How do you take your 21 month walking?

I mean, further distances like up little hills/mountains in the lakes kinda style. He's a great little walker and loves walking around the park and the local area but I know it would be too much for us to walk further. The last proper walk we did was with LO in a front baby carrier, but he's that long now that his...

Walking after CSection

Hey, I'm 8 days PP after my elective CSection and I was wondering if it would be okay to go for a short walk to my local High Street (about 15mins - so no more than an hour, there and back and looking round the shops) - Would this be too much, I don't want to over exert myself but I really want to get out the house ...

Kids club

My toddler (20 months) is obsessed with throwing anything and of course balls. He loves kicking, rolling, throwing, aiming and is really good at it. I think it would be amazing signing him up for some toddler club where he gets to develop this and find some outlet. Do you have any ideas?

Is Elsa too Disney? 🇬🇧

I keep going back to the name Elsa and think it’s a lovely name. However someone has pointed out the association with frozen and now I’m worried it’s a bit too Disney? Honest opinions please.

What do you do to entertain your child?

Nothing I do seems to make my son happy for more than 5-10 minutes. We go outside for walks but I can't do that all day. We opened an early Christmas present and that didn't last long. I do play with him but I start getting bored quickly when I normally switch with my husband when it's too much but he leaves for a t...
