Homemade woolfelt Ipad pocket

An easy-peasy project fot this evening is the woolfelt orange Ipad pocket. I just clipped some woolfelt and saw around. Done. We still use the silicon one when Greta uses the Ipad, and I use the smart cover when I need to put the ipad standing, but I just wanted something cozy for it this time :-)

Kids grooming tips needed

My kid won´t let me do anything to her. Every time she needs a bath, it is a fight. She washes her hair once a month, if we are lucky. She never liked any creams, either.
But lately I thought I have to do something with it. With long log talks about how important it is to brush the teeth becouse they will hurt otherwise. Or that we need to brush the hair because some bugs might strt leaving there otherwise. And we need to use the cream, because the skin gets too dry and "the doctor guy" will note like it. Little by little, it works. We found a shampoo/bath wash that she likes, because it is like foam. Now she likes me to spray her with a detangler before I brush her hair, and she enjoys her Tangle Teezer, bacause she can store inside some of her hair accessories. And now she also started enjoying me massaging her with a cream. Yes! The skin gets nicer and softer now, in this bad season in between cold and warm. She has also her own Badger lipstick, which she loves. Now I feel a little bit better and hope we will have less fight when the sunscreen season starts. By the way, we also read a book about the human body, where there was a boy with a sunburn, so I hope she will remember it when I explain the need of the sunscreen to her.
But still, do you have more tips? I would love to avoid all the "scary" part of the talking about the doctors that will not lke her and the bugs that will live in her hair.
In our home all the hygiene products we use are natural and cruelty free, so I rarely worry about the chemicals.

Spain

In the end of April we are going to Spain. We have a very good friends getting married in Madrid, and we are very excited to attend their wedding. But before that, we will have 5 days for a short road trip from Barcelona. My dream is to visit Andorra in spring and witness the cherry blossom. There are some other places I have heard about where I would like to stop. Do you have any other advice where to go around that area? And what to buy in Andorra (I have heard that it is like a huge supermarket, but much cheaper than everwhere else)
BCN - Besalú, Girona - Castellfollit de la Roca, Girona - Cadaqués, Girona - Andorra - BCN
Do you want to help me plan this little trip. Acomodation, sightseing, food?

Not bad for the money! Looking forward to go to the bath with all these new bath oils and shampoos! I still have lots of iHerb things in my wishlist, so this is not the last order there!

PS. If you order at iHerb, check with your local customs. If you live in Norway, do not order for more than 200 NOK at a time, and make sure the package weights less than 1.3 kg in order to choose the cheapest delivery option. It is better to order several packages with this criteria than one bigger and pay more expensive delivery and the importation taxes. And, you can use my discount code HEZ132 in orer to get $5 discount on the first order.
