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!

Frugi Outerwear – Little Explorers Coat Review

Disclosure: We were sent the featured products for the purpose of this post however all opinions are my own.

You’ll probably know by now that we are huge Frugi fans and when we were asked to choose a Frugi coat for LP or Little Man to review it really was hard to decide which design to go for – Although I do have a slight addiction to star print so the Little Explorer Coat in ‘Fire Engine Stars’ was chosen.

Review: Frugi Outerwear - Little Explorers Coat

I love the unisex design of this coat and LP really likes the colour and pointing out her stars. Frugi’s great quality means that each item will last longer than just one child can wear it for so I’m looking forward to passing this beautiful coat down to Little Man at a later date.

Review: Frugi Outerwear - Little Explorers Coat

The Little Explorer Waterproof Coat is perfect for rainy days, autumn and even the colder winter months. The outer is completely waterproof, made of 100% recycled polyester to give it a fluorocarbon free durable water repellent finish and fully taped seams. The coat is nicely padded with the extra addition of a lovely soft fleece lined inner. This makes the coat super warm even on the coldest of days for your little one. There are even hand warmer pockets which match the fleece lining perfectly and a chin guard over the top of the zip too.

Review: Frugi Outerwear - Little Explorers Coat

One great feature of the Frugi Explorer Coat is the addition of reflective stars on the back, pockets and arms to make sure that the child is visible even at night. Such a simple safety feature is fantastic! The coat has both zip and popper fastening as well as a really good size hood although as the coat has a bit of growing room on LP, we did find the hood stood up on her head due to the gathering style at the front. I’m sure when her head grows into the hood more it will fit perfectly. It would be a fantastic school coat for kids and comes in a range of designs – I love the current Sail Blue Fly High print.

Review: Frugi Outerwear - Little Explorers Coat

I love Frugi’s addition of a name label inside the coat and LP’s secret pocket on the arm. Frugi’s clothes now go all the way up to the age of ten and they do maternity and nursing clothing too. All of Frugi’s products have lovely bright colours, bold designs and they really do celebrate childhood through their designs as well as using organic cotton. LP’s new Little Explorer Coat is something she is going to love wearing all the way from now until next spring!
