Half term ideas in North West London

Wondering if anyone would have any suggestions on things to do with a 6 year old, 3 year old (autistic/non verbal) and a 7 month old baby? My mind has gone completely blank other than our local soft play. Would appreciate any ideas 😊

I really need to go to the shops today and grab some essentials but I can’t drive so my partner and Bub were going to come with me. Is it safe for baby to come if he’s in his pram?

Thoughts on my offerings idea?

I have 4 boys (and my first little witch on her way!) but I have 4 boys that love to collect random little things while we’re out. Rocks, shells, sticks, acorns, you name it. I usually tell them put them back for the things around here. But I had a thought of getting a bowl or something that can sit outside the door...

Would you go on a 3 day cruise without your 14 month old?

Husband booked a free cruise for when my baby will be 14 months old. She’s almost 6 months old right now. I told him to cancel it because I tried letting my in laws watch her for the evening and it didn’t go well. They live with us so she’s use to them but she’s use to being with me because I’m a SAHM. I can’t imagi...

Dreading the clocks going back

It’s going to be dark soo early now 😢 We were big fans of going to the park about 5.30pm to get any last drops of energy out… has anyone got any great ideas for active stuff to do at home that isn’t wrecking the house or watching TV 🤣🤣 My daughter doesn’t go to bed until 8.30pm at the earliest so these evenings…

What’s everyone buying their little ones for Christmas?

I need some inspiration for my little girl for Christmas, she gets bored of toys or games really quickly. We’re forever buying something we think she’ll love, she plays with it for 10 minutes then doesn’t bother with it again! She loves being outside so maybe a climbing frame?
