5 Ways Passive Smoking Can Affect Your Child’s Health*
One of the many reasons why my daughter’s father was no good for us was even after promising the health visitor he’d quit smoking as soon as she’d gone he tell me he had no intention to. I pleaded with him knowing how harmful it was to our baby but in his head passive smoking wasn’t going to cause any harm, how wrong he was. Keeping your kids healthy and happy is a sharing concern to every parent. There’s nothing more satisfying than watching your kids growing up healthy and strong, and parents can move mountains to achieve it. But sometimes, we do things that seem unharmful, when the reality…

Lelli Kelly School Shoes at Jake Shoes Review
I can’t believe we’re almost half way through Little Miss’ last term of her first year at school. Although I’m so excited that I’ll have her off for a whole 6 weeks, I know during that time I’ll have to think about buying her new school uniform during that time. A stress and expense every parent dreads! At the moment with Little Miss being in the lower end of school the only thing I need to get that’s branded is her school jumper or cardigan, everything else can be unbranded which does save money. However LM does so much crafting at school I need to have at least 3 cardigans,…

Tales As Old As Time Afternoon Tea at The Kensington Hotel Review
On Monday 22nd May I took the train down to London to have afternoon tea with my best friend Bee. Not just any afternoon tea, because why would we go all the way to London for that? No, we went to have the almost famous Beauty and the Beast inspired afternoon tea at The Kensington Hotel. The Tales as Old as Time afternoon tea is held in The Town House at The Kensington Hotel, it’s possibly the most coveted afternoon tea in the country at the moment and we were lucky to get a booking for May only the week before Bee’s birthday. I hear it’s now completely booked up…

The #DayOutForAll Campaign – Alnwick Gardens*
Being a single mother (wow I say that a lot) means I spend a lot of time with my parents and immediate family. I moved back home so I could have help while Little Miss was a baby, and I’m staying for the time being so members of my family can have her in their life. I lost both my grandfathers in short sucession and it really was a wake up call, I wanted LM to know all our family before it was too late. Of course this means we have a lot of family days out. Days out should be for all members of the family, including those with…

The Disney Store at 30
This year, while I celebrated turning 29, The Disney Store celebrated their 30th. The first store opened on March 28th 1987 in Glendale, California but it would be a few years before the first one appeared in the UK which opened in London the November of 1990. Ever since then they’ve been a fantastic treat to find in many cities across the UK, There are currently 42 stores across the UK and you can guarentee whenever LM and I are near one we’ll be popping in. The Cast Members and displays make it a magical place to be and we always get our Disney fix. As you can guess, Disney…

John Frieda 7 Day Luxurious Volume Range Review
It’s been a while since my last beauty review, but I’m well and truly into the parenting groove these days. I pretty much live without make up on, dry shampooing my hair for about a week while wearing leggings and oversized t-shirts or sweaters on a daily basis. Now I have the daily school run at 8:25 each day looking half decent is right out the window. Especially since LM isn’t the most motivated of children in the morning. Fear not, I have a review of a fab range from John Frieda today that has basically finally solved a hair problem that’s been plaguing me for the last year. In…
