That’s why we’ve put together this list of six trips every family should experience at least […]
Fairground Frights At Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach! From the 26th of October to the 30th Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach will once again be transformed from its usual family friendly tourist attraction of rides, smiles and ice creams to the fright night shennanigans which have put it very firmly on the map for Halloween half term in Norfolk. Five whole nights of ghoulish fun and frolics with the back drop of the fun fair and a whole host of scares. We’ve […]
Friday Night Treat Tea – Halloween Theme! We missed a week due to the school disco and timings but sent ourselves into Halloween half term with a Halloween themed Friday Night Treat Tea! It was going to be way more epic with a bubbling cauldron of cheese fondue but sadly a sickness bug took over most of the household so the treat was only for one and I had no energy. I cobbled together a pumpkin shaped cheese on toast, […]
Pokemon! My brothers are ten year’s younger than me, so before having children I had a little insight into what parenting small children was all about. I was more of a cool auntie than a sister by the time they were little boys and in my role as half adult (which I took very seriously), I was often able to provide them a cool present in a way an older sibling often isn’t. There was a phase when they were […]
The First Half Term 2022! While this first half term at school has gone by in a flash, it’s also felt super tough at times. I struggled a lot with Raffie going to school and still am. He feels too little and the time he spent as a pre-schooler feels like it was robbed with COVID so I’m sort of mourning the fact he’s not at home with me anymore on many levels. He is very happy to be at […]
London Transport Museum – October Half Term: Secrets Of The City! When we lived in London we visited the London Transport Museum usually at least once a week. The great thing about this place is that kids go FREE and once you buy an adult ticket (currently £21 for peak entry and £18.50 off peak – off peak is term time and summer holidays only after 2pm) it counts as an annual meaning you can visit unlimited times for a […]
Get 15% Off At The Tartan Blanket Company! It’s no secret that we are mega fans of The Tartan Blanket Company and while I have been lucky enough to work with them on gifted campaigns in the past, I am also a customer. Most recently they afforded me a little discount to treat my friend to one of their beautiful blanket scarves for her birthday and now they’ve extended the kind offer of money off to my readers too! For […]
October 2022 At Pensthorpe! We love ALL the seasons at Pensthorpe. The gardens change and move and grow. They become different colours and different places yet one thing is always the same, it’s a calm and beautiful place to be. I like each season for different reasons and have different places I like to walk depending on the weather and at Halloween half term, a time we have always been very fond of a visit in particular, my favourite way […]
Duxford Air Show! I wrote about the Duxford Airshows ahead of the events this year and after we tried one out for ourselves I posted to my Instagram page but I realised I didn’t ever put anything post visit on the blog and we had such a great time I wanted to show you! Check out my Insta reel here: It was such a great day out which we all enjoyed and we went en masse from age 1 to […]
Little Manfred At The Polka Theatre – Wimbledon! It’s been many years since we went to the Polka Theatre, more’s the pity but I feel soon I shall have to rectify this. I used to take the big two when they were little all the time, not because Wimbledon was close to where we lived, far from it, but because it was always so absolutely excellent that it was worth the journey across London and venturing south of the river […]
