Cinderella At St George’s Theatre Great Yarmouth! Modern, yet traditional all in one; a juxtaposition, but here we are, and panto is meant to be a bit bonkers so we have it sticking to form in Cinderella at The St George’s Theatre in Great Yarmouth for 2025! We were invited back for a second year running to see the pantomime offering at St George’s Theatre in Great Yarmouth, and for a second year running, and despite my deep reservations about […]
My First Panto – Rapunzel At The Garage Norwich! Having visited the My First series of productions hosted at The Garage for a number of years, we always look forward to the next offering. This year’s production of Rapunzel didn’t disappoint! Written and originally directed by the very talented Daniel Burgess, this version is a reworking of a show we have seen (and loved) before, but still just as gorgeously inviting for little ones! the theatre space, as always, is […]
BeWILDerwood Presents Christmas 2025! BeWILDerwood has opened the marshes for the festive period again, and while it’s a little different in terms of experience, to a regular BeWILDerwood adventure, it’s certainly just as magical as always! The Boggles and Twiggles who live at BeWILDerwood, and who make up the cast of characters beneath the pages of Tom Blofeld’s stories (TB grew up on this land and wrote the stories before building the park) are very present alongside Christmassy characters and […]
The Wroxham Barns Christmas Experience for 2025 is exceptionally magical and I don’t think you’d find anything else quite like it for the price tag in the area. Top marks all round for the most fun, festive experience for children who will feel like they are in actual Lapland with the most realistic Father Christmas who really has made us question if he might just possibly be… He might you know!
The Snowman – Sadlers Wells 2025! I took my little two and their cousin to see The Snowman, the Sadlers Wells annual festive offering for children which never disappoints. A ballet for children, of this well known Raymond Briggs classic is a sure fire recipe for greatness, and yet it still amazes me as I well up with delight every year as how utterly magical it all is! The talented cast seem to effortlessly glide their way through the beautiful […]
Stick Man Live – 2025! Stick Man is back in his family tree for the 2025 festive season and after changing theatres last year, from the Leicester Square, to The Bloomsbury, they have clearly made the choice that the latter is a far better branch for these sticks to love for their run, and I agree! So, The Bloomsbury hosts the show for 2025, which I always say is the best children’s theatre I have ever seen. I’ve been reviewing […]
Winter Wonderland Norwich 2025! It’s back, FREE to get into for the 2025 festive season, and better than ever we would say! Winter Wonderland Norwich has well and truly landed Father Christmas’s sleigh, with an incredibly festive bauble on top this year, and the fun doesn’t stop until January the 4th! Day and night the entertainment will be abundant in the Alpine Lodge so you have somewhere to relax and soak up the live music, as you get cosy before […]
Wroxham barns Halloween 2025! There are very many reasons to visit Wroxham Barns throughout the year, the farm, the park, the fun fair, soft play, glamping and camping, fireworks, Christmas, afternoon tea… And my favourite time to visit, Halloween! I mean, don’t get me wrong, we love glamping there in the summer and the Christmas offering is something else (more to come on the 2025 festivities soon), but there’s something about Halloween in general for me that pips it all […]
Banham Zoo Halloween 2025! Over half term I went with my friend, and a selection of our children, for a re-visit to Banham Zoo. We’ve been a few times recently and having been members pre-covid I had thought, on our previous visit, that it may have lost a little of its sparkle. It was still good but… I don’t know, I can’t put my finger on why, but it just felt a little flat. The penguins couldn’t be seen on […]
Pip and Posy at Blenheim Palace! Last week, for the start of half term, we were very kindly invited to hang out at Blenheim Palace and having not been before, but taking a look at their new Pip and Posy themed playground on their website, we couldn’t wait! The palace is huge and the things to see are so varied and vast, it meant we had to be really decisive over what we wanted to see so I asked a […]
