Our February Books

This month we had a massive influx of new books. Our February books may be the longest list of reads and reviews we’ve had in a long time. We’ve got picture books and chapter books and an amazing non-fiction book for kids. I love non-fiction books! I love watching my children’s minds being expanded as […]

Holey Moley Darlinghurst

During the last week of school holidays I took the kids to Holey Moley Darlinghurst. They had loved Holey Moley Newtown so much that I knew I had to take them again and I had been waiting all holiday for the perfect day. My kids LOVE Holey Moley. Love it!! This post is specific about […]

Dolittle is a great family movie, we all thoroughly enjoyed it.

Dolittle (2020)

We thought Dolittle was just lovely. And I was a complete sceptic. I’m talking about the Doctor Dolittle movie staring Robert Downey Jnr released in 2020.

The Australian War Memorial with Kids

This post focuses on how to visit the Australian War Memorial with Kids. While it may not seem to be a place to take kids, it does have a child friendly area and it’s great to expose kids to the significance of war memorials. It’s also a great activity for rainy days. One of the […]

Bouldering on the Northern Beaches: UNCo at the Mall.

We just went bouldering on the Northern Beaches and it was AWESOME. If you’ve seen the pictures on Instagram or Facebook, you’ll know how much fun both kids had. I was really unsure of the whole experience because my youngest isn’t the most agile. Our last experience like this was not a great success, she […]
