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!

They’ve both had a great year at school this year. Troy’s first without his sister by his side and Athena’s first at secondary school. 

They both had great reports, always did their best and have made some really lovely new friends this year. I could not be more proud of them.

Now, let’s go and enjoy the next six weeks before school starts all over again!

Baby Born Interactive Wonderland Dragon Review

If there’s one thing LP loves, aside from My Little Pony, it’s dragons. Actually, it’s probably because of My Little Pony that she loves dragons so when the Baby Born Interactive Wonderland Dragon turned up to review LP immediately named him Spike – like the My Little Pony character.

The interactive dragon comes with a wand and an egg that can open to reveal a baby dragon inside. The actual dragon has two different modes – a test mode where you can press it’s ear to hear it make dragon noises and see it’s eyes and muzzle light up.

In full mode you use the wand to tap the dragon’s forehead to hear it make dragon noises and tap again for the dragon to fully come to life, walking and flapping it’s wings.

The egg can also be placed in a recess under the dragon for it to then lay the egg as it walks. LP and Little Man love the dragon and as far as LP is concerned it’s her new real life baby dragon friend.

But, I was expecting a bit more for quite a high value toy. It’s very repetitive and despite its cuddly appearance it’s actually pretty solid plastic, and not cuddly at all. It also makes a constant whirring noise when it walks and doesn’t have a huge amount of play value beyond making noises, lighting up, moving and laying the egg.

But, LP loves it and I think any young child would be in awe of this cute and lovable dragon. She’s spent time using the dragon as she would any doll – caring for it, playing games with it and even sleeping with it in bed with her. As an alternative to a doll it’s a great toy and something LP genuinely loves having in her life.

The Baby Born Interactive Wonderland Dragon has an RRP of £54.99

    Hmm, doesn’t look too amazing but at least LP loves it, there are lots of toys the girls love that I think are a bit rubbish but I guess we don’t see it from their point of view.
