Blogmas Tag 2021

This year, we have decided to do Blogmas once again! Blogmas is where you post every single day in the month of December. As we tend to post every single day anyway, we have decided to ensure that half of our posts (every other day) are Christmas or Winter themed. These posts will feel more wintery, starting with this one! Blogmas is a really interesting challenge, and we will be working hard to complete it. To start off Blogmas, we figured we’d do a winter-themed tag!

What is your favorite winter treat?

I really love Snowballs – those marshmallows, covered in chocolate and coconut, though they are around all year long, I seem to only ever remember them in the wintertime. Dann’s faorite winter treat is, hands down, stollen. As soon as he sees stollen in the shops, we start buying them up, for him to enjoy.

Dream to Change the World is an Inspiring Children’s Book

[Ad- gifted product] Most of our current bedtime stories have important lessons or fantasy themes, which have dominated the books that we currently have. There is nothing wrong with having books that are just for fun or having books that contain a lesson, but from time to time, it’s pretty lovely to get a book that has a real life story attached to it. Dream to Change the World is the story of John La Rose, a real person who positively changed the world.

A Day Out at Jump Giants Trampoline & Air Park

Ever since going out to Jump In, the children have been itching to explore more trampoline parks. There seem to be quite a few of them now that we’ve taken a look, but Jump Giants has something that other trampoline parks don’t have – an Air Park. This space is split up into two areas; the Trampoline Park and the Air Park, which require different socks, different tickets, and have different timers. There is a shared cafe area between the two, and you can book tickets for both, but we ended up going to each half on different days, to expand our adventure across two different weekends.

Six Second Scribble is quick and funny to play!

[Ad- gifted product] It is rare that a tabletop game will work for everyone in our family – from adults to young ones, but sometimes we do hit the mark with games that just gel with everyone. Six Second Scribble is a new game from Gamely, that is rated for ages 8 and above, but works with all of us (even Robin who is 5!) which has been a big delight! It’s a simple concept and a quick to play game, so it’s very easy for everyone to get involved.
