A Day Out at IWM Churchill War Rooms

[Ad- gifted experience] As he gets older, Kai is getting more and more interested in history, but perhaps most specifically in areas that his schooling have touched on; WWII, the Tudors and Anglo-Saxon Britain. As such we’ve taken him along to a ringwork and bailey fortification, manor houses and museums over the years, but a great opportunity presented itself in the form of visiting the Churchill War Rooms recently, and so we headed over.

Despite summer being in full swing, we have been aiming at keeping our learning up in the Hadley-Sullivan house hold! Even though we have been taking many trips out and going on holiday, there has still been time for reading and learning. Robin has continued to enjoy her The Bear Can Read Koala Box. This month included a lot of information about a Bear Picnic, though we haven’t been able to organise a picnic with teddies due to how busy we have been, we had spent time going through the worksheets and reading the book in this month’s box.

Mini HORNIT – Bike and Scooter light with sound effects

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to riding bikes, Amelia, Kai and Robin have all been enjoying biking around for the last two years! The girls have gone from being quite wobbly – Amelia with training wheels – to confident and flying along. Amelia’s training wheels have even come off. They love taking their bikes out and riding around parking lots or along sidewalks. We also have started going on night time walks around, bringing flash lights with us, and decked their bikes out with wheel lights, in case they want to ride in the late evenings. The Mini HORNIT seemed like a perfect addition and fit with our biking set up!

A Day Out at Jump In Ipswich

[Ad- gifted experience] Our family, as you may know, really loves days out! With summer holidays here and in full swing, we’ve been looking at new places to take the children, that they’d enjoy and get out some of their energy at. In the last year, the children have had a big interested in trampolines – so much so that we purchased a trampoline for our backyard, so that they can go out and jump after school or during the day, making use of our generously sized yard space. With this in mind, everyone was pretty hyped to check out Jump In Ipswich, which was previously Bounce, but now has had a bit of a clean up!
