Days Out in the Midlands
Farmer Ted’s Dairy
I was scrolling through my Instagram account this week and saw someone post that they had been to Farmer Ted’s Dairy with their son and got some fresh milk. With my two girls having such a love of milk, the idea of them being able to pour their own fresh non-homogenised and gently pasteurised milk…
Sutton Park
Yesterday we headed to Sutton Park for a few hours. We love the Park and even better, it is free. The girls took a little bag each to fill up with a few stones, leaves and sticks to paint when we got home. They enjoyed running around, finding little things to put in their bags,…

Peppa Pig World (Paultons Park)
After a good two years of being asked by Matilda if we could go, we finally decided it was time to head to Paultons Park with both girls. Hoping that they would both be tall enough to go on lots of the rides. We didn’t need to worry. Paultons Park, home of Peppa Pig World…
Drayton Manor Theme Park
As a family we absolutely love Drayton Manor. It has something for all of us to enjoy. We headed over to Drayton Manor Theme Park and Zoo – home of Thomas Land on a teacher training day before the official school Easter Holidays. When it isn’t school holidays, you can get a parent and toddler…
