So we are headed for our first abroad holiday as a family of 3. We have a 14 month old little one, he doesn't currently walk but we have just over a month so you never know. Please share all of your absolute musts for travel, poolside, days out and beach. I have no clue what to get 😂!

What do you guys do all day? My baby is almost 11 months old and I have no idea what do do all day. I sing, dance, let his explore wherever he wants to go (safely) when we can (depending on weather) we go for walks around stores and im just losing it. When I try and set up activities he just tries to eat it or chew...

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

Feel a bit pants typing this but need some advice. My lad is audhd and goes to a sen school but he has a problem with hitting another child.

What ideas can I do for the garden now it's getting warmer outside? I go and put the washing outside but she hates it when I leave the livingroom and shes in her playpen, what can I do outside that's safe for her to be outside with me just so I can do odd stuff without having her attach to me. Her being inside is n...

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...

Mums of teens, my son (12) is a total gamer has been most of his life and honestly I hate it. He doesn’t enjoy being outside or doing sports. Nothing comes close to gaming basically. I’ve spent the last 12 years encouraging him to do this and that but always comes back to gaming. He spends most of his time at his da...

My little one is in nursery Monday - Wednesday. On our days off together, we do swimming, soft play, go to the park etc. I try to get us out the house everyday and at home we'll just play with his toys but I feel like I should be doing some more fun creative activities with him?? What are you all doing with your bab...

Hi everyone, do you recommend any activities with a 2 month old baby in K&C? Playgroups, baby massage, music, etc. I have mostly found things for toddlers so far

Needing ideas for birthday presents for my little one. She is already getting a learning tower from family. We want to get her something she’ll use for at least a year (preferably more). We have $200 budgeted for her present.

Can anyone recommend any non-stimulating shows for a 2 year old? Thanks!

Trying to figure out what’s the best way to stop a kid from getting frustrated. He slams his iPad or his hands on table when he doesn’t get what he wants. He also shouts and just cry. I usually take him out of that situation and tells him he will get punished if he hits.

Hi all, Does anyone live in Stanway/Colchester and have any suggestions for baby classes? LO is currently 8 weeks old ☺️ Would be great if you are already going to one too!

If your LO plays games on their phone or iPad, what game is it and most importantly, is it completely free? Thanks

Hi! I am ISO some mom friends who are either flight crew or married to flight crews and have flight benefits.
