So that's it. Half term is officially over, and it's back to school in the morning. The school break appears to have absolutely flown by, but we've had a jam packed week full of activities including trampolining, crafting, trips to the park and watching Coco, which in...
We've all seen the headlines. The scaremongering and the warnings. The cold snap is set to return. Whilst March might be on it's way, it seems the spring weather is, sadly, not, with another period of freezing temperatures and potential snowfall set to return next...
Today was a lovely yet emotional day. The penultimate day of half term and a days annual leave for me, I headed to the cinema with my eldest daughter - our first one on one date since before she started school. We walked, hand in hand from the car park, her skipping...
Erin is a huge fan of PJ Masks, and it has become a regular TV choice for Erin whilst she is eating her breakfast before school in the mornings! I can definitely see the appeal, just in the way banana man used to change into a superhero back in the 80's (showing my...

Erin is a huge fan of Paw Patrol, and has been for quite some time now! We have followed the series on Nick Jr since the beginning, and Erin has watched with excitement at the arrival of every new episode and character. To accompany the series, the toys have been...
Back in my twenties, before I had children, I always imagined the type of mother I would be. I had it all planned out in my head. I would be the Mum who enjoyed playtime and craft, who spent hours making fantastic creations with the children, and at weekends, the Mum...
Having been a huge fan of Hatchimals from the beginning, Erin was super egg'cited (eggs'cuse the pun!!) when Spinmaster launched their collectible spin off - Hatchimals CollEGGtibles last April. With prices at just pocket money prices, these fun and interactive eggs...
