Help a crazed mama out😵‍💫

I’ve legit changed her first birthday theme five times now as I’m so indecisive, it’s between Winnie the Pooh or Disney princesses. What do we think? The Winnie the Pooh invitation I had already customized and ordered, but again I’m indecisive.

Adolescence on Netflix, though....

Brilliant acting. Scary but factual commentary on modern society. In one part, it mentions influence of Andrew Tate who's been shown support by the likes of Jordan Peterson, Russel Brand, Donald Trump. Don't let Trump be your kid's role model. Though the series isn't directly about him, he is a lightening rod fo...

Thinking ahead to term time holidays…

My children are only 2 & 1 at the moment but in attendance at nursery which we pay for so I fully understand the fees still apply to hold their place if we choose to go on holiday.

Low-stimulating tv shows

Could anyone recommend shows on Netflix and Disney+ that are not overstimulating? My mum is about to start looking after my toddler so I wanted to give her a list of things that are better to watch rather than her just going for the brightest thing that stands out on Netflix/ Disney+. We don’t watch much kids TV b...

Allowance/Greenlight card

I have a 7 and 8 year old and want to start teaching them more about money (investing/saving.) I feel like it’s good to start young. Have any of you mamas used Greenlight with your kids? Are these ages too young? We’ve used cash for allowance in the past but it’s messy 😅 and we are going on a week long vacation…
