The Bumbo Multi Seat: Floor Seat & High Chair in One

March 14, 2018

Mealtimes are interesting when you have a weaning toddler.  Food becomes a guessing game: what do you offer them?  How much will they eat?  How much should they eat?  And you can always expect at least half of any meal to end up on the […]

Baby Bath Time with Child’s Farm Skincare

January 19, 2018

Bath time is a highly anticipated activity in this house.  Not least by myself (what frazzled mum doesn’t love a good soak in the tub?), but of course, the littlest man himself.  It may be a daily ritual but with a menagerie of flashing frogs and half […]

The Easytots ‘EasyMat’ | Stress-free Dinner Time & Easier Weaning

January 5, 2018

When your baby starts eating proper food you realise how messy dinner times can be. Whatever the food, it ends up everywhere: down the high chair, beneath the high chair, applied to the face more successfully than eaten, and, somehow, finds its way into the […]

Rain doesn’t stop play around here 🤪 🌧️ Rain doesn’t stop play around here 🤪 🌧️ 🌈 We’ve put our @englishheritage membership to good use and visited SO MANY places over the summer holiday. There’s been new pop badges released which Reuben has enjoyed collecting ALL of!  He’s also done the various trails which have been fun, and he achieved the coveted 2nd, 4th and 6th visit badges completing his summer ‘passport’. I think he’s chuffed!

So here’s yesterday’s day of play - Helmsley castle. Helmsley was my late Dad’s birthplace and stomping ground. Can’t visit here without feeling that connection. It threw it down with rain before the most glorious rainbow came out. 😌 🌈

Still on the school holiday adventure train with l Still on the school holiday adventure train with loads of photos to share from days out places, so just gonna dump yesterday’s shenanigans right now. 

A visit to the National Space Centre in Leicester, on our way back from a Legoland trip. 🚀 

This place was awesome! A bit of an information overload (I found) but it was all so interesting. Reubs loved the interactive bits like the mini Hadron Collider and a Q&A screen that went through the mathematical distances between us and each part of the universe.  Mind blowing stuff. We had a late lunch literally beneath a massive rocket which was pretty cool and finished off with a ‘sky at night’ show in the Sir Patrick Moore Planetarium. Could’ve spent longer as it was great, however it could be improved too. Some of the displays could do with updating in terms of ‘00s aesthetics and silly bits about girls being made of stardust and then the alien bit is a bit dubious. And I definitely think there’s room for more artefacts, like it’d be amazing to see moon rock or something from space, or even see what life is like in the international space station. How do they wash in space? Do they grow plants? That’d be interesting.

Has anyone else been here?  What did you think of it? 🤔 We’ll definitely return but not sure if it’s worth the 2hour drive on its own when there’s The Centre for Life in Newcastle with a very good space area.

Now that’s what I call a holiday! 🏝️👙☀ Now that’s what I call a holiday! 🏝️👙☀️
Exciting, first time thrills, hot, SO HOT, breath-taking, nausea-inducing, amazing, beautiful, sweaty and a terrifying experience all in one. So many thoughts and takeaways from our first proper family holiday (never been anywhere longer than 3 days, never abroad). The Greek island of Rhodes was an experience alright. Think I need to write a blog about this one! But yes, the post-holiday come down is happening, I’m a bit sad, and I’ve LOADS of photos to share. 😄
