A couple of months ago I took the children (and my adult cousin Helen) to see Disney On Ice – Worlds of Fantasy. We absolutely loved it and had the most brilliantly magical time! We so loved Disney On Ice – Worlds Of Fantasy! Now Disney is back on the ice with its brans new show, Disney On Ice – 100 Years Of Magic! It looks absolutely brilliant, which even if only half as good as ‘Worlds Of Fantasy’ I […]
We are very lucky and get to go to the theatre to review for the blog a lot. I am engaged with theatre in a way that I might not be had I not studied at a drama school and I feel it is so important to introduce children to the genre very early on. Mine have both been going since they were very tiny and I know that they get something from it which far exceeds lots of other […]
So, Lollibop got off to a flying start yesterday with absolute aplomb! They have totally got their groove on and know exactly who they are this year! I have always loved it but last year the festival which bills itself as ‘the big bash for little people’ perhaps wasn’t located in the right venue and as a result came under some criticism for being too commercial. Firstly, I have to say this aspect didn’t bother me personally, without sponsors there […]
If you’re going to the Lollibop Festival this weekend then make sure you take a stop at Little Tikes town! It’s an area where the children can play with all the famous Little Tikes toys and just like last year my two loved it! Away from the main stage fun and frolics and of the dancing tents like Itsy Bitsy Strictly, this area is somewhere just to have a wind down and a little drive of the cars. It was […]
I saw something really cool this afternoon and because I have a strong suspicion that it is going to be on the news at 6 o’clock tonight, I thought I’d get in there and report on it a good few minutes before them! Ha! So, have you ever taken the little ones to a proper museum? You know the type I mean. Not something like the Science Museum for example where the hands on experiments engage them practically but somewhere say, […]
I love Cromer; It’s not too far from where I was brought up in Norwich and we spent a lot of time there when I was little. My Grandparents first took me camping there when I was just a few weeks old and we continued to go to that camp site every year in our caravan until I was a teenager. I even went with my best friend as we got older and had my first weekend away without parents! […]
I’m rather partial to a trip around Lakeland in order to ooh and ahh over all the lovely cakey cookware, gadgets and gizmos! It’s the sort of shop that all my female (sorry to be sexist, I’m sure lots of men like it too) friends are in love with and everyone has a favourite product! One of mine is the Dry-Soon 3-Tier Heated Tower Airer which I wrote a review of here. I wasn’t sent it to review and was under no […]
When I found out I was having Florence I remember telling my Grandma on the phone and she sounded gobsmacked. She could barely talk and told me she would ring me back. Some minutes later the phone rang and it was Grandma. She said ‘I’m sorry I didn’t say the right thing, I just didn’t know what to say? You see, you’re just our little Ruth and it took me a moment to understand that really you’re grown up now and […]
Well. We’ve been. We loved it. We now have holiday blues! Camp Bestival was one of the best and most fun things we have ever done as a family and I can’t quite believe that as a novice camper I was concerned it might not be enjoyable without a proper bed and luxury toilets! Now that it’s all gone we just wish we could rewind time and do it all over again without having to wait a whole year for […]
Halfords Top Box – Exodus 470! When we found out we were to be Camp Bestival bloggers we were absolutely thrilled to bits. A weekend of camping with friends, live music and fun seemed like an amazing prospect but then we started to think about all the things we would need to take with us. Being absolutely novice campers we had no gear whatsoever and no idea how much space said gear would take up in our car. Lulworth Castle […]
