Last week we were invited to a very special ‘Kids in the Kitchen’ party with Nigel Clarke in London. I’ve mentioned a few times how much my children enjoy collecting and playing with Num Noms so they were very excited to be invited to this special Num Noms Series 5 launch event. Can you believe…
Have you been planning for Father’s Day which falls later this month? I love treating my husband, although I have to admit he can be a little tricky to buy for. Generally he is happy with handmade Father’s Day cards and a cup of tea in bed, which is great because, let’s be realistic, there’s…

Are you enjoying the Bank Holiday weekend? We’ve escaped London for a few days in the country and I was really happy to have a new book to take with me to read. I love to read but have to admit that my brain is usually a little frazzled after a day with the kids…
Half term just isn’t half term without a visit to family in Wiltshire. We’re really lucky that my mum lives in a sweet little Wiltshire village, close to the border with Somerset, and within easy access to some lovely family-friendly days out. If you’re looking for days out with the kids around Bradford-on-Avon then here…
