I’m so happy that we are on our final week of school before the Easter holidays. My children are desperate for a break from school and I am looking forward to all those after school clubs finishing for a couple of weeks. As well as the 2 week holiday we will also be celebrating Easter!…

Exploring Tower Bridge London with kids

Exploring Tower Bridge with kids

Posted on March 31, 2019May 22, 2025 by jenny

A few weeks ago we were invited to visit Tower Bridge and The Monument, two iconic landmarks in London. It had been a while since our last visit to Tower Bridge, and we’d never taken the kids to The Monument, so we were looking forward to a great day out. The weather was perfect, so…

Moda Matchbox Quilt No. 3

Posted on March 29, 2019 by jenny

Last year I boldly stated that I wasn’t going to buy any new craft supplies until I had used up my overflowing stash. I’m afraid I broke my promise. Not only did I fail to plough through my stash and make everything, I also bought some new items. I’m beginning to think that I should…

A Mother’s Day craft {Cricut EasyPress 2 review}

Posted on March 27, 2019December 3, 2020 by jenny

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Cricut. The opinions and text are all mine. A few weeks ago I shared a post about my brand new Cricut Maker machine. It’s a lovely machine for people who love to craft their own items at home. You can cut all kinds of…

I don’t know about you, but I am counting down the days until I finish work for the Easter holidays. Although it hasn’t been a long time since half term it’s been busy and I can’t wait for a break from routine. The children seem to add more and more after school clubs every term…

Hunting snowdrops at Cliveden

Hunting snowdrops at Cliveden

Posted on March 24, 2019August 3, 2020 by jenny

A few weeks ago (this year is really flying by!) we decided to re-visit Cliveden, a local NT property. Cliveden has a wonderful history. The house itself is currently a private hotel so there is limited access, but you can explore the estate which consists of formal gardens and woodland walks, as well as the…

Free Mother’s Day colouring page for kids

Posted on March 21, 2019August 20, 2019 by jenny

What do you think of my Mother’s Day colouring page? My children just love colouring, especially after a busy day at school. As today is the first day of Spring I couldn’t wait to share my free colouring page with you. I love floral and hearts and this Mother’s Day colouring page is great all…
