Maddie Moate’s Very Curious Christmas at the Garrick Theatre

Posted on December 17, 2025December 17, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] We do get along to a lot of pantomimes during the holiday season, but Maddie Moate’s Very Curious Christmas at the Garrick Theatre is a Christmas-themed play that doesn’t have any aspect of panto in it – an entertaining break from the traditional! This play is for a younger audience, primarily engaging people Robin’s page and younger. With that said, myself, Amelia and even Kai were interested in a few of the tricks and experiments that were on display.

Articulate! For Kids – Word Guessing Game

Posted on December 16, 2025December 17, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad – Gifted Products] Every other Monday we play a board game at Geek Retreat and this time the board game was Articulate! For Kids, which aims to be a fast talking card game where you need to roll dice, describe words, and guess what words are being described to you. The timer is short, the cards are long, and there is a die that you need to roll so that you can figure out exactly what word on your card you are meant to be describing.

[Ad- gifted experience] As you may have guessed, it’s Panto season in England, and we have gone to a number of pantos this year! Last year, we saw a performance of Snow White at Fairfield Halls Theatre and previously we have been to the South Mill Arts Centre to see a One Many play, so we were really excited to get along for another Christmas classic. This panto actually leaned heavily on the musical side of things, which was a neat twist on the performance.

Zzzopa Mini Ball – Bouncy and Spinny!

Posted on December 12, 2025December 12, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] It’s toy season, so we’ve been checking out a bunch of fun toys that can make a great gift for younger ones. This time, Robin’s been playing with the Zzzopa Mini Ball, which comes in a few different colors. We went with pink, which is such a cute color and perfect for Robin, who is a bit of a girly girl. This ball isn’t just a throwing ball, it’s one that is solid feeling, with two harder plastic bits at the top and bottom, making it into a spinning fidget that you can play with, without throwing it around.

Lovely Breakfast at Bakers and Roasters

Posted on December 11, 2025December 11, 2025 by Jupiter

We love food, and as I have been cutting down on eating meat, I did went to try out some more vegan dishes. Dann suggested Bakers and Roasters, which was on our way to ARTIS Zoo, and it felt like the perfect fit. The whole place had a sort of hipster cafe vibe, with someone welcoming us and seating us as soon as we arrived. The place was half full of people chatting and eating. They did have a display case of freshly made pastries and a menu of coffees, but we came for food.
