Scotland Street School Museum
The Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition is on just now in Scotland Street School Museum. I always go to see it, but this year thought we’d combine it with a trip for the toddler to have a wander round…

Child Safe Zone for Glasgow
As someone who has a young toddler who doesn’t give a tiny toss where her adult is most of the time, I think that having a Child Safe Zone for Glasgow City Centre is probably a good idea. Not that…
The toddler and the pussy cat, not quite in a pea green boat
Tinky is our rescue cat of 10 years, possibly Turkish Van, at least 14 years old, boss of every dog she ever met (and that’s a lot), arch-nemesis of the hoover, and fan of tuna and lazing in sunny spots,…
A cool infographic illustrating young child development stages
Thought this was a really cool infographic that illustrates the main thing you need to know about each age until your kid is 5. “Don’t underestimate me” accompanied by That Look (you know the one) is pretty much the little…
Heads of Ayr Farm Park
There’s so much to do at Heads of Ayr Farm Park. There are play areas galore, trampolines, animals to feed, soft play. Great day out. Here’s our review!
Lollipop Land
We’d heard good things about Lollipop Land soft play in East Kilbride so we thought we’d check it out. It’s located in PlaySport, the same leisure precinct as Air Space, but once you’ve turned off the main road it’s really…
Getting a 2 year old to bed is like…
This made me laugh. Because this is exactly what getting a 2 year old to bed is like! 🙂
How Time Has Flown
Sop alert: This time 2 years ago I was in the labour ward, probably at about 7cms, and the little lady had decided she was staying in there. How time has flown! My tiny baby is now a little girl….
Nana Momo Makes Handmade Kids Clothing
I’ve been meaning to write this for a while. When I was trying to find the photos it almost came out like an ode to my 6-months-ago-18-month-old but I stopped myself…! You know those outfits that your kid wears at least twice…
Calderglen Country Park
There’s plenty green space to run or have a picnic in and little animal lovers will enjoy the children’s zoo. The walks down by the river are lovely too.
Disclosure: I am a Gaelic learner
I love languages. I’ve always wanted to really learn a language other than English, but I’ve always had an excuse not to: too busy with studying, 20’s nonsense, working, travelling, a wedding here, a honeymoon there, a baby… I have…
Dinner at Browns Restaurant Glasgow
We were out with family last week for a little celebration dinner. It wasn’t really in aid of anything, but who needs a reason to celebrate? We were meeting in town, and decided to wander along to George Square, to…
Tiny Academy at The Climbing Academy
Like pretty much every other toddler on the planet, the little lady absolutely loves to climb. Everything. She’s a maniac. And she clearly has no understanding (not even a tiny inkling) of what it might feel like to fall off that fence or…
Swimming at Eastwood Park Pool
We met some baby buddies at Eastwood Pool recently. I’d heard rave reviews about it from some other mummy friends, so we had to check it out! The Pool There are two parts to the pool area. There’s the main…
Palacerigg Country Park
We braved the Scottish summer and went to Palacerigg Country Park. Nice little childrens farm and good swing park. Nice walk for dogs. Great little day out.
Happiness is Cuddles
Truth. I love Sundays. This is pretty much what’s happening in my house today.
