Jozikids - My No.1

When I first wrote about Jozikids, it was a relatively new website. Since then it has exploded into one of the most relevant local websites in its genre on the web.

Now that my grandson is a mighty presence, my daughter and I have been using Jozikids as our first - and usually last - port of call for just about anything imaginable regarding kids. Whether the question is about birthday parties, activities, child-rearing, classes, suitable gifts - you name it - Jozikids has the answers and the relative links. The site is bookmarked on both our phones and enjoys an exclusive spot on my site links here.

I recently stumbled upon Chai FM, a local radio station (101.9), while driving, and discovered that Merle, the dynamic mother of two and creator of the Jozikids website, had a regular spot on Chai FM in peak time, with updates on activities for the week and to discuss relevant issues.

For those of you parents in the Johannesburg / Gauteng areas who haven't yet discovered Jozikids, I strongly recommend that you visit the site and subscribe to their regular newsletter.

Merle, you and your team really rock! You've become a site that no "Bookmark" should be without.
