I bet you all guessed this was going to be the topic after our mention of going to an amusement park last week... Mia had a ball and wanted to relive the experience so this week, we will walk you through the "Amazement Park" (as she calls it). It was great to witness her confidence build as she tested each ride and formed an opinion of her level of comfort with risk taking. 

Mia wanted to flip the podcast this week and interview her Mum  on what it's like to be a mum. After playing so many games of Mums & Dads with her brother and her friends, Mia is convinced that being a Mum is the best job in the world. Listen to hear her deep questions and we unpack what it's like to be a mum. 

Great topic this week submitted by Mia's friend, Frankie. Mia walks us through her thought process and preparation so she can find her voice when stepping into potentially uncomfortable situations. Mia doesn't like the term "shy" and she delivers her opinion in such a way that we can all learn from her wisdom. 

Our very dear friend, Nadine, is visiting from England so we couldn't pass up the opportunity to interview her on the podcast to learn a bit about her homeland. Join Mia as she asks Nadine the hard hitting questions and it will come as no surprise that Mia is now looking at flights...

Mia is realllllllly into Harry Potter right now and she wants to chat to you about it. If you're new to Harry Potter, a lover of Fantastic Beasts or if you also share a life long obsession with all things magical, this episode is for you! 

Mia is feeling so lucky that her Grandma has been able to fly to Sydney to visit her after nearly 3 years of being separated because of The Big C (Covid!!). Mia interviews her Grandma on this episode and finds out what it's like to be a Grandma and if it's really as fun as it seems :) 

Knowing when to say sorry and finding the right words can be tough. Mia walks us through her thought process when she knows she needs to say sorry and ask for forgiveness. She also talks about her role in our family to teach her little brother this skill as well. Saying sorry doesn't have to be painful - we hope you get a few pearls of advice out of this episode.

Life is full of wins and loses. It's really important to know how to win gracefully but also to lose gracefully. Mia she's her mindset when it comes to winning and how she finds her choice of language in these situations to be critical. At the end of the day, she just wants to have fun!

Both Mia and Mason have been on the confidence roller coaster this week with Mia moving up a level in jiu jitsu and Mason having his first class. Listen as Mia describes how she stayed calm and coped with the challenge of change. 

Science is a big part of our household life - we are learning about the periodic table and we try to be curious about our world and environment. As a result, we love doing experiments at home to learn how things work or why things happen so Mia wanted to share 3 of her favourite experiments with you! All 3 are easy to do and we are fairly certain you'll have the equipment / ingredients at home or that you can easily purchase them. Please note that we recommend trying all 3 with your parents and not alone. Each experiment has something, i.e. hair spray, food colouring or vinegar, involved so it's best to do these experiments with adult supervision. Write in to us at glitterhour.com and tell us how you went and also, share any good experiments with us! We're always game to try a new one :)
