Your baby’s first year is a time of discovery for you both. On iChild we have some fun activities for you to do together to help your baby's development. We also have some lovely nursery rhymes for you to sing!
Young babies are not in themselves that expensive, particularly if you choose to breastfeed exclusively. All they really ask is to be warm, dry, fed and loved. But if as new parents you are struggling with the loss of an income and trying to balance that with buying all the kit you think you need for your baby, it can add up into quite a stressful time financially.
F&C has produced some articles relevant to the first 12 months, giving information on Budgeting, The Child Trust Fund, and How to Open a Child Trust Fund.
Enter this competition to be in with a chance of winning a pair of tickets to The Scottish Baby Show 2010, between April 23rd-25th. We've got 12 pairs of tickets to give away!

Childsure has launched a brand new initiative to allow every school and nursery in the UK to receive FREE sports and play equipment. Please let your school or nursery know that they simply need to register for the free sports equipment scheme, and then if you purchase a Child Health Solutions policy from Childsure (and nominate that school), the school will receive £15 of vouchers to spend on sports or play equipment. Schools and nurseries should register here. As a parent you can receive a quote, purchase a policy and nominate your school or nursery to receive free sports equipment here.
