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 […]
Family Days Out
Dear Legoland’s Chief Executive Officers, I know, as the people where the buck stops, you would absolutely be interested to know what a truly terrible time lots of your guests have when visiting Legoland. I’m sure not ALL, for example my 6 year old, who is like a little puppy, would absolutely keep coming back for more; ever hopeful that “this time” WILL be the day he actually gets to go on lots of rides. But for so many with sense, […]
BeWILDerwood – Twiggle Tots! Weekdays at BeWILDerwood have never looked more affordable! If you have a little Twiggle Tot (ages 3 and under) then a special £10.50 price has been set for a tiny one, AND their grown up, to spend a day going wild in the woods! This offer is valid for weekdays during the whole month of June and if day 1 is anything to go by, is going to be VERY popular! We are long time fans […]
Easter At Pensthorpe – 2024! Will we be visiting Pensthorpe Natural Park, one of our favourite places this coming Easter holiday?! Well, of course! Pensthorpe has always been a staple in our school holiday calendar (it’s a staple all year round actually) and this coming break is no exception! Pensthorpe is the perfect mix of wholesome, outdoorsy exercise (needed with four children all fuelled with energy to burn) and fun play both inside and out. You absolutely don’t need children […]
Norwich Science festival 17th-24th February 2024! The Norwich Science Festival has begun for 2024 and as it runs from the 17th-24th of February, it covers the whole of half term. There’s a wealth of FREE activities on offer as well as some payable fun and it’s happening all over Norfolk. The hub is at the Forum library in the heart of the city centre where you will find daily activities on offer to be enjoyed in a free flow style. […]
Pensthorpe For February Half Term 2024! We are year round visitors to Pensthorpe taking full advantage of our annual pass which allows us visits even in school holidays! Posie and I regularly trip there during the week to have fun in the daily “messy mornings” held at the indoor play space “Hootz House” (all included in the entry price), followed by fun in the play area, gardens and wonderful playground, but in the school holidays we always like to go […]
Wroxham Barns For Every Occasion! I was at play group yesterday listening to some other Mums talking about how they’d ended up spending a small fortune at a pumpkin patch in Norfolk over half term and how unreasonable it all was. The place they’d been had charged them for the pumpkin (x 2 came to £12), charged them for the carving, the crafts and other activities and on top of that the experience had lasted only about an hour and […]
Pettitts Animal Adventure Park – Norfolk! I remember visiting (and enjoying) Pettitts Animal Adventure Park as a child myself and then absolutely year’s ago taking Florence with a new born Jimmy for their first and only trip there. I’m not sure why we never went back but for whatever reason it simply wasn’t on my radar and whenever people have mentioned it the idea hasn’t stuck. Until now… Friends were going this week and Posie and I joined them in […]
Funderworld Norwich 2023! We had THE MOST tremendous time at Funderworld Norwich over the weekend! The travelling theme park is here in Norfolk only until the 4th of June 2023 so you’ll have to be quick if you don’t want to miss the thrills at the Norfolk Showground! I loved the way it’s been set up in a giant circle and felt totally safe letting my bigger two (13 and 11) to go off together for a bit. That way […]
Pensthorpe For Easter 2023! Having been regular visitors of Pensthorpe ever since we had children we’ve seen many changes at the park. It has always been a wonderful day out for families, but over the years there has been tremendous focus on making it more welcoming and inviting as well as inclusive for all. Not only have the play areas, both inside and out become a real hub, a massive talking point about their brilliance, but activities on offer such […]
