Disney•Pixar’s major emotion picture, Inside Out has taken a mind-blowing £38million after 10 weeks at the UK box office. The film, which took £7.38m in its opening weekend, is the biggest original Pixar film of all time in the UK and is second only to Frozen in terms of original animation.
From the producer of “Up”, Academy Award-Winning Director Pete Doctor, and an original score by Michael Giacchino (“The Incredibles,” “Ratatouille,” “Up”), Inside Out is a heart-warming and hilarious introduction to the little voices inside your head. With the incredible voice styling’s of Amy Poehler (Parks and Recreation, Mean Girls) as Joy, Phyllis Smith (The Office: US, Bad Teacher) as the voice of Sadness, Bill Hader (Tropic Thunder, Saturday Night Live) as the voice of Fear, Lewis Black (The Daily Show) as the voice of Anger and Mindy Kaling (The Mindy Project, The Office: US) as Disgust, Inside Out has taken audiences to unique and imaginative places.

TinyMe Messenger Bag Review
TinyMe sells a fantastic wide range of cute personalised items for children like name labels, lunch bags, wooden puzzles, wall stickers, calendars (personalised and non-personalised) and gift cards, and have been doing so since 2006. They are based in Australia and all the items are made from there. They do have a Birmingham based office to deliver the goods out to their customers.
This is not our first time ordering from TinyMe and I am impressed with the overall quality of the items and quick service.

Last weekend, we were invited to attend the Change4Life 10 Minute Shake Up campaign with Disney Pixar Inside Out movie preview at Soho Hotel. Both of our children were excited as they were the first few to watch the Inside Out movie (out in cinema from 24 July 2015 in UK), and they also received the Change4Life team wristband with timer.
Change4Life and Disney are teaming up again to bring four favourite Disney teams; Frozen, Toy Story, Monsters Inc. and Big Hero 6, to inspire children to do a little more activity each day via the 10 Minute Shake Up campaign.

Kids across England can become Shake Up winners by taking part in as many Shake Ups as they can to help their chosen Disney team win!
Free Printable Kids Travel Games
We often travel by train when we need to go to one of the big city centres like London, Birmingham or Manchester as it is much less stressful than trying to navigate through the busy roads with kids in the back. If you’re able to travel off-peak, the tickets are often quite affordable (children under 5 years old are free) and kids love taking public transport too. They always get very excited but at the same time, they get bored easily especially if it is a long journey.

Waitrose Teddy Bears Picnic ideas
My children might be 5 and 6, but they are still very much in love with their teddy bears. When they heard that they were allowed to bring their own unique bears out for a picnic, they were over the moon! I have never allowed them to take their bedtime bears outside of the house, just in case they lost it and as most parents will know, a child’s favourite cuddly toy is so difficult to replace!
So a day before, Mr C and the children went to our local Waitrose to buy the groceries for our teddy bears picnic. They bought a few packets of ham, tomatoes, a loaf of bread, strawberries, cake, Capri-Sun and others. I then made a lot of ham, jam and egg sandwiches and packed our bag with fruits, snacks and plenty of drinks!
