Anyone who knows me well will tell you I’m an awful cook with exception to my homemade vegetable soup – it’s whopper if I do say so myself. If I was to be completely honest, I would say I don’t really enjoy cooking at all – for me, it’s a chore. And then of course with four smallies I struggle to find meals they will all eat. (more…)
Earlier this summer we were very kindly invited to discover and explore Paradise Wildlife Park, a family-run animal park located in Broxbourne in Hertfordshire. Paradise Wildlife Park is different from your average zoo or animal park, they have DINOSAURS. So, of course, I jumped at the chance and added to our list of adventures. (more…)
There comes a time in your parenting life when you come to terms with never wanting to see a labour ward ever again, right? (more…)
What a summer. Lads it was non-stop. I got a childminder for it though, my guardian angel as my friends know her by. I swear, I would not have got through it without her. Summer was jam-packed, without a doubt my favourite to date. (more…)
Earlier this month we visited Tipperary for the first time thanks to Tipperary Tourism on behalf on www.mykidstime.com. It’s not somewhere I’d ever think of holidaying with a young family but I have to put it on the map as a family-friendly destination for a staycation in Ireland because we had an absolute blast.

Absolutely no theme park will beat Paultons Parks, Peppa Pig World – it’s insane and I’m not even Peppa’s biggest fan. Let’s start by saying there are not enough hours in a day especially with smallies who want to go on absolutely everything but we were lucky. We went midweek as part of our UK road trip in July and luckily the kids were still in school so it worked in our favour. The best time to go to any UK theme park is the first two weeks of July, preferably midweek. (more…)
Last month we travelled by sea to do a theme park marathon across the UK for our summer holiday. We spent four nights in Bluestone and ventured out twice, one of those days we stopped by The Dinosaur Park in Tenby. A dream for any dinosaur mad family, like ourselves. The boy lives and breathes dinosaurs and we fed his addiction this summer with a trip The Dinosaur Park, Paradise Wildlife Park and Paulton Park. (more…)
I honestly don’t know where to start. Diggerland is basically where young and old can ride, drive and operate real full-sized construction machinery. There was dirt diggers, giant diggers, dumper trucks and mini tractors amongst many other digger themed attractions. (more…)
For some, the idea of travelling with kids can be overwhelming but it’s not as scary as you might think. Don’t let the fear of the unknown hold you back. Get out with the kids, explore, be adventurous – make the most of the summers with them, even if that means a staycation and camping in a field somewhere. I’ve teamed up with Goodies Organix to share my top tips when it comes to travelling with kids, young boisterous kids at that. (more…)
Earlier this month Bluestone Wales invited us to experience their eco-friendly 5* resort situated in Pembrokeshire. Bluestone offers luxury wooden lodges and cosy cottages in a modern holiday lodge set in the picturesque landscape of West Wales, the only coastal National Park in the UK. It’s a family resort with a ridiculous amount of activities to enjoy. (more…)
