Last weekend we were lucky to receive an invitation to ZSL London. Who doesn’t love a trip to the zoo? Even better, not only did we have the chance to see some of our favourite animals, we were also lucky to celebrate the launch of the second season of Vampirina on Disney Junior and have…

Keeping the kids busy at Legoland Windsor
It’s one of our family traditions that during the Summer holidays we’ll have a trip to Legoland Windsor. This year 365 Tickets kindly gifted us a family ticket so we could visit this weekend. I was a bit worried about spending all day outdoors but we packed water, hats, more water and sun tan lotion…
A visit to Wolferton Railway Station, Norfolk
Today I wanted to tell you about a really special place we visited whilst on holiday in North Norfolk. We visited earlier this year and the weather was actually cold. I’m not a huge fan of all this hot weather, I’m far happier to wear loads of layers in the cold! Anyway, my mum used…
Great days out with Capri-Sun Original range {with 50% Less Sugar!}
My children are really enjoying the mini-heatwave we’re currently experiencing. I have to admit that my fair English skin is struggling but with two kids full of energy we are making the most of the good weather by getting out and about. Our family calendar is booked with play dates, picnics and parties which is…

Orla Kiely: A Life in Pattern {Fashion and Textile Museum}
Today I finally got to visit the Orla Kiely: A Life in Pattern exhibition at the Fashion and Textile Museum in Bermondsey. I’ve been a huge fan of Orla Kiely for about 15 years and have a growing collection of handbags, bedding and homeware. The only thing I’ve not really bought into is her clothing range. Even if…
A visit to Dinosaurs in the Wild, Greenwich Peninsula, London
My 6 year old is just crazy about dinosaurs so it wasn’t hard to accept an invitation to Dinosaurs in the Wild on the Greenwich Peninsula, London. We don’t often go to this side of London but it didn’t take long on the Underground and before we knew it we were blinking in the sunshine at…
8 farms to visit within easy reach of West London
Any one starting to worry how to keep the kids busy over the Summer holidays? I have to admit that panic is starting to kick in. I’ve booked quite a few things but that doesn’t stop me trying to come up with ideas for some of the days we’ll be spending at home. I love…
A great family day out at Pensthorpe Natural Park
Although our holiday in Norfolk was a few weeks ago I haven’t managed to write up half the places we managed to visit. Today I wanted to tell you about Pensthorpe Natural Park which was recommended to us by someone we got chatting too. I hadn’t heard of Pensthorpe but it was one of our favourite family…
