This week, we are getting crafty with two Tiger Tribe craft sets: 3D colouring set (Sci-Fi) and stained glass set (Sunbeam Dreams). Before I show you these two fun craft sets from Australia, first let me introduce the brand Tiger Tribe to you.
Tiger Tribe was started in 2007 in Australia with the vision to design children’s gifts and toys that were creative, engaging and affordable. They wanted to create products that children would play with, that tapped into a child’s imagination and sense of fun. They design compact and portable activity sets that are ideal for café play and travel. Now they are expanding their products in the UK and are available to buy from good stores and Amazon.
Nintendo Labo is a brand new groundbreaking set of physical toys (in the form of DIY cardboard pieces), partnered with software/games. This new line of interactive make, play and discover experiences are designed to educate while entertaining the children with fun activities/games. They also improve children’s knowledge and understanding of a wide range of topics like STEM. By assembling sheets of cardboard into a variety of shapes called Toy-Con, and combining them with the Nintendo Switch console you can bring them to life!
To celebrate the launch of The Great Oreo Cookie Quest (an on-pack competition and interactive cookie quest), we were invited to create a family fun-filled “cookie quest”. We chose to go on a fun sightseeing trip in Majorca! Thanks to Oreo and BritMums for this opportunity!
This June, we are on a mission to explore Lichfield and surrounding areas on two wheels by creating our own cycling adventure with the ‘Slow holidays’ company, InnTravel. Did you know that InnTravel have been offering cycling holidays in Europe since the late 1980s, and their range is wide and varied, with something for all ‘amateurs’?
In my earlier posts, I mentioned that we went to the Moor Valley Country Park and Southbourne beach during the summer holidays. Another place we went to was the RockReef Activity Centre on Bournemouth Pier.
Both my children are into rock climbing and we haven’t had much opportunity to take them. Whilst on holiday, we came across RockReef Activity Centre on Bournemouth Pier. We did a bit of research while eating our lunch and phoned them as their website didn’t give us enough information about the activities before we booked it online (small saving if booking online).
Last week, we finally went to Ripley’s Believe it or Not in London. We have walked past it many times but have never had a chance to visit. Ripley’s is situated right by Piccadilly Circus Underground Station which has services from both the Piccadilly Line and the Bakerloo Line. Upon arrival at the tube station, use Exit 4 to Coventry Street. It is really easy to find!
In broad terms, there are two types of holiday most tourists will embark upon. The relaxing retreat, where chilling out on the beach and lapping up the sun is the order of the day and the more adventurous getaway, where travellers explore the cultural highlights of a particular city and participate in a few active pursuits.
A lot depends on the holidaymaker in question and what they want from their time away. But where should you be heading in search of these distinctive escapes? India and South Africa are equally attractive destinations which promise to provide many types of travellers with everything they could possibly want.
Travelling in the car can sometime be quite stressful. So I always make sure we have these essentials in the car to try to make sure that my children can be comfortable in the car. My 5 and 7 year olds can be quite demanding in the car especially when it’s a long journey.
