Today is national S.T.E.M/S.T.EA.M day, a day devoted to inspiring children to take an interest in Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Maths.

In honour of this I have collaborated with Children’s author Tom Moorhouse and his Blog Tour.  The River Singers by Tom Moorhouse was one of […]

I love shopping for gifts for other people. I really take my time shopping around to find something that I think is really unique and personal to them (and at the best price of course!) Over the summer we have quite a few children’s birthdays among family and friends so I’ve been having a look […]
