We’ve been taking inspiration from those cute little Trolls recently. We’ve seen the trailer for the new Trolls film a few times and enjoyed playing with the new Poppy Style Station which we recently reviewed. I thought it would be fun to bake and decorate Trolls gingerbread biscuits so found a cookie cutter online and…
Here in the South of England we’ve been experiencing a mini heatwave. My daughter is only doing half days at school this week as she settles in so we’ve had some amazing afternoon playdates in the sunshine. All this makes today’s crafty post a little strange to write as we’ve started our Halloween crafting! Yep,…
We’re pretty big Disney fans here. My 4 year old loves her Disney Princesses and Sofia the First is one of her favourites. What’s not to like about the magical world of Sofia the First, the little girl who learns that behaving like a princess has to come from the heart? My 4 year old…
Since my children came along I have enjoyed reading the stories by Julia Donaldson as much as my children have. Yesterday I heard that the latest book to be animated is The Highway Rat and will be screened at Christmas 2017. That feels like quite a long time so I was also pretty pleased to…

Aside from crafting with my children I love to indulge my hobby of sewing but…
Avebury is a Neolithic henge monument containing three stone circles, around the pretty village of Avebury in Wiltshire. It also happens to be between my Mum’s house and ours so we often stop off on the way home. Exploring Avebury Stone Circle with children is a great day out as there is so much to…
It’s been a while since I shared a vintage find here. I still love charity shopping but as my children get older (and there is no more room for toys!), I’m able to focus on the things I want for myself a bit more. I love vintage games as they are fun to craft with….
Last week we received a special invitation from Disney On Ice to attend an exclusive VIP Fit To Dance class event with Disney On Ice skaters and Disney On Ice super fan Peter Andre! I’m not sure my children know who Peter Andre is but I quite like him so off we went to the Dominion Theatre in…
