We are going on our first trip abroad. The anxiety has kicked in but everyone is telling me it will be ok. Any toy recommendations for the plane etc? Someone posted about collecting nappies from boots at the airport, does anyone have experience with this? Any top tips? Tui holiday to Cyprus, flights are easy jet

My child informed me yesterday that he was told to sit in the office and not go to recess because he was play fighting with his friend. Should the school notify you when your child is disciplined, or is it normal practice to not inform parents? Do I need to say something? He missed his entire recess for play fighti...

My little girl will be 1 at the end of April and just thinking about a nice present for her. She can't walk yet but she loves standing. Do you think a toy role play kitchen would be a good present for a 1 year old? Or any other present ideas please 🙏

Hi ladies is world book day only today? My son attends nursery Monday and Fridays so we will miss the opportunity for him to bring in his favourite book and to dress up, does anyone else’s school or nursery celebrate it all the week and not just on the actual day? I’m worried to send him in dressed up tomorrow and h...

So my 4 year old son is still learning the sharing concept and is getting better. Today at playgroup my son had two babies (twins) and was laying them down for a nap with pillows and blankets he had only been playing with them for a few minutes when a mum walked over and asked can her daughter have one. I made him s...

Can anyone suggest any fun places to go or fun activities to do with a 9 Month old around the Guildford and surrounding area? I already do sensory and a few play cafes but wondering if there’s anything else!

My LG is so busy, and constantly needs stimulation- we do classes, swimming,soft play and parks but I’m wondering if anyone has any ideas that I can do with her at home besides playing with her toys (she plays for 15ish minutes and then just gets bored). Thank you xx

Can you attend?

What are your kids favourite toys / activities atm? Preferably not electronic

What activities outside of the house are you doing with your little ones other than going for a walk?

Hey, I have 2 kids and I’m completely at a loss on how to handle screen time. I see so much online about only doing one hour. I have relatives who let their kids watch it all the time and their kids are healthy. I’m not sure how to handle it with my son who is 2. We only watch age appropriate shows or movies. And it...

My boys are 2 & 3, they have a couple of hours first thing in the morning so allow me to get done what I need to. Then whilst my youngest naps my eldest has another hour or so. I feel guilty for it, but it’s mentally exhausting to be on the go with them all day long with no chill time 😥

Anybody got their little ones into anything? My daughter is very boisterous, so thinking of putting her into something but not sure what yet or when🩷

I’m posting twice today 🙈 The weather has been so good and I’ve been on amazing walks with my 5-month old. If any mamas around Plymouth centre/Hoe/RWY would like to join me, I would love to have a buddy!

I need some toy ideas that actually distract your baby for awhile it’s impossible for me to get anything done because my son just cries and whines when someone isn’t sitting with him🥲 all the toys I have now he’s chews on them looses interest

How are we entertaining our 6 months old for 2-2.5 hours in between naps 😅 my LO gets bored of everything within about 5 minutes! we already do a 1.5 hour walk in the morning but after that I just can’t seem to keep him entertained for more than 5 minutes.

Looking for activity ideas for 18 month old. We rarely use screen time and if we do it's a film or something for 20 mins. But I'm finding it hard thinking of things to do, I feel I want to do eveything to support development but get too caught up in the pressure to do lots of activities and I can't think of any. We...

Heya, Just wondering if anyone had any recommendations for fun days out with a 15 month old. It’s my birthday in a couple of weeks and I’m spending the day itself with my husband and LO. Would like to celebrate by doing something we’d all enjoy like the aquarium or London zoo or something but my little boy isn’t wa...
