It’s funny how things become a tradition. It can be a simple gesture or something that you aspire to do and before you know it has become a tradition. Something you want to continue year after year, or for each new child that you welcome into your family. This is the story of how a Harrods Teddy Bear became one of our Christmas Traditions…
When it comes to family traditions, visiting Drayton Manor at least once a year has become one of ours. Although…

When it comes to counting down the advent period, I recall those advent candle wreaths that were made on Blue Peter. The ones made from two wire coat hangers, tinsel and candles. With each candle lit each week leading up to Christmas. Not quite sure it would be passed by health and safety nowadays, with the combination of tinsel and naked flames.
This festive season, Harry Potter fans are invited to experience Christmas time at Hogwarts and discover how film-makers created fire, ice…
I seem to be playing catch up all the time at the moment. That juggling act of running myself down versus letting people down. Any thoughts of being organised etc. are firmly on hold. From constant illness that is sweeping through our house, which I wish quite frankly would do one. To family life feeling especially hectic with birthdays, activities and school events. I can’t even console myself that it will get better in the next few weeks as we are now in the run up to Christmas.
This year there is a big push on the four gift principles, something you want, something you need, something to wear and something to read. Whilst this concept has been around for a number of years, I think we are all more aware of the financial burden that Christmas can be. As well as the number of items we both gift and receive that are not necessary. With this in mind, I wanted to share with you the wonderful #giveabook campaign from Scholastic.

When it comes to selecting the perfect present for a friend or loved one. The easiest way to start is to think about the things that they enjoy and love. For some, it will be a hobby that they require a new piece of equipment for, for others, it will be something to add to their collection. However, what about something that they do/use every day? I’m not talking about another set of smellies or the boring gift of socks and underwear. I’m talking about the coffee that helps wake them up in the morning. The coffee that keeps them going through the mid-afternoon slump. The coffee that they crave whilst they are out and about but aren’t near a cafe (or in many cases, the cafe version is not up to scratch).
