Too cold to go outside? Too grey? Too windy? Too dark? There are plenty of games to play with your little ones indoors, to keep boredom at bay. Here are a few new ideas to get you started. Indoor bowling  Perfect for the hallway. Collect a set of 10 clean and empty plastic bottles or cardboard containers (juice boxes or milk cartons) and set them up just like the ten pins at the bowling alley. Use a stick, rope or bit of tape to mark out the starting line at the other end of the hallway - and then let the games begin! To make a level playing field among children of different ages you could add in additional starting lines closer to your "ten pins". Alternatively, you could get older kids to use a handball or tennis ball while younger ones get to roll a bigger ball.

Huggies Pull-Ups An important step in the  toilet training process  is to foster your toddler’s desire to be a big kid and to be independent. Huggies Pull-Ups Toilet Training Pants have been designed with this in mind. By showing your child the Pull-Ups pant graphics and characters, they can see that they are more like undies than nappies. This helps to send a clear signal to your child that they are embarking on an exciting new stage of being a big kid. The “Feel Wet to Learn” Wetness Liner temporarily allows your child to feel the wetness against their skin before drawing it away. This in turn teaches your toddler to distinguish between feeling wet and feeling dry and helps them to learn when they need to go to the toilet. At Costco: Pull-Ups Size 2 51ct $34.99 (69c each) Pull-Ups Size 3 45ct $34.99 (78c each)

With the winter months upon us, it’s important we take extra care with little ones during the colder weather. Take a look at our handy tips to make sure your child stays warm and well this winter. 1. Wrap up warm Think layers! Make sure your little one is wrapped up warmly but can take off layers easily if needed. Opt for wool over cotton if you can because it keeps the warmth in more effectively. We’ve all heard it, but it’s worth remembering – we lose up to 30% of our body heat through our heads, so make sure your bub wears a hat. A waterproof jacket is also a must-have for your toddler.

1. Don't spend your life in a job you hate. Life is too short to live it only in the evening and at weekends. 2. If there's something bad happening in your life you genuinely have no control over, learn all you can about it and how to live with it. Beating your head against a brick wall is unproductive. 3. If you think you can change it, then go all out to do so. Try to understand its nature and work with it where you can.

The RBA has decided to keep the cash rate on hold today, meaning that homeowners will have to face another month of interest rates at their current levels. For many, this move has not come as a surprise as most economists predicted that a rate cut was unlikely given the present state of the economy. Although conditions have worsened somewhat with the recent sharp slide of the Australian dollar, the move to reduce interest rates is viewed as a last resort by the RBA with rates already at historically low levels. Furthermore, the bank feels there is still room for results to deteriorate before any further action is required.
