Jessica has just turned 5 and the summer holidays are sadly nearly over :’-( I have been Instagramming our adventures because, as always, I don’t feel like I have done a lot with her. Looking back we have had an awesome time and she has been a delight to spend time with (on the whole ;-))!

A quick breakdown of what we have been up to! Colchester zoo, playdates run by Norwich city council, camping in Wales, climbed to the peak of Snowdon, long country walks, days at the beach, camping with friends, flying a kite, riding bikes, meeting up with friends at the park, party in the park …. the list goes on! I got Jessica a fab book from the National trust, ’50 things to do before 11 3/4′. We have really enjoyed working our way through this. I would highly recommend it. It’s been really lovely looking through it and chatting about all the different things. Reminds me a lot of my childhood and the adventures I got up to as a child. Please comment below with any other books you recommend for outdoor adventures for kids.

This Summer holidays I decided to take quite a bit of time off work and I’m planning to do the same again next year. Children are only little once and I don’t want to miss this lovely age. I have already set the online calendar up for next year. So please tell free to book ahead. Please don’t hesitate to contact me at this time. I would prefer you contacted me with any problems, bookings or anything! Once again I will be working more in July and September to make up for the time off in August. Please do book early as ideally, I do want to keep days completely free for quality time with my daughter.

I have put my holidays and sorted out my working hours until December 2017 in the diary. Subject to change with school things like sports day/ school trips/ disco etc. Sadly the school never gives me much notice of these things, so sometimes I need to rearrange dates due to that.
