5th birthday ideas

My LB is turning 5 in a few weeks and I have no idea what to do for his 5th birthday, I want to make it special as 5 is a big one but feel like I’ve done so much with him already. Would love some ideas/inspiration-preferably a day out in London somewhere. Currently he is obsessed with anything train related.

Hobbies/Interests

Just wondering what other mums do when you have a spare hour(s) or even the day to yourself. 🤔I’m a pretty busy and social person so just wondering what you all do. I find I busy myself with chores or watch tv

Child Behavior ( 6 year old boy )

Hey, my son's teacher emailed me informing me that my son showed his private parts in health class. This is very shocking to me as he's normally well-behaved. As anyone experienced this before? Need advice on how to treat this situation

Baby classes

When did everyone start taking their babies to baby sessions? My baby is nearly 4 months old and I feel bad I’ve not taken her to any baby sessions yet. She’s asleep most of the time so I feel she’d be asleep during the sessions (which is the only reason i’ve not taken her)

If you ask your toddler to get something, could they do it?

At our last HV visit she said that our toddler should (or should soon be able to) retrieve something from another room and bring it to us. For example we would ask "Where is your ball?"
