Five Minute Mum: Give Me Five

  • Five Minute Mum: Give Me Five

    Five Minute Mum

  • Ideal for early years to KS1 children who are learning at home.

    Daisy Upton has two little kids. She loves them - but they drive her mad.

    So, to try and keep her sanity she started to come up with quick, easy games using stuff from around the house. And @FiveMinuteMum was born.

    In her first book, she has collected 150+ games that take 5 minutes to set up & 5 minutes to tidy up.

    From pasta posting to alphabet knock down, it's a recipe book for guilt free parenting!

    And as Daisy was a teaching assistant, your little ones will be learning while they play! What could be better?

    GIVE ME FIVE is the perfect companion for anyone who wants five minutes peace.

    Coming in 2021:
    Five Minute Mum: On the Go
    Five Minute Mum: Time For School

    "I love Five Minute Mum. She's managed to come up with a huge array of activities for kids that are fun and educational yet don't require an Art degree or Diploma in Patience to execute."Sarah Turner, aka Unmumsy Mum

Daisy Upton

Daisy Upton's first book Five Minute Mum: Give Me Five is a bestseller. She is a Londoner who now lives in Cheshire with her husband and two children. After years of working in sports broadcasting she quit her job to become a Teaching Assistant, which her colleagues at the time found baffling! When her two children turned 3 and 1 she found her love of coming up with silly games to make learning more fun in the classroom finally came into its own at home, and she began blogging about what she was up to. It turned out quite a few other people wanted to play these games too. Daisy now has a large social media and blog following who share with her on a daily basis how they too are playing her games. Daisy likes to celebrate this fact by eating large quantities of chocolate oranges and creme eggs (season dependant), and dancing in the kitchen.
