What do you guys do when ur child hits you? How do u handle it?

My 10 years old daughter is driving me mad with her addiction to screens. I set a rule that she can’t watch TV or play on laptop unless she finishes her homework so instead of her doing it she actually take the laptop to do it but she actually play games ! She uses Google Chromebook which I control through family li...

Need to get baby a suitcase but no idea what size! If you’ve been away with a 6m old would you recommend i get a large suitcase?

Hi ladies any ideas for fun activity to do with a 12 year old girl in London? Apart from shopping and a few outing that I have planned I’m not sure what else to do, she’s off for 2 weeks😊 Helpful suggestions would be great !!

How often do you go to things like soft play, messy play, park etc. physical type activities. We do pretty much everyday. Soft play 1-2 times a week, messy play once a week and then the park every day.

Hi, I’m not sure I’m doing this right so apologies if on the wrong page. I recently moved to Crawley with my baby and we haven’t really found anywhere for activities or clubs for his age. Can anyone recommend anything for a 22 month old please? ❤️ thanks in advance xx

What's everyone planning on getting their toddlers this year we are so stuck on what to get him as he has everything already :/

My LO needs a bit more stimulation than the same toys all the time. She's getting bored and I don't just want to putthe tv on. No nursery next week at term time only so need some help please. I was thinking "painting" with water on cardboard. Anything else?

Hiya, any ideas on what to gift my little girl. We initially thought a balance bike but it's getting cold not sure I'd be keen on teaching her how to ride a bike in the cold 😀.

Hey, new to Perth and have a 6 month year old. Looking for some sensory classes for my LO. Thanks x

So we got my son a water table around April when it first started getting warm and set it up outside on the back porch. Now that it’s finally getting cold what are some other ideas for it. We don’t have a lot of storage space. I want to bring it inside but filling it up with water inside would be a nightmare because...

How does your baby play with their toys or what do they do when they are 'playing' by themselves? My boy picks stuff up and walks about with it, like he picks up toy cars or cups walks them to another spot and puts them down, throws them or bangs them on something and starts again. He has great motor skills and is a...

Please comment on ways to get her to watch new shows!!

So my boy has started finding things to draw on walls even though he knows not to do this had to move everything now ! Does anyone know anything that will remove this please? 😩 It’s mainly crayon ! Thank you

Hello, anyone have any ongoing “mommy & me” type classes/activities they recommend in SF? I’m having a hard time finding any, I wonder if I should just start one myself. I could do a movement based class for parents and babies if there’s an interest. Trying to see if this exists first already though. Thanks!

It wouldn’t be the latest. It would be an older one with older games like soccer, basketball ect. I kind of prefer this as I know what games he’s playing. Rather than an iPad that he can watch videos on YouTube ect. I would have a limit for how much he could use this of course. But what are your thoughts is he too y...

Any suggestions on how to entertain a 1 year old on a plane for 12 hours 😩

Hey ladies, I am 38 weeks today and would love to walk this baby out of me while making friends. Lol. Not to mention, maternity leave has me bored out of my mind. 🙃 Are there any expecting moms or new moms wanting to go on walks / subtle hikes in the 925 area together?

Hi. I organise baby walks in and around staffordshire with Blaze Trails

Mums out there with 13 yr olds and older, how often do you spend one on one time with them? I’m really struggling to find time and its harder as he never seems to want to do anything other than “gaming” or listening to music I hate 🤣 Experiences please x x x
