Frizz Ease by John Frieda: Review and Giveaway
When your children start to get into their teens all of a sudden they become much more critical of their own appearance. My daughter has hair that I would have died for at that age – it is thick and lustrous with natural volume – but all she can see is the frizz…. Step forward Frizz Ease
Book Review: Help your Kids with Growing Up
I was sent a copy of this lovely book to review, Help your kids with Growing Up. It came at the absolute perfect time …
Shrek’s Adventure with my Nephew Charlie
My family are blogger ambassadors for Merlin Annual Pass and we take our responsibilities very seriously. Last year I took my 12 year old son to see Shrek’s Adventure on the South Bank in London, and he didn’t even bat an eyelid at the fact it’s aimed at much younger children. In fact I think he enjoyed it a bit more than he expected to. So when my 8 year old nephew wanted to go this year, we were straight there.
Lemon Oil: The scent of summer
A few weeks ago I looked at the doTERRA Family Essentials kit, and showed how I had started to use it. Today I am focusing on lemon oil, which is my absolute doTERRA favourite, because it just smells so good. I’m amazed how versatile it is too, and my home and life now smells of lemon, all over. Read to the end to find out how you can claim a free sample of lemon essential oil.
The best use of an INSET Day
When my children were younger I used to find INSET days a bit of an inconvenience. A day in the middle of the working week when you need to feed and entertain them. At least I work from home, so I guess it’s not too bad, but I don’t know how working mums cope!
Nowadays though, it’s completely different. Now my daughter is 14 and when she sees the word INSET day she has only one thought. A day when the theme parks won’t have quite so many queues!
We live close enough to Thorpe Park that she and her friends can get there on their own, (there is a good bus service from Staines station) and I am comfortable with the park’s safety and happy to let them go. And that means I don’t have to go on all the big rides any more!

Review of Huawei MiFi from Three.co.uk
I’ve always fancied the idea of a Mifi device. I don’t travel a lot with my business, but I do spend a lot of time out of the house waiting for the children to do this and that, and it’s handy to use that time catching up on social media and similar (it’s necessary for work – really…). Some places I wait have great Wifi connections and others not so great, so I do find myself pulling a lot of phone data each month.
Revisiting Childhood: Review of Legoland with Merlin Annual Pass
I’m really pleased to have been chosen as a Merlin Annual Pass Blog Ambassador for the third year running. We live very close to Thorpe Park, and having the Annual Passes means that my two children (aged 14 and 12) can be just about set free to run riot there over the summer.
