This year, we wanted to take the children out to a light trail! There are quite a few large light trails that aren’t too far from us, but as the children really love going out to Hyland Park, we figured Enlightened at Hyland Estate, would make for an interesting one to visit. Enlightened is an annual lights festival, but we had never been before, and this year, the website stated it was bigger and better than ever – which sounds pretty good to us!
[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to books, Kai enjoys reading one of two types; Minecraft or Horrible Histories. You can find both of these books littered around his bedroom and on his special shelf of books in our living room. Kai’s best friend George is a big history lover, so he naturally is always into learning more and discovering whatever he can about history. So, he was quite pumped when he got his hands on the Horrible Histories Horrible Christmas Almanac.

[Ad- gifted product] Previously, this year, we reviewed the Lapland Mailroom website, which was quite easy to use! We ended up ordering three letters from the website, all customised, for Kai, Amelia and Robin. These letters have made their way to our home, adding a lot of magic to the whole Santa experience and to this time of year. We let the children pick up the letters from the door mat, where Amelia found them first, must like we did last year.

[Ad- Collab] There are tons of things to do in London, especially around the holiday month! We love getting into the Christmas spirit by visiting London and checking out all of the different places within London to explore. If, unlike me, you live a bit far out from London, you should consider traveling into the area with the VIP pass, which will give you massive deals on places to stay, which can really make a difference in your experience. The VIP Pass gives you 7d/6n FREE hotel stay as a sign up bonus when you purchase the premium membership pass. But, let’s get into some of the fun things that you can do in London in December.
Winter Wonderland is an annual festival that happens right in Hyde Park in London. It’s a massive Christmas-themed market, fair grounds, and festive area. You can meet Santa there, eat a bunch of different foods, ride some rides, and pick out some Christmas gifts for your loved ones. We always go to Winter Wonderland in the month of December. Ensure that you do pre-book, though, so that you can make it in. There are different priced tickets, and if you go midweek in the morning, it’s actually completely free to enter Winter Wonderland, which can be a big help to your budget.

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to bouncy balls, there are tons and tons in our house hold. We have a whole back yard box filled with balls of various sizes, as well as smaller bouncy balls in the house. Having different varieties of bouncing balls is something that most families do have, however, the Waboba Moonshine ball is a bit different – it actually lights up. This ball looks like the moon and lights up like the moon, which has peaked the curiosity of everyone in the household.
