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…
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…
I love Halloween. Have I said that enough lately? I love coming up with Halloween crafts and I’m not sure what’s more fun – Halloween crafting or seeing my kids faces when they discover what I’ve been up to! Every day at pick up they ask me for a snack. It’s now fully ingrained in…

Today I’m joining up with some other bloggers and taking part in a Halloween Blog Hop organised…
My children are all about painted rocks at the moment. It’s the latest craze and they are fully embracing it! Have you heard about painted rocks? It’s quite simple, people are decorating and hiding painted rocks! This is great fun for adults and children, and pretty cheap too. I recently bought a big bag of…
Am I allowed to admit we’re getting excited for Halloween in our house? Yesterday I couldn’t resist buying the kids new Halloween t-shirts and picking up some fun craft supplies.
