I took my 3 year old to see Grass at Lakeside Theatre this weekend. She was very excited as she enjoy’s the theatre a lot and Nottingham Lakeside is one of our very favourite places. We left Daddy and Little Pudding at home as I don’t think the 1 year old would have sat still like she used…
Recently I’ve been thinking about how to keep the girls busy through the autumn. There is a little part of me that is sad about the wet and cold weather coming, and getting them out to the park becomes not being quite so easy. One thing I haven’t been doing with the both of them…
I hate to say it but I think summer is almost done. The days are getting shorter and the weather is getting wetter and colder by the minute. The reality for us parents though is that the kids still need entertaining and getting out of the house, before everyone goes up the wall. As…
We were all really excited about being invited to the In The Night Garden Party back in April, as not only did this mean hanging out with Upsy Daisy and Iggle Piggle but it also meant a trip to CBeebies Land at Alton Towers Resort. You already know that we love a good day out,…
Princess requires a lot of interaction, and it’s not always possible to give it to her with the needs of a baby to meet at the same time. I have three days a week when it’s just me and Little Pudding at the moment, but I have spent very little time with just the preschooler….

Princess turned 3 last week, and she had been waiting for this day for about 6 month’s. It wasn’t the birthday, per se, but the idea of a party that had captured her imagination. She’d been to a few now, and was looking forward to one of her very own. We haven’t had a…
We have been buying tickets to go to the Children’s and Families events at the Djanogly Theatre since September last year, and everytime we go we have been buying the tickets for the next production. Last time I was feeling a little rushed, and made a snap decision to by the family tickets to the dance…
We really love taking the girls to the theatre, it is definitely one of our favourite places to go. Princess really enjoys it now, and gets really excited when she knows we are going to see a performance. Even Little Pudding, at 8 months, is transfixed by the storytelling that the theatre can bring to…
As Autumn finally took it’s hold the clan at Zena’s Suitcase headed of to Birmingham to meet up with Peso and Kwazii and find out what they were up to at the Sea Life Centre. We decided to drive as we had 2 kids and pushchairs in tow. We were able to park in the…
