![[AD & FREE Trial Offer!] During the last lockdown, apps such as @readingeggs really helped Sharon and I keep T up to date with his phonics and maths. Whilst we can help with some things, it's been an age since we did schoolwork, and "back in our day" we weren't doing phonics! Looking online, it appears we weren't alone either. Loads of you turned to #ReadingEggs to help with home learning and found it a great tool for learning and fun, especially at times when you all just needed a break from each other.
This week, even though it's #HalfTerm, we're taking full advantage of Reading Eggs, as unfortunately we both still have to work. The app is bright and colourful, and take users through dozens of levels of learning; teaching subjects such as spelling and reading, as well as addition and subtraction over in the #Mathseeds area, plus so much more - including an area for older children. When enough coins and tokens are collected through learning, your little one can then play games, create their own Avatar or decorate their treehouse. There's so much to do and explore.
If you'd like to give Reading Eggs a try, I've got a great offer available at the moment where you can try @readingeggs for FREE for 30 days. Just pop over to the link in our bio or visit https://readingeggs.co.uk/lesbe to find out more!

![[AD - Gift] 🍑 One thing "they" don't tell you much about when you have children - especially a same sex couple - is the affect it'll have on the bedsheets! 💀 I know, I know, it's not a topic that I often raise on here, but I've started to follow some amazing (and rather sexy!) creators on here recently that talk about this kinda thing and it's given me the confidence to share some of our experiences to "normalise" sex between other couples. I'm no @laurenashleygordon (who is the go-to gal if you want to know more about toys and your own pleasure!) but I'm not as meek and mild as you might think 😏😉
So sure, straight after childbirth things might be a little bit different, especially if you're like me and had to have a few stitches where the sun doesn't shine, but after that period you assume everything will go back to "normal". How wrong was I. Whilst every couple is different, for us we found it difficult to prioritise us (as well as find the energy!). T breastfed for almost two years and when I went back to work after a year's maternity leave I worked a variety of shifts for a demanding organisation, so you can imagine what affect that had on "us".
Last week, the lovely @thesexdoctor released their latest online workshop, detailing 'How To Not Let Children Ruin Your Sex Life' and Sharon and I have been taking part. If you're already a fan, it follows the same structure as their other workshops (bite size videos and tasks to download) and is aimed at all parents of children 5 and under. It's also wonderfully inclusive to LGBTQ+ couples! If you'd like to give it a try, we currently have a discount code that offers our followers 25% off the course. ➡️ Just type in 'LESBE25' at checkout! ⬅️
