Does anyone have recommendations for an indoor play area for toddlers? Bonus points if there is a coffee shop in it or nearby!

Where to take little one for their first birthday?

What do you do in the afternoon / evening now that it’s dark?

I’m finding the 4pm - 7.30pm bit of the day is really dragging now that it’s cold and dark outside. I used to go for a walk with lg in the pram or go over to the park but can’t do that as much now. What are you all doing to keep your little one entertained before dinner and bed?

But there was probably about 30 scattered around in total and he was only playing with 6 at...

Thinking of taking my son for his second birthday. Is it worth it or better to wait til he’s older? He loves trains and transport and we are going to get the train there to make a day of it.

Has anyone brought a yoto/Tonie player for their little one? Thinking about it for Christmas as my little girl loves music and dancing and they have cards with nursery rhymes/classical music/ballet songs which I know she would just love.

Screen free

We made the mistake of introducing Disney while our little one was sick and now he wants to watch it whenever he can. He will throw a small fit when we shut it off. Any advice on how to become screen free again? Or fun activities to do?
