I don't know about you, but this is the time of year when I find everything seems to open up and new avenues suddenly appear more possible. Our feature on nannying in Italy (p14) describes just the sort of lifestyle that makes people in this office say they wish they were nannies. If you prefere to stay closer to home, we map out how to find a nanny job, whether you are newly-qualified or simply want to check you're doing it right (p12). Developments in Government thinking, that we analyse on p6, have led some people to suggest there won't be so many nanny jobs in future, or that having a nanny will become a less attractive option. I expect that nothing much will actually change. Many parents will continue to prefer nannies for the same reasons they do now - flexibility and dedication - not to mention some economies of scale compared with nurseries or childminders. Parents know that nannies are value for money. At least the controversy over tax credits puts that issue out in the open.

They come down to a matter of: do you want the bad news first, or the even worse news?

What shall we do now? Making a picture book

What better way for children to learn that books are something to enjoy and cherish than to make one of their own? The best part is, this activity can easily be adapted for even the youngest of authors. The first thing you'll need is a character. Sit down with the child, and ask them who their book will be about. It could be themselves, a favourite TV star, or even an imaginary friend. If they have trouble deciding upon a character, give them several options and let them choose.
