If you’re anything like me, the thought of spending the day at the soft play makes your skin crawl 🤢. But with the days getting colder, we all need an indoor spot to keep the little ones busy (and ourselves sane!) Well, the National Maritime Museum delivers and it’s FREE! From the exhibitions to the interactive displays and immersive play area, there’s so much for the little ones to do. And, of course, coffee for mum. Swipe through to see what we loved most, and save this for your next winter day out. 🌧️

Everyone talks about needing a village. The hard part is finding one. Neya is a free neighbourhood app designed for the people of Bromley & Penge to help them connect with others nearby, discover local events and find things happening in their community.

Weaning isn’t all fun and games… I really wanted to dive headfirst into BLW, but when the time came I was so anxious about my baby choking. I find that information is the biggest antidote to fear, so I got to researching and this is what helped: - minifirstaid online course for £20 ( also lots of free resources available via St John Ambulance) - the Solid Starts food prep guidance (I still use this now!) Once I felt more confident in BLW, I had to overcome the mess! This is where bibado comes in. And their bibs have without a doubt been my number 1 weaning essential! Why I love them: 🥣 easy to clean (machine washable) 🥣 adjustable (my daughter is 18 months and has been wearing them since 6 months!) 🥣lightweight so you can have them on hand wherever you go! They truly are worth every penny and have saved me 100s of outfit changes (and my sanity!)
