Wroxham Barns 2025!

Posted in Days Out, Family Life Reviews, Norfolk Days Out and tagged , , , , , , , , , , .

Wroxham Barns 2025! Why do I keep going back to Wroxham Barns? Because it brings smiles like this one, that’s why! And because this gorgeous Broads destination farm changes like a chameleon with the seasons, it’s hard not to find something new with every visit. We last went at Christmas for their spectacular which leaves me wondering why anyone spends money on something like Lapland UK, prior to that we’d enjoyed fireworks night, Halloween, summer fun with glamping and more […]

Peppa Pig Costume – How To Make!

Posted in Crafting, Education and tagged , , , , , , , , , , .

Peppa Pig Costume – How To Make! Posie wanted to dress up as peppa Pig for World Book Day which sounds like quite a tricky costume to make but… I found some cheats to make it a last minute home made outfit which I think worked really well! You will need a red dress, pink tights and black shoes (ideally), and if you can get your hands on some piggy ears (we had hair clips) then even better! To make […]

Clawson Farms Cheeses Of Character!

Posted in Foodies and tagged , , , , , , , , , .

Clawson Farms Cheeses Of Character! Clawson Dairy has been an established cheesemaker since 1912 with their blue stilton being the signature cheese on their extensive board! I love cheese so jumped at the chance to sample both their classic artisan 1912 stilton, alongside their golden version and more than that, get to create something yummy using their brand new range in the Clawson Farms character truckles! The blue cheese is undeniably unctuous and delicious, and the new truckles, which come […]

My Child, My Holiday, My Rules!

Posted in Uncategorized

My Child, My Holiday, My Rules! Before my first baby was born I couldn’t imagine how life would be with a baby in the mix. You’re pregnant, you can feel this baby moving and yet trying to figure out exactly what life will be like when they arrive? Well, unfathomable isn’t it?! She was due over Christmas and I remember saying “if the baby comes before New Year’s Eve” I think I’ll go out, my Mum will sit for us.” […]

Cricket/Grasshopper Costume – Home Made!

Cricket/Grasshopper Costume – Home Made! It’s coming up to Raffie’s “mini beast day” at school. So, in half term, he, Posie and I created a Cricket costume for him to wear. The brief is basically “come as a bug” and seeing as all my children have an insect for a middle name, we had to go with Raffie’s for Raffie Rocco Cricket! We took an old Hello Fresh box and laid it out flay before drawing on the shape of […]

Banham Zoo 2025!

Banham Zoo 2025! We used to be annual pass holders at Banham Zoo and just had that on a rolling basis for years right up until Covid. They really annoyed me with how they treated annual pass holders and adding on time (or not as the case may be in my case) so after that I just stopped my pass and have visited a handful of times only when they’ve had an offer on day tickets. I do love the […]

BeWILDerwood 2025!

Posted in Days Out, Family Life Reviews, Norfolk Days Out and tagged , , , , , , , , , , .

BeWILDerwood 2025! I’m sure we HAVE had some negative experiences at BeWILDerwood in the last 15 years since we started visiting with a baby Florence, but I’m struggling to remember a time when we’ve come home feeling annoyed. I found it irksome that they cashed in on the Glorious Glowing lantern Parade after covid and made it a stand alone ticket on top of the day ticket but aside form that, I can’t think of anything I don’t like! I […]
