UK Parents: What’s Your Favourite Children’s Nursery Rhyme?

Maybe you are a fan of The Wheels on the Bus or Wind the Bobbin up? Now you have a chance to vote for your favourite children’s nursery rhyme over at Rhyme Stars.

BT’s Openreach will donate £1 for every vote registered and you can win an iPod touch. If 50,000 people vote by 30th April then an extra £50,000 will be donated so get voting!

Also, if you are keen on karaoke then you can record your own rhyme to raise an extra £2 for charity! Not for the shy though as everyone will be able to listen to you warbling.

According to the website, the top ten are currently:

1 Twinkle Twinkle little star

2 Incey Wincey Spider

3 Baa Baa Black Sheep

4 Row Row Row your boat

5 Old MacDonald had a farm

6 Round and round the garden

7 Grand Old Duke of York

8 Humpty Dumpty

9 1,2,3,4,5 Once I Caught a Fish Alive

10 5 little ducks went swimming one day

I had to add my personal favourite to the list which is “A Frog He Would A-Wooing Go”. It is a great one for singing along to in the car :)

UK Parents: Calling all Pushy Mums!

Join in the short family walks taking place across the UK to give children orphaned by AIDS a better future. There is a small entry fee of £5 and all proceeds go to Save the Children.

The next walk is happening in Battersea Park on Sunday 19th August (10.30am start). You are given a goody bag and there is a chance to meet Children’s TV Characters.

To register and to get more information about the walks go to Pushy Mums

Go ahead and help push for change :)

Littlelegends: Vicky’s new Pledge!

There is a great site called Pledgebank where you promise to do something as long as others take some action too. The site was built by MySociety which is a charitable organisation headed by Tom Steinberg.

I have made the following pledge:

I will donate £100 to Barnardos but only if 10 other people will join in the Littlelegends UK Community Project for Parents and Carers by adding one useful comment or one new place to the website

Hopefully this will help to demonstrate that I am committed to social networking and really want to help parents across the UK help themselves by sharing information!

To sign up to my pledge, then please visit this page and follow the instructions.

Thank you :)
