    February 11, 2025 /

    New year, new you, right? It’s not for everyone. In fact, I find January’s far too stressful to try healthy eating with trying to balance money, my tax return and my daughter’s birthday right at the end! But I want to get into a healthy mindset in February so I’m already researching what I need to know about healthy food and drink trends in 2025; Healthy DrinkingAnd for once I mean alcohol. Usually being more health conscious and calorie counting doesn’t go well with a taste for liquor… However, 2025 is looking at a new trend of healthy drinking.

    Making Travel More Affordable*

    February 11, 2025 /

    Most people love to travel, yet it can be an expensive pastime, particularly if you’re travelling with a young family, as travelling solo is expensive enough yet with kids in tow the price mounts up pretty quickly.  Of course, there are often reduced child prices for aspects such as meals and tickets to theme parks, but children have an incredible ability to encourage you to buy pretty much anything and everything they see, with no appreciation of the financial strain it incurs. Of course, as a parent, you want to offer your child the best, and particularly when it comes to holidays you want them to have what they crave.…

    5 Other People to Celebrate on Valentines Day*

    February 11, 2025 /

    In the past I’ve popped up a post with some ideas of ways to treat yourself this V Day, if you’re single and today I thought i’d expand on that by sharing 5 other people you could celebrate on Valentines Day. Although it’s driven home that Valentines Day is a special day in the year for couples to express their love for one another, but to me, if you’re in the right relationship, that’s every day. Instead, I try to view Valentines as a day to celebrate other people you love. Parks and Recs have raised the profile of Galentines Day which falls on the 13th February and it’s about…

    Five Moral Values You Should Explore With Your Kids*

    February 10, 2025 /

    There’s a lot more to being a parent than putting a roof over your child’s head and making sure they eat. You also have to help them grow into a good person so that they can be successful both in and out of school. Many people who have faith in their life may seem like their at an advantage, but as the world changes that isn’t the case.

    Children’s Uniforms Through Time*

    February 9, 2025 /

    In the UK, wearing an outfit individual to a particular school is not a modern idea. The first noted “uniform” was declared by The Archbishop of Canterbury in 1222 that students had to don a certain robe called a “cappa clausa” and Christ’s Hospital School in Horsham which first opened in 1552 adopted a uniform for its pupils back in the 16th century! So let’s have a look at the changing face of school uniforms and how they compare to what children wear today. 19th Century In the 1800s, The Elementary Education Act of 1870 made education available to all pupils in England and Wales.
