More of this beautiful weather please. With the children beginning their summer holidays I am on the lookout for how best to keep them both active and creative. I’m delighted to announce I will be working with BEAR Nibbles over the coming months, as BEAR really understands how to make being healthy a little bit…
Our Summer holiday fun continued with a donut decorating and activity workshop today. After a pretty dull trip to Ikea (more kitchen research) we hopped on the tube to the West End. Our destination was a donut decorating workshop with Vicky’s Donuts to celebrate the release of Nine Lives which is out on the 18th…
I was so excited to receive an invitation for the family to attend the press performance of The Tiger Who Came to Tea, a musical adaptation of the classic picture book by Judith Kerr.

Although I’ve been ferrying them around I’m happy there are no after school clubs or evening activities to go to.

They are great for having family time and we’ve found after dinner is the perfect time for us all to sit…
Our homemade mud kitchen has been getting a lot of use this year. To mix it up a little I thought I would set up an invitation to play for my children, using some of the treasure we brought back from the beach earlier this year. Every year we try to have a holiday by…
For me one of the best things about being a blogger is the chance to work with some of my favourite brands. I’ve worked with Cath Kidston a few times now and was so excited to receive an invitation to their Autumn Winter 2016 Press Preview. I really enjoy press shows. I only go to…
