Buying the right shoes for Babies and Children can be confusing. Experts say that bare feet is best for babies and young children, as children’s feet are soft and pliable making them prone to damage. My daughter Elizabeth is 10 months old and has recently started ‘cruising’ around the furniture and walking holding our hands, […]
The lovely Kate from Bumps and Bashes Last week I attended a first aid class. Now most people who know me are aware I tend to panic easily and am not always the best person to have around in a medical emergency! I have always left all the first aid side of things to my […]
Earlier this year we were chosen to be one of the GORE-TEX Big Days 2015 families and both Ben and Elizabeth were sent some lovely new shoes to wear for their summer adventures! We’ve enjoyed so many adventures this summer it was difficult to choose which one to share with you, I settled on […]
