Walt Disney World April 2015, Day 8 – Hollywood Studios & Magic Kingdom
So, in 24 days we’ll be off back to Florida and I’ve still got another three days of our last trip diary to post. OOPS! Where has the time gone? I’m not sure if anyone will read this, it’s definitely more for my own benefit now so I can look back and compare what we got up to on what days and at what parks as LM grows. I expect every trip to be different so by blogging about each day will be a nice account to keep. I got up to day 8, our second Monday and our second to last full day. We started at Hollywood Studios but…

How To Make The School Holidays Special For Your Kids*
As a mum, I always want to do what’s best for my daughter, and that includes during the summer holidays. While us parents love having our little ones home with us, at times it can get pretty stressful. However, even if the holidays are stressful for us mums, we need to ensure that they are special for our kids. All year long our children look forward to the summer holidays, and when they finally arrive, they want to make the most of them. That’s why we need to ensure that the summer holidays are as fun and memorable for our children as possible. When your child returns to school, he…

Learning about Lending Works
We all have those times where we’re a little bit strapped for cash. Maybe you’ve been paid late, or an unexpected bill, or maybe you stupidly turned all your money into dollars a week before your holiday meaning you had nothing to live on for that week… Oh wait, that’s just me.. And this is where Lending Works come in to help, finding you a loan with a better rate than you would find if you went through a bank. Firstly a little background information. Lending Works was started in 2012 by Nicholas Harding and Matthew Powell, both of which come from a background in money. In 2015 the company…

LM’s Library Books, Week 2
Carrying on with our library visits as part of our summer bucketlist, last time LM convinced me into 9 books with a total of 10 stories (one book had 2 stories in, meaning two nights worth of reading). Plus I was away two nights meaning it’s been a while since our last trip to the library. Each book is stamped for a month and since we can take 15 books (I know, right?) I see no sense in going back until we’ve read all the ones we have at home. So we finally took another trip on Friday before we met Bee & her daughter’s off the train. So we…

Travel Content // Excellent Ideas for Family Holidays Everyone Will Enjoy*
When I plan my family holidays, I have to get organised well in advance. Choosing a holiday that’s suitable for both me and my daughter isn’t easy. I have to think about her first, but try and fit in some things I want to see and do too. It’s a family holiday, after all, not a kids’ holiday! Some parents struggle to find a balance where both the children and parents get to have their own fun. Mums and dads love spending time with our children. But it doesn’t mean we want to spend the whole time riding roller-coasters. Don’t worry if you’re not a fan of family-fun parks and…
