Days Out in England – KidZania, London
Since we have no big holiday booked this year I’m trying to make 2017 the year of mini adventures. So far we’ve been to Disneyland Paris and last month we went to visit my best friend Bee which included a trip to the cinema to see Beauty and the Beast. I know for a lot of people that isn’t really an adventure but our local cinema isn’t even SHOWING the movie yet so for us going to a cinema to see a newly released movie is a big adventure. This past weekend we ventured to London for the first time (the only time LM has ever been to London is…

Why Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them Rekindled my Love for the Wizarding World
Imagine, a little 10 year old Hermione Granger type, stepping into her school library looking for a way to avoid going outside during break time. She goes to the new releases and picks up a shiny new copy of a book that would probably change her life; Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. She sits down and starts to read. She was transported into this new world, a world of magic (and lets face it, as a kid already into Disney she was open to this sort of thing) and she was lost. Obviously it was me. I anticipated every book release, the later ones I was there to pick…

Looking Back on March 2017
Is that March over already? I’m glad that this year is moving quickly because between our trips every day life sucks. It was my birthday this month and I turned 29, yep 29. One year off 30. I don’t think I took it well and I did a fair amount of crying. I really wanted to be okay about it but I’m not. Maybe one day I’ll get back to loving every day life like I used to but right now, I just don’t. So March, not only did I celebrated my birthday, which was nice in it’s own way and I was truly spoilt but it was Mothers Day,…

Unusual Things To Do In London*
If you’ve never visited London, you’re missing out. Perhaps you did visit, but you spent time doing standard ‘touristy’ things that pretty much everybody does. You need to branch out! The great thing about London is that it literally has something for everybody. There are so many diverse cultures to be found here, and you can feel like you’re in a completely different place depending on what part you’re in. If you want to come up with some unique things to do in London, then check out these ideas: Go To Brick Lane Market Everybody has heard of Camden market, because that’s pretty much where everybody goes. That doesn’t mean…

Travel Content // A Whole New World*
There is a beautiful song in Aladdin which starts with the words “I could show you the world, shining, shimmering splendor” and this song does touch the hearts of so many. Taking the opportunity to show your children the world is one of the greatest gifts you can give them when they are a child. You need to ensure you are choosing age appropriate trips; younger children will prefer seeing America via Disney Parks whereas older teenagers might enjoy a week in Italy looking at galleries. Unfortunately, there aren’t many of us who have a flying carpet, which means traveling becomes a pretty expensive business. Especially once your children have…

Disney Confessions Part 2
Over a year ago now there was a Disney Confessions type post making the rounds and I took part in it sharing my deepest darkest opinions on all things Disney and today I’m back with more. I had always intended on doing a second (and maybe third) confessions post and even marked my original one as part one and here I am! I’m fairly sure some of these are “unpopular opinions” but I kinda don’t care, these are my own personal opinions but I’d love to hear yours! Emma Watson really wasn’t Belle for me For me, she was the weakest part of the whole movie. In acting, singing and…
