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n


Tip 2 – Make a cosy picnic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Tip<\/figure>
\n

It doesn\u2019t take much to keep the kids happy. Personalise your own bottles<\/a> to take with you. Fill them with lemonade, smoothies, or coffee.

The bottles keep cold drinks cool and hot drinks warm. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n


Tip 3 – Paint with the kids<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Tip<\/figure>

Let your imagination run riot and be creative with crayons, watercolours and finger paints.

Treasure your favourite drawings by printing them on our wonderful products<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n


Tip 4 – Take the whole family exploring in nature<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Tip<\/figure>
\n

Snap pictures of different insects, flowers and plants.

You can put together your own photo book<\/a> with all the best pictures. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
