8 Reasons to subscribe to kids comic The Phoenix

21st November 202021st November 2020
phoenix comic review

Athena has been getting weekly post recently in the form of The Phoenix,  which has been dropping onto the doormat addressed just to her! She’s has been really enjoying flicking through the pages of each copy and reading the comics inside.  The Phoenix is a full colour comic designed especially for kids and after a… Read More

Osmo Detective Agency Review

14th November 202014th November 2020

One of the things I feel is really important for our children  to understand more about  is  other people and parts of the world.  Our world is so diverse and  finding out more about it is something I’ve always loved doing, though when I was a child this was learning via encyclopedias and tv  documentaries… Read More

Giveaway: Win a Swizzels Sweets Hamper in time for Halloween!

7th October 202021st October 2020
Swizzels hamper giveaway1

This is a  paid  post in collaboration with Swizzels. Halloween may not  be the same this year in terms of staying socially distant, which will mean no Halloween parties and  probably only going trick or treating to houses   of friends and possibly at set times you don’t overlap with others! We’re thinking about inviting a… Read More

Present Pets – Toy Review

30th September 202030th September 2020

My  children love to watch ‘unboxing’ videos,   so a toy  that unboxes itself was definitely something I thought they’d really love. Present Pets unbox themselves  from inside the box, with noises and movement and little paw print shaped holes gradually appearing in the box until it opens up to reveal the mystery  pet!   There are… Read More

Lascal Maxi Buggy Board on Silver Cross Pioneer

22nd September 20204th February 2021

What’s the solution when you’ve got a baby in the buggy and a toddler who demands to walk and then at some unspecified time later just cannot walk one step further and digs her heels in to the pavement refusing to move an inch? A Lascal Maxi buggy board! We’ve been using the Lascal Maxi… Read More

Coding for kids made fun with Osmo

16th September 202014th October 2020
Osmo kids coding app review

Coding sounds scary, when I first heard that it would be included in the curriculum for kids I had visions of kids sat working out tricky lines of computer code. It’s actually very different to that and now I get to see it first hand with the Osmo Coding Kit. If you’re not sure what… Read More

Review: Lascal Maxi Plus Buggy Board with Saddle Seat

13th September 20204th February 2021
lascal buggy board maxi saddle

We are already firm fans of the Lascal Buggy Board and used it on our single buggy instead of bothering with an unwieldy double buggy. I found that even though Athena wasn’t quite two when Arlo arrived with the buggy board, sling and pushchair I could manage every situation, even if they both wanted a… Read More

Review: Keen Shoes for Kids & Adults

3rd September 20203rd September 2020

Finding sandals that look good,  go with everything and are comfortable enough to wear all day is like looking for a needle in a haystack – but I think I’ve  found  that shoe-shaped needle!  These  are the ‘Elle Backstrap’ Keen sandals – and not only do they match my requirements but they  are consciously created … Read More

Treads School Shoe review

31st July 202031st July 2020

Although school  seems like a distant memory  for Athena it’s only a matter of weeks  until she’s back  at school, a new junior school in fact!  So that means new uniform, bag and shoes! This year she’ll be wearing Treads ‘Alberta’ shoes, which are a leather mary-jane style with a velcro strap, which is her preferred style.… Read More

Black Deer Festival day one: exploring, hammering, buying hats & bandanas, good music, suncream, water, cider, friendly people, guitar lessons, slack lining, pebble painting, art, dressing up, tasty food, motorbikes, face painting and hanging out as a family together 💞

Awesome music from yesterday: Jake Bugg, The Cuban Brothers, James, Jinda Biant & Get Cape, Wear Cape, Fly.

Gradually adding plants to every corner of the hou Gradually adding plants to every corner of the house. I never really buy flowers but I do love it when someone gives me a bunch, these tulips were a week old but going strong still 🌷🌼💐 of course it took me till a few days after they started dropping petals to actually get rid of them... But nobody is perfect, least of all me!

"boy with scabby knees and cat" This is the firs "boy with scabby knees and cat" 

This is the first time Claude has stayed sat on anyone's lap for months. He's really not a very snuggly cat and despite Arlo being the fastest\loudest\most disinterested member of the household in cats he was the chosen one 🙄

🎉NINE YEARS OLD💞 Athena turned 9 yesterday, 🎉NINE YEARS OLD💞
Athena turned 9 yesterday, which was a pretty good day to have a birthday. Preceded by a week off for half term, a four day celebratory weekend, a whole day celebrating with your best friend who turns 10 on the same day and then being at school for everyone to sing happy birthday! After school we went to the park where Athena finally got over her fear of climbing the really tall climbing frame thing (then did it loads just to make sure she still could) 🙌
Swipe for her 1st  birthday too, just because 😍
