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 ...

Last week I went to the Science Museum for their press showing of their Science Museum Live show.  It is aimed at 7-11 year olds. Those of you who read the blog regularly will know that Munchkin is only 3; however last week I also had two German teenagers staying with me, so we decided to go and check out ...

So it's been a pretty rubbish Summer weather wise.  My plans for the summer were to rock up to a park armed with a picnic and let Bear Cub wear himself out running around, exploring and playing all day, every day but the rain unfortunately had other ideas.  This has made it even more difficult to find cheap/free things to ...

The other day, I tried something new with my 2 and a half year old. We went to the Victoria and Albert Museum. I didn’t take her there strapped into a buggy and hoping she would sleep. I didn’t drag her around, kicking and screaming. I didn’t even have to carry her – she had great fun! We headed to Exhibition ...
