[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to coloring, Robin and Amelia are both little artists! They love experimenting with new crafting tools, from mess free paint pens to crafting with clay! Recently, we got our hands on Marvin’s Amazing Magic Pens, which are super interesting, color changing pens that can be used to color in a whole new way. The girls were really interested in them, especially as they are called Magic Pens.
[Ad- gifted experience] Ever since going to Jump In, we have been really interested in trampoline and air parks! We frequent the one nearest to us so often that Robin actually had her birthday party there last month, so that she could show the place off to all of her friends. So when we heard about a new, inflatable air park opening up that’s not far away from us, we had to go check it out! Inflata Nation Colindale is Inflata Nation’s new London branch, which just opened!
Unlike other inflatable parks, Inflata Nation Colindale doesn’t have their versions of socks to purchase. This is actually the first airpark we’ve ever gone to that just let us jump with our own socks! This is really convened, as it is a bit of a pain remembering what socks we need and getting the kids to keep an eye on them, etc. Being able to just go in with what we have also means there is no added ticket price. There are cubbies for shoes to the side of the park, as well as paid lockers if you have more to store, and the parking at this park is free and well organised, giving plenty of options.
[Ad- gifted product] The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee is coming up, and we’ve been quite excited about this huge event! As an American living in England, the kids have told me all about the Queen’s Jubilee, how long she has been queen, and all things queen related. We then made some cute pictures and art with Little Brian paint sticks and did some face painting decorations, to get ready to celebrate. Little Brian is also doing a competition, where you can make decorations with your child using Little Brian Paint Sticks, and upload your image, for a chance to win a huge bundle of goodies.
[Ad- gifted experience] All of us were invited down to Devon, to spend the weekend away at Woolacombe Bay Holiday Park, in their Twitchen House section! Woolacombe Bay has a number of holiday parks in Devon, all of which are quite similar. Excited, we loaded the kids up right after school and drove to Devon. I use to actually live in the Devon area, and had never been to a holiday park, so I was really curious as to what we would be able to do in this holiday park. We were specifically in the Twitchen House area of Woolacombe Bay, though it’s really close to the other sections of the Holiday Park, and has a really similar layout to other areas too.
[Ad- gifted experience] The other day, Dann and I went back to Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch to watch the musical The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole. When Dann was younger, he actually read the book this play was based on, however I had not experienced this book, and was interested in what we would see. The Secret Diary of Adrien Mole is about a young teenager, having a particularly eye opening and changing year.
