I love going to art galleries; I love looking at paintings and I love the peace of an art gallery. Can you manage to experience this with a 4 year old and a 5 week old? Well, last Monday that is what I attempted to do. Munchkin, B2 and I spent several hours in the National Gallery and had a ...

Today's guest post was written by Ruth's OH @Astro_Den and was originally posted on Feb 9th 2013 on www.astronomersden.wordpress.com When I was a small astronomer one of the highlights of my early interest was the London Planetarium. It is one of those trips with my parents that I remember very fondly and still feel the edge of excitement from the start ...

Today is International Women's day - Hurray! As you well know by now, here at MTAM we aim to encourage and spur you on to be a brilliant mum but also to rediscover your identity as a woman at the same time - something that can sometimes be lost or at least a little pushed aside when we become mums.  So ...

There are so many venues with so many shows aimed ...

Bear Cub & Munchkin are both at the stage when they not only need a lot of exercise but where they need a lot of mental stimulation too.  Ruth and I tackle this by trying to take them out on various day trips - preferably free or at least low-cost - at least once a week.  We've found there is ...

If your child is anything like BearCub i.e. like a dog, he has to be exercised outdoors at least twice a day! With the nights drawing in and weather colder and wetter it is sometimes difficult to find outdoor things to do that are going to occupy him, and more importantly, wear him out. It is even more of a ...

You may remember our post within the flexible working Mum's series where Erin told us about the Small Print Jewellery franchise business she ran and how this had spurred her on to run her own business called Pitter Patter Hub for Bubs.  Well, Erin is now expecting her second baby in January, but this hasn't stopped Pitter Patter growning.  She ...
