Finding sports that your children love to get involved with can sometimes be a little bit of trial and error. I, like most parents want my girls to find a hobby they love and look forward to as well as being great exercise and good for developing social skills. We’ve tried the dancing, we’ve done the swimming but after a few weeks and once they’d learnt to swim they lost interest. So we’ve been looking for something new, something a little different and we found Hockey! The girls were invited to join a six week Hockey Heroes program with England…
Finding mid-week family dishes that suit everyone can, at times be a challenge.

We were very kindly invited to The Vintage Inns newly refurbished Lambs Green Inn in Corfe Mullen to enjoy a lunch in the gorgeous new surroundings. With 186 country pubs dotted across the UK Vintages Inns are never too far…
Cosy nights in with my girls are my favourites, Arla provided the girls and I all we needed for a ‘goodness night in’ We couldn’t wait to get stuck in to our box of goodies. We snuggled up with some delicious hot chocolates made with Arla Goodness in our newly customised mugs! We ate freshly popped pop corn (some more than others cough cough).
