Gifted¦ On Thursday, some of my family and I went for Easter afternoon tea at Elm Court, a Wyevale Garden Centre based in Gillingham, Kent. Before we went, I took a good look at the menu (who doesn’t?) The additions of hot cross buns and prosecco made this afternoon tea extra special for this time of year. Everything on the menu sounded brilliant, so I was just hoping it would live up to my expectations.

Review: A whale of a time with gelli and slime
Gifted Autumn and I really enjoy sensory play. Of course, it’s great for her development too. Amongst other things, it helps to develop fine motor skills and aid creativity. We recently tried out Gelli Baff, Slime Baff and Slime Play from Zimpli Kids.
Review: Gottex Profile Rainforest High Neck Swimsuit
Gifted I don’t know about you, but all the recent warmer sunny weather has made me think ahead to summer. I’ve enjoyed taking a moment to just enjoy feeling the warmth of the sun on my face and daydream about summer holidays and spending time on the beach. Of course, if you’re staying in the UK, preparation is key. You never know quite when warm weather will hit and how long it lasts! So, as we begin to emerge into holiday season, whether you’re staying at home or abroad, now is the time to start looking for the perfect swimming costume or bikini!
Review: Dinner at Côte Brasserie, Maidstone
On winter nights like these, there’s often nothing I want to do more than sit somewhere cosy and eat some delicious, comforting food. I was recently invited to Côte Brasserie in Maidstone and asked my husband to come with me for a rare child-free evening out (thanks Mum and Dad!) There is something romantic and a little luxurious about French cuisine, perfect for a cold evening. It provided me the opportunity to dress up, although it certainly isn’t a necessity! Fortunately, given the heels I’d chosen, it was only a 5 minute walk from the three nearest car parks. Stepping inside, I was excited to see what Côte Brasserie would be like as I’d never been to any of the restaurants in the chain before.
Review: Dinotropolis Adventure Park with a toddler
Last Friday, we went to check out Dinotropolis Adventure Park which opened at Bluewater last month. Autumn loved dinosaurs, so as soon as I heard about it I thought she’d enjoy it. In fact, the night before, we’d had dinner at neighbouring Rosa’s Thai Cafe and she’d been excitedly shouting “DINOSAUR!” at the advert on the wall! As we headed to our booking at 2pm, we were looking forward to some lunch and dinosaur themed fun.
