How minimalist and careful-colour design can bring small spaces to life at home

We’ve previously written about how you can reinvent a small space, for instance, making the corner of a small room into a functional office space, and so I want to spend a little bit of time talking about some of my previous experience doing merchandising and layout work in retail and non-retail spaces, and about how lessons from that can help you further optimise a space.

Learn Science with the Ultimate Gross Science Kit

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to science, it’s always good to get children interested in learning science, especially if it can be done in a really fun and interactive way.

This kit comes with 12 different, gross, scientific experiments. Many of them come with everything you need, however, some do need average household items like ketchup and water.

Testing Higgidy’s New Veggie Slices

[Ad- gifted products] Our household loves Higgidy! Whether it is picnic time or we are looking for quick, yummy food to take with us on the go, we often reach for Higgidy products. Recently, they have announced their brand new range of Veggie Slices and sent us some as a sneak preview, before they come into our local supermarkets on April 27th.

Excited to try these out, we heated ours up in the oven. They can also be eaten straight out of the package, of course, if you don’t want to spend the time heating them up or would rather pack them into a lunch that you can eat on the go. Higgidy has three different flavors for these slices, which we are going to talk about individually.

Giving Your Cat CBD: 4 Things You Should Know

Similar to when you take any vitamin, and it benefits the body as the amount of that vitamin increases, the same can be said for CBD oil because it triggers reactions in the body’s endocannabinoid system to regulate mood, pain, and sleep.

Now let’s apply that same ideology to giving CBD to a pet. Humans and cats both share a similar endocannabinoid system; therefore, when cats make use of CBD oil, they will gain the same positive effects from it that human beings will experience.

You may already be aware of the tremendous health benefits of CBD, such as its ability to reduce pain, eliminate symptoms associated with anxiety and depression by providing a calming effect, and assist people who are undergoing chemotherapy.

A Day Out at the Horrible Histories Live Onboard! Terrible Thames

When looking for some fun things to do with the kids, we found that Horrible Histories was doing another live event. As Kai really loves Horrible Histories, and often we are looking for events he will enjoy, we had to book up tickets and see what it was like. The Horrible Histories Live Onboard! Terrible Thames was a really wonderful tour all up and down the Thames river in London.
