A family Games Night With Little Tikes

AD - Review Items. 


Now that all three children are at school and the other half no longer works weekends we always make the most of the weekends and Saturday night is always family night. We often watch a film, enjoy some treats or a Saturday night take away and just enjoy spending time together. 
 

So when Little Tikes got in touch and asked if we would like to take part in a kids vs adults game challenge we thought this sounded perfect. We were sent two new Little Tikes games to play, Crazy Toaster and Hot Hoops.

School Ready With Bassetts Vitamins

AD - Paid Post. 


This September my only just turned four-year-old little boy started school, just like his two big sisters. Obviously, as he has only just turned four I am a little worried about how he is going to cope with full-time school, being one of the youngest in his year group. We really hope he gets off to a good start and enjoys school as much as his two sisters have done. 

During the past week, I have been giving him and his five-year-old sister the recently launched Bassetts Vitamins Omega-3 + Multivitamins orange flavour pastels. Each soft and chewy vitamin contains Vitamin B6 which helps support normal psychological function and Vitamin B5 which contributes to mental performance, helping children feel ready for the new academic year.

Prestige Christmas Hamper Review

AD - Review Item. 


 Last year we were lucky enough to receive a Christmas hamper from Prestige and this year we were lucky enough to be sent another one to review. 

We were sent the Traditional Gift basket, which is exactly how you would imagine a Christmas hamper to be. A dark wicker basket with leather look handles and fastening makes this hamper look luxurious and oh so traditional. When the basket looks this good you know you're in for a treat before you even open it and discover the contents inside.

At the grand old age of 34 years of age, I have decided to learn to drive. Since having my children I have felt isolated and a bit left out not being able to drive, always having to rely on lifts or catch multiple buses to get to where I want to go.

A Family Lunch At Las Iguanas

AD - Invited. 

 
We were  kindly invited along to Las Iguanas on Grey Street in Newcastle (just down from the Theatre Royal) to try out the new menu with the children. It is not somewhere I would have thought to take the children before but we found it really family friendly.

National Citizen Service For 16-17 Year Old's This Autumn

AD - Paid Post 

Edit - National Citizen Service (NCS) stopped in 2025. 


My eldest daughter is turning sixteen soon and is in her final year of secondary school and will be taking her GCSE exams in the summer. After school she is still not entirely sure what she wants to do just yet. 

This is where National Citizen Service comes in, you may remember I wrote about NCS back in the spring, if you missed it you can read it here. NCS is a government back programme for 16-17 years olds to take part in that helps prepare teens for life after school, with team building exercises, a residential trip that will help teach life skills and a community action based project to help the teens of today become better citizens.

10 Reasons To Visit Pirates Village Hotel In Majorca



Pirates Village is a family-friendly hotel based in Santa Ponsa, Majorca. We visited back in May with our three children aged 3,4 and 15.  I have previously written a review of the hotel and a post all about the all-inclusive food and drink at the hotel . We had such a wonderful holiday at Pirates Village and I would recommend it to anyone with children aged 3-10 as it is ideal for children in this age group.

Disney On Ice Presents Dream Big Review

AD - Review.

Disney on Ice is back in town with this years show Dream Big and we headed along to see the show for ourselves on opening night (on Tuesday). No matter how many times we have seen Disney on Ice we always enjoy the show and find it rather magical, this year was no exception - in fact, I think I would go as far as to say it was probably my favourite show to date! 

The show started at 6.30pm and Tinkerbell burst onto the stage closely followed by Mickey, Minnie and the gang to get the packed audience up on their feet and dancing for the warm-up.
