If you’re heading down to Dorset with the kids then you have to take them to Monkey World. It gets a massive Hey Mummy Thumbs up from us. It’s a fantastic place, not just because of the 250 primates of 20 different species that you will see, but many of the monkey’s have been saved […]
I’ve not grown up attending festivals, it just wasn’t something our family did, nor did I go with friends as a teenager. So now, I’m reliving my youth through my kids and using them as an excuse to sample as much or as little as I feel like. Camp Bestival at Lulworth Castle is perfect […]
Hey Mummy are massive fans of nature. Educating and exploring the great outdoors with kids has so many benefits for children. Katy and I have both found our five kids are happier, easier to entertain, more communicative and generally calmer if they are outside or interacting with natural things instead of looking at screens. My […]
Back during the Easter Holidays a friend asked if we would like to go to Furzey Gardens with the girls on an adventure to find all the fairy doors hidden around the beautiful gardens. Seeing as I most definitely have a little girl who’s imagination is whizzing with princesses and fairies this sounded like her perfect […]
Clay is one of our favourite things to craft with. It’s natural, messy, and a blank canvas for children to create with. We have enjoyed making all sorts of things with air dry clay over the years. Animals, pots, pretend food, tiles, letters, numbers…..etc. You can buy it from places like from somewhere like The Works or […]
Wetsuits are to me as a mum of 3 very active, energetic boys the upside and the downside to watersports and water play…..I love seeing my kids enjoying the sea but I really hate the putting on and taking off wetsuits!! Even Rocco my nine year old needs help to pull the trunk down then […]
Now this isn’t a war on Chocolate, but Easter can become an overload of the stuff. So in this video we’ve come up with a few alternatives for gifts and activities for over the Easter Weekend that don’t have to include chocolate or sweets at all. Anna and her middle son Diggory don’t even like […]
At our house it is rare a day goes buy without some sort of arts and crafts activity, sometimes it is planned and prepped often it is not. It’s also very common for us to have extra kids over to play and join in the fun. I am a clean and tidy freak but I […]
Last Christmas I decided that I wanted to start a little tradition with my daughter. Nothing too crazy just a little something that she might remember doing with me when she gets older and the same for her baby sister as she grows up. I love the magic of Christmas, the story of Santa and […]
The boys and I were so exited to be asked to do a blog for Channel Mum. We were to receive a box of IKEA products and film how we got on with them. Doing any creative, artistic project with all three of my boys can be a tricky task. To have all three […]
