Happy New Year
I don’t know about anyone else, but I don’t think it’s actually sunk in yet that we’re in a new year. 2025 went by so quickly I’m not sure I ever really found my feet, and as such all routine, consistency and in all honesty, any potential last year had to actually be “my year”…

Importance of routine
Is there anything quite like the school holidays to remind us how important routine is? I’m not sure about anyone else, but by the time we approach the end of the summer holidays it’s sort of a bitter sweet moment. Torn between the freedom and also the need for the routine. It’s not just the…

Blue Reef Aquarium- Newquay
You know if there’s an aquarium then we’re probably going to end up visiting it. There’s something so calming about them. Whatever else is going on, it’s like all your worries just fade away. Price Ticket prices are £15.15 for adults and £11.65 for kids. There are concessions for over 65s, those who require carers,…

Shrek’s Adventure- Review
I usually end these posts with my overall opinion. But in this case I’m going to start with it. If anyone was to ask me whether Shrek’s Adventure is worth visiting I’d say, absolutely!! It’s fun for all ages, and if you’re a Shrek fan you will absolutely not want to miss out on this…

Finding time for yourself
Even attempting to do a post on this seems a tad hypocritical. I’m always the first to remind anyone that they need time to themselves, but I always put myself last. I think it’s something as parents (particularly mothers) we do all too often. I say particularly mothers, because all I seem to hear from…

Sleepovers
I never really realised how controversial a topic sleepovers could be. It’s also a big step, whoever that sleepover is with. Not having your kids at home can be quite a difficult thing to deal with as a parent, particularly if you’re used to them being with you 24/7. There have been instances where the…

Chessington World of Adventures- Hotel review

Merlin Passes- Are they worth it?
If you’re looking for a definitive answer, I probably can’t give you one. I know, it makes this seem a little pointless. However, as someone who was debating Merlin Passes for years, I thought I’d share some things with you that helped in my decision and also things I’ve found since having the passes. Hopefully…

Warwick Castle Review
We’ve visited Warwick Castle twice recently, both very different visits, so I’ll try my best to cover all aspects. Warwick Castle at Christmas The first time we visited was just before Christmas. We decided to visit first of all without the kids, partly to have a day to ourselves whilst they were with their dad.…

Behaviour Update
I never intended on making this post, those of you that follow me on social media will know I generally do these updates on there. But I’ve tried to film this, and I just can’t seem to get the words out, or I end up going off on a tangent, or just completely breaking down.…
