Tween Winter Wardrobe
It’s finally coming into Winter in Australia. That means boots, jeans, jackets and cosy knits. But what to buy your tween girl this season that will ensure she actually wears something other than her oodie 24/7. Tweens of course are notoriously hard to dress – changing tastes, styles and body shapes make it hard to shop for them and sometimes even harder to shop with them! While they may mostly wear a uniform, buying a few key pieces should see them dressed warmly and well - for the next few months at least!
Healthy Snacks
You’ve come home from school and you’re starving. Somehow, your kind and caring mother/father/carer has not laid out a freshly prepared and delicious afternoon tea for your enjoyment. Luckily, thanks to this article, you’re able to prepare your own afternoon snack that is not only healthy, but super delicious. Well done you!
Top 5 Tween Backpacks
Gone are the days of the cutesy prints, princesses and superheroes. Tweens crave cool stylish backpacks with lots of storage.

Franc has compiled a list of our top 5 backpacks (in all of Australia!) for tweens based on style, functionality, tween-appeal and durability.
