I still have a good few months to work on the alphabet cards, but it is a fair point; babies don't tend to be overly traumatised by when these things actually arrive. <BR/><BR/>Yes, birthdays which are or very close to holidays do have their advantages. Tinker should be born in August so shouldn't have to go to school on his birthday.The Goldfishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15213378454070776331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10557263.post-1143120120740236192006-03-23T13:22:00.000+00:002006-03-23T13:22:00.000+00:00In case you want some more inspiration: http://www...In case you want some more inspiration: <BR/>http://www.toyspectrum.de/Spielkarten/spielkarten.html<BR/><BR/>The alphabet is incomplete, probably to prevent people making copies. <BR/>Sorry, but I still can't put proper links in a comment...sigh!BloggingMonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17767164739217269193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10557263.post-1143100703305673862006-03-23T07:58:00.000+00:002006-03-23T07:58:00.000+00:00But surely homemade alphabet cards will be far mor...But surely homemade alphabet cards will be far more treasured by Tinker when they get older. Especially when they have been made with so much love and care.<BR/><BR/>If you want advice on some good books for the little might, I'm your man. Lily's daughter Sybil (aged 5) has had me reading to her lots and lots so I know all about 'Hairy McClary' (quite brilliant), 'Dirty Bertie' (hilarious) and other assorted tomes.marmiteboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06727386811098683743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10557263.post-1143040047931946442006-03-22T15:07:00.000+00:002006-03-22T15:07:00.000+00:00Well, not that I have ever written a novel, but I ...Well, not that I have ever written a novel, but I do have to write lengthy essay once in a while and I usually think I will never get them finished and it will all be rubbish in the end. My experience is that once you take the effort to actually come to an end, it is all well and I am sure you will be pleased with the result. <BR/>Little Tinker will love the Alphabet cards, I am sure. They are hand made and really unique. It is a much greater commitment than simple buying a set of cards. Maybe you should just take some time. I have never heard of a newborn baby, which was unhappy because there were no alphabet cards around. It will probably be OK to deliver them on his/her first birthday or so. <BR/>I was born on may 1st, Mayday, which is a holiday. Little me thought it would be a brilliant idea never having to go to school or to work on my birthday. Good, isn't it?BloggingMonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17767164739217269193noreply@blogger.com
