A Day Out at Wonderlab: The Equinor Gallery in the Science Museum

We have been to the Science Museum in London a few times, as it’s such a fun adventure! The museum itself is free to enter, with a variety of different exhibitions from things about space, to airplanes to pop up exhibitions on things like color. With so much to explore, we had not often tried any of the add on extras, but this time the Wonderlab had a bunch of different posters throughout, and Robin asked if we could go.

Entertaining Little Ones on a Rainy Day with Wicked Uncle

[Ad- gifted products] The springtime in the United Kingdom is a mix of sunny days and rainy days, seemingly at random. We are a big adventure family, so as soon as parks make sense to go too, we do spend a lot of time outdoors. With that said, whenever it rains, we do have times indoors. Robin, the most adventurous of us, is one that is hard to entertain when it comes to sticking inside. Unlike her older siblings, she isn’t one to sit in front of the Xbox or a computer for very long, so we tend to have a few toys on hand for her to play around with! Wicked Uncle has so many great options, sorted by age, but here are two toys we love to play with on rainy days!

A Day Out at The Book of Will at the Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch

[Ad- gifted experience] We are back at the Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch for another wonderful performance. The Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch is a really wonderful venue – our current favorite. We got a few drinks at the bar, which has on the tap cocktails, and then settled into our seats for The Book of Will. The Book of Will is a love letter to Shakespeare, showcasing a group of the King’s Men and their wives, who are looking to preserve as many as William’s plays as they possibly can.

Getting Creative with BloPens Fantasy Set

[Ad- gifted product] When I was a child, I have a distinct memory of saving up money to get my own set of BloPens, from a TV infomercial. I wasn’t actually 18 years or older, so couldn’t purchase it in the end – but now I can live vicariously through our children, who have had a couple of different BloPens sets in their lives! Currently, Robin and Amelia have been enjoying the BloPens Fantasy Set.

A Day Out at The Lost Spells at the Polka Theatre

[Ad- gifted experience] Once again, we found ourselves at The Polka Theatre – a lovely, child focused theatre with a large play area. This play area has dress up, building block area, books to read, coloring and a café, making it a really nice place to bring those who are younger! We do love playing in the play area of this theatre, but as I have previously spoken highly of the wonderful play area, we are going to dive right into the play that we’ve seen this time; The Lost Spells.
