My Top 10 Old Korean and Taiwanese Drama Favourites
These are a few of my favourite drama which I like to share and recommend:
King of The Railway
They’re two they’re four they’re six they’re eight
Shunting trucks and hauling freight
red and green and brown and blue
they’re the really useful crew ….
Can you guess who’s song is that? Of course it is Thomas & Friends! Today, we were very lucky to get invited to visit Drayton Manor Park which is the home of Thomas Land! It is near Tamworth and very well sign posted. The sat nav might take you to the wrong entrance, so be careful, as there is a big sign written no access to Drayton Manor Park. There are a lot of parking spaces and costs £3 for parking. We have been here before and I had blogged about our experience which you can read here.
Room on the Broom Theatre
Last Thursday, the lovely people from Town Hall & Symphony Hall kindly offered my family tickets to watch Room on the Broom Theatre. We had a fantastic time and I would recommend this show to anyone with children who is over 4 years old. The recommend age is 3+ years old.
Jakks Pacific Smurfs 2 launch party at Odeon
Last Sunday, we were fortunate to get invited to watch The Smurf 2 at Odeon together with Anna Marikar (click here to read her post) and Blue Bear Wood. When I was young, I loved watching Smurfs cartoons with my sister and she had a huge collection of Smurfs figurines. Shame that my mother threw them away when we moved house. How I wish I could pass it on to my children as Ms C has fallen in love with the latest Jakks Pacific Smurf-tastic toys!
CD Review: Teen Beach Movie Soundtrack
Teen Beach Movie is a Disney Channel Original Movie premiere on 19 July 2013, on the Disney Channel, starring Ross Lynch (Austin & Ally) as Brady, and Disney Channel newcomer Maia Mitchell as McKenzie. They are teen surfing sweethearts riding the last wave of summer together which mysteriously takes them into a classic beach party movie, Wet Side Story. Now they must try to find a way to return to present day, but their lives may be changed forever when they inadvertently alter the movie’s romantic storyline.
uno, dos, tres Dora the Explorer Live!
Dora the Explorer is an American animated television series about a Latina girl who loves to embark on new quests with her talking purple backpack and her anthropomorphic monkey named Boots. This time Dora has lost her teddy bear Osito, and the search is on to retrieve him.

Ben and Holly’s Little Kingdom Live on Stage
Both of my children are massive fans of Ben and Holly’s Little Kingdom. Ms C likes to pretend she is Princess Holly while Mr K likes to be Ben. We also own a little castle magical playset, a toadstool playset and lunch box. Now and then, they like to watch it on TV or YouTube. When I told them that we are going to watch Ben and Holly’s Little Kingdom live on stage, they were so excited! We had made a video months ago to enter the Ben and Holly competition.
The Gruffalo Book and Live on Stage!
The first time that I came across The Gruffalo magnetic book was my son’s 3rd birthday present from my friend, AP. It looked so interesting and I heard a lot of good reviews from friends that it is a classic book for the whole family! We loved it so much that we followed up and bought the paperback and hardback editions!! I’m really glad that I did which will be explained soon!
