A Day Out at Horrible Histories – Barmy Britain at Harlow Playhouse

We have very nearly seen every single Horrible Histories play. With just two left, when Horrible Histories – Barmy Britain was shown as playing locally, there was no way that we couldn’t attend! We’ve actually never been to the Harlow Playhouse before, as a family, and decided to invite along one of Kai’s friends. Since Kai’s friend was with us, he was pretty busy hanging out, and we didn’t end up getting a family photo – but that’s okay, as we did enjoy the performance so much – as did his mate.

Lunch and Cocktails at The Fizzy Tarte

When it comes to eating lunch, Dann and I are not big sandwich fans generally, if I am honest. Though, we were wanting something light and not too hot when the weather was wonderful, so we took at chance at The Fizzy Tarte – a gastro-pub looking place, which serves sandwiches, charcuterie boards and craft cocktails! The Fizzy Tarte does more than just lunch and brunch. They have master classes in cocktail making and afternoon tea if that’s your thing too.

Classic Reuben and Monte Cristo

A Day Out at Shepreth Wildlife Park

In the summertime, we do enjoy going off and seeing places that have animals in them! There is so much joy that can be found in seeing animals interact with each other, be fed, and so much to learn from keepers. One of the little wildlife parks near us, that feels super understated, is Shepreth Wildlife Park. Dann and I have gone a few times as a little date night, but recently we took our kids along for the adventure! Shepreth is a really reasonably priced wildlife park with a big focus on the animals there.

Wubble is so much more than a normal ball

[Ad- gifted product] I feel like I have seen advertisements for the Wubble for years now. I am not sure why I have spent so long thinking it was just a giant ball, and that we had tons of those. Robin recently asked for a Wubble, as she told me it was much more than a ball, and something that is more like a bubble in texture, somehow. Though she is only seven and sometimes is not someone to completely trust, Robin was very right – the Wubble is much more than a ball.

A Day Out at Hobbledown Heath

Over the Easter Holiday, we wanted to make the most of the reasonable weather – so we decided to go to an outdoor adventure park! Hobbledown Heath is a new adventure park with tons of different indoor and outdoor play areas, actors pretending to be fairies and magical creatures, live animals to look at, and lots of places to explore. We went when they had a word-related scavenger hunt on as well, with letters posted up – which was very fun. It’s easily a place that you can spend an entire day out at, and we could have totally spent more time there then we did!
