AD - Press Trip | I had such a great weekend at @p AD - Press Trip | I had such a great weekend at @pottersresortsfivelakes with @slwilson84. It was an action packed three nights with a full activity and entertainment programme, great food, lovely drinks and beautiful surroundings. 

The staff go above and beyond to make everyone feel at home and they ensure that everyone has the best time possible. I don’t think I stopped smiling all weekend.

The best thing about Potters holidays is that everything is included in the price you pay. Four meals a day, all your drinks - including wine, Prosecco, most spirits and soft drinks - great accommodation and so many activities. 

I’ll write a full review soon but for now here’s a little Reel of our weekend
I always have a lot of questions about accommodati I always have a lot of questions about accommodation when we stay anywhere as a family so I thought I’d share this little tour of our room at @windjammerlanding which was a pretty perfect place to stay.

It’s the ‘Ocean View Two Bedroom’ which was like a little house, with an upstairs and downstairs, built into the hillside. Both rooms had outdoor space and their own shower rooms. Such a great option for a family.

And just like that, Athena is 12! What a joy it is And just like that, Athena is 12! What a joy it is watching her grow and what a wonderful young woman she is becoming. We could not be more proud. Love you Pickle, have a great birthday.
We’ve just got back from two glorious weeks in S We’ve just got back from two glorious weeks in St Lucia staying at @windjammerlanding and it was just the holiday we needed. Two weeks of sunshine and relaxation in what must be one of the most beautiful islands in the world. 

We can’t wait to go back again in the future. Here’s just a little snippet of our trip.
AD - Press Tickets | We had such a nice day at @na AD - Press Tickets | We had such a nice day at @national_motor_museum despite the rain! The children loved the Little Beaulieu play area and we loved exploring the National Motor Museum and Top Gear exhibit before having a ride on the monorail! We went on an old open topped bus, explored the Beaulieu Manor House and loved the gardens. 
Beaulieu is always a great day out - whatever the weather. This summer they have a whole ‘Summer of Fun’ planned, with activities most days - parades, bird shows and hundreds of sculptures within the grounds too. If you’re looking for a day out this summer definitely think about heading to Beaulieu.
AD - Press Tickets | Tonight we took the kids to t AD - Press Tickets | Tonight we took the kids to their first concert - but it was so much more than just a concert! @abbavoyage is incredible. With CGI ABBA and a live band, it’s like being at an ABBA concert 40 years ago but with modern lighting, effects and sound. ABBA look and sound real, it’s a mind blowing experience.
The set includes all the songs you know and love as well as a few less familiar ones.
You can’t take photos during the show which actually made a refreshing change. A whole arena focused purely on the show and soaking up the moment. It’s definitely something the four of us will always remember.
Now, I’m off to sing Dancing Queen all the way home.
AD - Press Trip | We had such a great day at @phdo AD - Press Trip | We had such a great day at @phdockyard today. They have a fantastic Ultimate Explorer ticket that lets you visit all the attractions as many times as you like for 12 months - and after a day at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard we can see that you need more than one day to really do everything!

We explored HMS Warrior, HMS Victory and the Mary Rose Exhibition - which is incredible! We also saw where ships are built and restored and spent time in Action Stations where the kids climbed and did an assault course.

Portsmouth Historic Dockyard is such a fun, educational day out with something for all ages - we can’t wait to go on their harbour tours next time we visit!

Getting Stronger Bones with Yazoo Kids | AD

*This is a paid post

This summer Yazoo have asked us to take part in their Stronger Bones Challenge. Yazoo know that exercise and calcium are the perfect ingredients for stronger bones and so they’re encouraging families to mix up their daily routine with exercise and extra activities over the summer holidays and beyond.

We are a fairly active family and always make sure we walk when we can instead of taking the car, spend time outside in the fresh air and pop out even for half an hour when we’ve been stuck inside all day. But, it can be hard to know how to incorporate more activity into your day to day lives – especially when you don’t have the routine of the school run or extra curricular clubs to keep you and the children busy.

So this summer we’ve been going on the usual days out but in between we have been popping to the park – walking or scooting – and taking a ball along with us. A simple kickabout can be so much fun and tiring too although the children’s favourite thing to do is play in an adventure playground or simple play park, something we save until the end of any park trip as a real treat for them both.

LP and Little Man love to run around, play chase or tag and create their own games using their surroundings or a ball, making the rules up as they go along. Sometimes we’ll take a frisbee or they’ll race in circles on their bikes or scooters, happily spending an hour or two in the fresh air.

But, on busy days or ones where the weather isn’t as good we’ll stick to the garden at home, spending time running around and playing in any space that they can find.

On our days out, trips to the park or days at home the children will always have snacks between meals and Yazoo Kids is the perfect snack for them – full of so many health benefits in every bottle. It’s something our whole family really enjoy.

Yazoo Kids has no added sugar or artificial sweeteners and just includes the same naturally occurring sugars as a glass of semi-skimmed milk. It’s low in fat, rich in calcium and protein, a source of Vitamin B2 and under 100 calories per bottle.

The Yazoo Kids range comes in three flavours – chocolate, strawberry and banana. The strawberry and banana flavours carry the Change 4 Life Good Choice Badge making them a great choice when it comes to family friendly snacks.

The children have loved getting out and about more this summer – and have loved taking Yazoo Kids along with them too. It’s a great source of calcium and considering that 20% of kids never drink milk it’s reassuring to know that Yazoo Kids gives the whole family the calcium they need for stronger bones.

Here’s a video we’ve made of our day to day activities with the help of Yazoo Kids:

Does your family get an hour of exercise every day? Why not shake up your routine and take the stronger bones challenge too? Add some extra activities as well as Yazoo Kids into the rest of your summer holidays.

    Both my kids love Yazoo and I do think it helps when they are so active. Strong bones are required when you are 3 & 7 and love throwing yourself off the playground equipment

    I didn’t even know they still made Yazoo, I know my 3 would love them (especially the chocolate flavour!). They would be perfect on one of our days out x
