How can I be a calmer parent? You may or may not know how I got into Oojamabobs. The short answer is I started Oojamabobs after supporting a friend through their child’s autism diagnosis. The longer answer starts back in 2015. I had a couple of accidents within a few weeks of each other where […]
Early Oojamabobs packaging I’ve been agonising over my packaging for YEARS. I wanted to provide my customers with a positive ‘unboxing’ experience and to feel good about the product they have bought.But as a consumer myself, I absolute detested all the unnecessary plastic, wire ties, unnecessary cards and tags held on with yet MORE plastic.

Pancakes and food colouring Tomorrow is one of my children’s favourite days. PANCAKE DAY! We have pancakes on a semi-regular basis here, so something is needed to distinguish it from other days.

Here’s what we got up to… I confess, it really didn’t start well! The smallest got chicken pox a few days before the start of […]

Most parents will agree, it’s tough balancing work life and home life and nothing tests that more than the Summer holidays. Let alone adding chronic illness into the mix. I’ve hardly found […]
I’ve been doing a lot of events recently. These tend to be family fun days, or autism or SEND events and I have a lot of wonderful young people and their families visiting my table.The bright colours and fun shapes attract adults and children alike (which of course is my aim; funky designs for all […]
Why do some children chew excessively? Chewing is a totally natural and normal behaviour for children, especially during their early years. We all know babies and young toddlers put everything in their mouths, from toys and shoes to cat food, sand and even snails….I always found the eating of sand in particular grossed me out!! […]
Take-home strategies from Purple Ella’s talk on ADHD and Autism in Bristol Last week I got to go to my old stomping ground (Bristol) to see my amazing friend talk about their experiences of having both Autism and ADHD. I was kindly invited to attend by Bristol Autism Support and set up a table with […]
