Season's
greetings and thank you to all readers and site customers.
Early 2011 prooved quite a challenge in respect of the website's
internet presence. Changes to service providers meant a change
to the website's coding, a complete rewrite of each and every site
page and a rethink & reorganisation of the store's payment system.
Slowly, and nearly a year on it's all coming back together. I hope
the changes have in turn made the site stronger and more accessible
for visitor's needs, feedback is always warmly welcomed if you would
like to get in touch - mail@silkysteps.com
Have a wonderful Yule and enjoy all your planned festivities.

2008
saw much less time for organising
the advent daily so a decision was made to make the page accessible
all year round. To keep it personal a commitment was also made to
provide a new resource title per year, adding annual interest to
the page's catalogue of links and play ideas.
Resource
for 2008 - Santa's kitten helper
Throughout 2007 the advent was developed
further and once again from the first of December a new or revised
activity was made available.
In 2006 the Christmas advent page
was launched and a new activity published for each day of December's
festive countdown.
