My daughter’s nursery are arranging trips, for daughters room it would be a trip to a local library. The mini bus has all the safety requirements for the children but I don’t want her to go.

Hi everyone, LO’s 1st birthday in 2 days. Just wanted some ideas for a day out but not too far. We also have a 7 year old boy. So wanted something that would interest him as well. TIA

How much screen time do your 2 year olds have?

Now that fall is almost here. What do you mommies plan on doing with your babies during the day and to get them out of the house to get their wiggles out. We go to story time at the library and there is a baby gym nearby but it cost $200 a month for two classes a week. I like free activities but definitely willing t...

Hi all, will be travelling to Dubai with our 4 month old in October. Any tips? I’m seeing lots of people do a Boots order (nappies/formula etc) and collect after security at the airport. Doesn’t that create a lot of carrying around? With emirates we only get 10kg allowance for baby, which isn’t a lot at all - so d...

Hi! Can you please recommend good play areas/kids places in Swansea for toddlers. I have never been to a library so how are they?

My baby is 6 months this week. Ever since around 4 months she’s needed entertaining. I’m struggling to find things I can take her to in London and activities we can do.

Hi girls, FTM and new to this area. Any advice on where I could take my little boy, he's 12 weeks currently and we are getting bored at home😆

Help! So I'm still adjusting to part-time mum life, I now work 2 days a week since April (before it was full-time), and in the summer, it was fine. I could keep my girl entertained. But now it's just rainy season, and there isn't much to do indoors where I live since it's mostly outdoor stuff or only open during ...

Hi everyone, My 2 year old just started nursery last week and as expected he’s got a little cold at the moment 🥺 This may sound like a silly question 🫣 but what do you guys do with your little ones when they’re sick? Do you do activities or are you okay with just letting them watch tv all day as it’s just for a…

I’m having a hard time getting my almost 20 month old interested in coloring or scribbling with crayons. She just won’t sit still long enough and just really isn’t all that interested. I’ve brought so many different crayons and markers of all sizes but she just isn’t too crazy about it except taking the caps off the...

A few of my friends with older children have the tonies box and Lucas has shown interest in them so I mentioned it to his dad for Christmas 🎄 He had a little look and he said so it just reads a book to him? 🤣 I said yes in layman’s terms but he can get other figures and put them on the box and he loves them and…
