Just my luck 🙃

I got my daughter tickets to Disney on ice as part of her birthday. I woke up this morning seriously ill 🤒 I’ve spent most of today sleeping or struggling to awake and my partners had to take care of her. The tickets are for tomorrow night 🥲

Football sessions - best age to start?

Would you start at 2yo (as many do) - or is it too young? We had a trial session this week, and I’m not convinced either way. My child definitely prefers to throws balls (and throws well) - compared to kicking. He can kick - but I can’t decide if good to start football early, and maybe 3 yo is better? Or later?

Am I wrong?

Mums who emigrated with the kids 🧳✈️🛂

When you packed up your whole life and home to move country, what were the most important things to make sure you took with you? (NOT things like passports, documents, photos etc - those are obviously first packed). Struggling to start and prioritise what comes in luggage, what gets shipped and what never makes the ...

We don't know anyone over there, all of our family are in the UK and I know our daughter will miss her grandparents and cousins But I just feel like the UK is going sh£t and NZ offers more security and a brighter future. Bu...

What is your little one obsessed with at the moment?

I find it so funny that they just latch onto something for a while. At the moment my son is obsessed with tractors, rainbows, the alphabet, and bees 🐝 😅 We listen to the same tractor song probably 100 times a day

Toddler play and interaction

I always question whether I'm doing enough to play with my toddler. When we're at home and I'm not cooking/doing some sort of chore, I generally sit on the sofa and my toddler will play around in the living room. He seems happy enough and will run around and play with different toys, bring me stuff, etc. I interac...
