Exciting Things To Do With Kids This Summer*
When the kids go back to school next week, they’ll only have one term left before the summer holidays, which means it’s time to get planning! Well for me any way. I live for the summer holidays when I get LM home every day for 6 weeks! Not only that but I’m not tied to school runs! These days you can’t just open your door and send your kids out to play all day, it’s just not safe, so it’s important to have some structured fun planned especially if you’re going to be around, you have to keep your sanity after all! So today I’ve come up with some ideas…

Summer 2017 in Squares
Summer officially ended for us on Wednesday when LM went back to school. I’m fairly sure actual summer ended weeks ago since the weather has been rubbish since the start of July. Typical isn’t it? As a summer round up I’m going to share some of my favourite Instagram photos from Little Miss’ summer holidays as well as a round up with what we got up to. I can’t believe 6 weeks are over already! I don’t know abou other parents but it definitely went way too fast for me! Distant Adventures At the very start of the summer holidays we headed off to visit Bee and her family. We…

Keeping Kids Entertained in the School Holidays*
If you live in England this week sees you half way through the summer holidays. Sad huh? Half the parents out there will be dreading the day they ship their precious little ones back to school (me), the other half can’t wait to watch their kids skip in and rush home to put the flags out (my sister). Unfortunately the weather just hasn’t been great this summer. Where I live it’s rained most days (yeah, I’m the idiot who left the washing out over night and it poured) and even if we do get some sun it’s just waiting to sneak attack you with more rain while you’re out having…

2015 Summer Seaside Festival
This weekend it was out local seaside festival. One of my favourite weekends of the whole summer, even more so this year because we had beautiful sunshine! My parents live in the village where it is held, just around the corner from the promenade. Little Miss loves it more with each passing year. I took my camera both days, Saturday I mainly photographed Little Miss and my nephew, however today my mum let me walk along child free so I could take some more photos to share on the blog. Typically today when I took my camera out properly the weather wasn’t half as nice and even threatened a thunderstorm…

Our Summer Bucket List*
Today is the first day of the six weeks summer holidays. I have been both dreading and feeling incredibly excited about this holiday. It’s LM’s first time ever being off for the whole lot since the past two years we’ve paid for her to attend pre-school but now because she’s on funding she doesn’t get anything towards her time there. The first two weeks are especially daunting because my parents are out of the country and I rely on my mum a lot, even just for adult company. So, to keep us going I’ve put together a bucket list for the summer with things we can do together (not including…
