BlogCrush Week 63 – 27th April 2018
Hello everyone! waves I hope you’ve had a good week. We’re on BlogCrush Week 63 and I’m so glad that you took the time to pop over!
About BlogCrush
BlogCrush is a linky (a place where bloggers can share their posts and reach new readers). The linky “opens” on Friday at 6am GMT and bloggers can start adding their posts. Just scroll down to the bottom of this post and you’ll see a collection of thumnbnail photos – each photo will take you to a different blogger’s post!
– If you’re a blogger, add 2 posts (yours AND someone else’s) by clicking on the blue “Add your link” button near the bottom of this post
– If you’re just here to read some fab blogs then keep scrolling and you’ll find the thumbnail links below
If you’re a blogger who hasn’t joined a linky before – don’t panic! They’re easy once you get the hang of it but can be a bit confusing at first. Check out my beginner’s linky guide for some help and advice, and feel free to message me if you have any specific questions.
This week’s hosts are:
- Lucy (Lucy At Home) – @lucy_at_home
- Alice (Letters To My Daughter) – @L2MyDaughter
BlogCrush is a little bit different to other linkies, though. We set it up to celebrate the wealth of blogging talent that is out there and share some love in the blogging community. So we don’t just share our own posts – we also ask each blogger to link up a post that they’ve enjoyed by someone else.
So you might be here because a fellow blogger has added your post.
That means they really liked it and they wanted to give it some extra exposure. You are under no obligation to do anything, but you have earned the coveted “I was featured on blogcrush” badge. If you’d like to display this on your blog, simply copy the code from the text box below and paste it into the HTML / text section of your blog!
All posts with a pinnable image will be added to the Blogcrush Pinterest Board, and the host’s blogcrushes will be added to the Best of Blogcrush board! We’d love you to follow those boards and the hosts too 🙂

The Rules
- Join in with 2 posts:
- 1 post from your blog (personal) – no linkies please

- When you add your BlogCrush (post written by someone else) to the InLinkz form, put “BC” at the beginning of their title
- Tweet your BlogCrush (& us) to let them know you’ve added them to the linky ( @lucy_at_home and @L2MyDaughter )
- Comment using the #BlogCrush hashtag on at least these 4 posts:
- 1 post from Host 1 (personal or BC)
- 1 post from Host 2 (personal or BC)

Blogcrush Week 63
Featured Posts
If you linked up last week, you’re eligible to be one of the hosts’ BlogCrush posts for this week. We each choose our favourite from the week before and add it back into the linky for some extra exposure!
Alice and I were hosting last week so we’ve chosen the featured posts for BlogCrush Week 63:
Alice’s Blogcrush choice is TBC
Lucy’s Blogcrush choice is Facing Change! by Read. Learn. Repeat.
Read. Learn. Repeat. is fast becoming my go-to place for children’s book suggestions. Margaret chooses a theme each week and then reviews three children’s books on that subject. Last week’s selection on facing change featured three books that I’d never heard of, but I wanted to read them all by the end!
Congratulations! Please collect your “I’ve been featured” badges from the top of the page because you are featured bloggers on BlogCrush Week 63!
Host Post
Today I’m linking up a post about spelling tests, and how to best support your child when they don’t like doing homework! – Avoid These Top 3 Spelling Test Mistakes Parents Make
I am very passionate about gentle parenting and encouraging children to do things rather than forcing them. However, it can be difficult when they have responsibilities that need to be fulfilled. This post lists the top 3 traps that parents fall into, but I also share 7 solutions that are tried and tested!
Thanks for linking up with us again at BlogCrush and I hope you all have a lovely weekend.

Thanks so much for the blog love, Lucy! 🙂
Lucy, thank you for hosting #BlogCrush. I love that it gives me an opportunity to put out a link to a great post of a blogger who doesn’t do linkups herself. Sue is a wise and wonderful woman who has lots of valuable things to say, but she doesn’t do a lot to “market” herself!
What a cool concept!! I love that you can showcase someone else!!
Finally all caught up with commenting on the posts that sang to me, what an amazing array of talented bloggers and insightful posts thank you everyone xxx
