Every now and again I hand over my blog and social media channels to my daughters who love to share with you what toys they’ve been enjoying recently. One collectable toy they really love is Num Noms. You must of heard of them if you have young girls. They are these cute little foodie collectable…
Have you seen the new series on Netflix yet? If you haven’t watched ’13 Reasons Why’ already, I would strongly recommend adding it to your list of must watch TV. It will draw you in as you follow the lives of students at Liberty High in the days before and after Hannah Baker takes her…
Las Iguanas invited us to their restaurant in Nottingham this week to check out the new menus, including what’s on offer for kids. Las Iguanas is a South American restaurant & bar that I used to visit before having the girls. I hadn’t really thought about it being a family friendly restaurant to take kids to…
Krakow is Poland’s most charming city where majestic history meets world-class infrastructure and service. Its beautiful monumental vistas, high safety standards, and hearty cuisine attract hordes of tourists annually, and a great number of them arrive in Krakow from other parts of the EU by car. With a new sense of adventure inspired by my…
Finding meals that the whole family enjoy can be tricky. I love spending time in the kitchen preparing nutritious offerings for Princess and Little Pudding and when I can throw one meal together that I know everybody will eat it makes life so much easier. Like most children, my brood would quite happily exist on…
The alarm was set, but the clocks were due to go back in the early hours. I foolishly put my faith in my smart phone to update to the new time automatically, and wake me with enough time to get ready before leaving for the airport. The alarm went and low and behold, I was…
When I first looked at planning the itinerary for our Iceland road trip, I talked about visiting the fishing village of Grindavik and heading towards the waterfalls near Vik. If you’ve been following my Instragram account recently you might have noticed that there was a bit of a change of plan. It was very last…
If you are planning a trip to Dubrovnik, then you are definitely in the right place. I am desperate to visit this Croatian city after my sister went to a wedding there last year. She fell in love with this Mediterranean jewel of the Adriatic sea, so I asked her to share with me what…
I find feeding my kids a healthy diet is something I constantly worry about as a parent. It seems to be something that has got harder as my children have got older, when I was really hoping that it would be easier to get them eating their five a day and enjoying a healthy balanced…
When your planning a holiday with friends or family, sometimes staying at an airport hotel is a sure fire way to get your trip off on the right foot. You might have heard that I went to Iceland recently, and we were flying from London Gatwick Airport. Our flight was at 7am in the morning,…
We have had such a lovely year being one of the #PLAYMOBILPlayologist’s and it ended on a real high in this house. My daughter received the Playmobil Country Pony Farm Set just in time for her 5th birthday and it made for a perfect present for her. She loved the advent calendar she received at Christmas and the hospital…
When I heard about the Elding Whale & Dolphin watching tours from Reykjavik I knew that it was something I wanted to do. Going to Iceland is as much about exploring the country as it is about exploring the North Atlantic and I wanted our adventure to feature a trip out to sea. I was…
One of the most significant events in this year’s political calendar happened this week when Theresa May triggered Article 50. It’s worth mentioning that at this point we are still a member of the European Union, and will enjoy all the rights and protections it gives us until all 27 member states agree on the…
Since we visited Amsterdam, so many people have said to me they had not thought of taking their children to the city, which I think is a real shame given that there are so many things to do in Amsterdam with kids. In the UK, Amsterdam still seems to have a reputation for being an…
It’s such a relief that spring is here isn’t it? Long gone are the cold grey days of winter and we are now enjoying blue skies and lighter nights. Everyone is starting to feel a lot more cheery and it’s a great time to harness these happier emotions and and think about updating your home….
Do you remember back in January I introduced you to the BISSELL Revolution Carpet Cleaner? We put it to the test on a range of household stains including mud, orange juice and red wine. It was pretty good at dealing with them too. Since then, the BISSELL Revolution Carpet Cleaner has been getting to work…
