Sylvanian Families Halloween decoration

Sylvanian Families Halloween wreath decoration

Posted on October 30, 2017 by jenny

Today we were walking to school and my children berated me for our lack of Halloween decorations! I was pretty loathe to give up my day decorating, especially as I thought the Halloween decorations I picked up a few weeks ago in poundworld were brilliant. Clearly I needed to up my game to impress the 5…

Monday mindfulness {5 happy things}

Posted on October 30, 2017 by jenny

Half term just flew by for me. It was lovely to go away for the whole week and we caught up with all my family which was brilliant. I had been super organised and pre-written all my blog posts which meant I hardly spent any time on my laptop all week. I even found time…

Hot Wheels Track Builder Stunt Bridge Kit review

Posted on October 29, 2017December 21, 2018 by jenny

It’s been a while since we reviewed any Hot Wheels sets but today we have a brilliant one to share with you. Both my children have always loved toy cars. They are always close to hand in the living room and I love the different ways my children play with them. We have a few…

Snazaroo Halloween event at KidZania London

Posted on October 29, 2017 by jenny

Today we were invited along to KidZania at Westfield London to experience their Snazaroo Halloween event. My kids adore KidZania so we were delighted to go along. KidZania is an indoor city run by kids, giving kids the opportunity to try out over 60 activities for themselves. We went along this morning and managed to…

Miffy Sugar Skull gingerbread biscuits

Posted on October 28, 2017 by jenny

I had a really silly idea a few weeks ago and it took me a long time to get round to making it. Half term has been busy and so much fun, but I’ve missed my crafting time with the kids being off school. My 5 year old adores Miffy (so do I). We have…

Dear Zoo Story Stones

Posted on October 27, 2017October 27, 2017 by jenny

“I wrote to the zoo to send me a pet. So they sent me an ….” Thus begins our favourite book! It’s a children’s picture book classic and a very respectable 35 years old. It seems a very long time ago since I took a very young Big Brother and Little Sis off to Macmillan…

10 {more} Sylvanian Families crafts for kids to make

Posted on October 26, 2017 by jenny

Today my daughter spent some of her pocket money on a new Sylvanian Families toy to add to her collection. She loves the cute little babies and and bought the Sylvanian Families Double Pushchair. She’s definitely going through a huge SF phase at the moment. I couldn’t be happier because it’s an adorable range for her to…

PJ Masks Time to Be a Hero DVD

Posted on October 24, 2017August 11, 2019 by jenny

My 5 year old has recently become a fan of PJ Masks. I ignored this for a while but since she started quizzing me on their names and catchphrases, I sat and watched an episode with her and feel that I now know more than I need to about PJ Masks. When Connor, Amaya and…

Are you keeping your kids occupied over half term? The weather hasn’t been too bad considering the time of year and we’ve been able to get out and about. It’s lovely to come home and snuggle up with a film and we whipped up some easy Halloween bark to enjoy whilst watching the new PJ…
