Category: Travel

I love seeing new places, going on holiday and travelling with my family. Travel and kids may not always seem like the best idea but in the last few years I have learnt so much from it and now it feels so natural and each time we go I am eager to get away again on the next adventure. Whether it is a holiday in the UK or abroad we have fun whatever we get up to and it is always the highlight of my year.

In this category I cover topics to help you out, like if you are flying with a baby, having to keep a toddler entertained on a flight or even if you need help getting through those holiday blues. I also document how we have got on, what places we have loved and where we have visited in the past.

Travel with kids doesn’t have to be hard and it can be so much fun!

Vacations with an Elderly Parent

Posted on by Emma Reed

*Collaborative Post

Travelling with an elderly parent can come with some real challenges, but it can also be very rewarding. Vacations are a great way of bonding closer together and providing your loved ones with amazing memories. By including your parent or parents in your vacation plans, you get to give them a real sense of belonging, and for the elderly, isolation and loneliness can be very real worries. While there are plenty of reasons why bringing your parents on vacation is a good idea, there are some potential barriers to tackle. Continue reading “Vacations with an Elderly Parent” →

8 Reasons Why Our Florida Holiday Was Absolutely Amazing!

Posted on by Emma Reed

*Collaborative Post

In March this year, we visited Florida for the very first time. If you have read some of my other blogs you will know that this wasn’t a holiday that had been planned well in advance, in fact, we only knew six months prior because the idea came about due to my husband needing to go out there for work. As it was so far to travel to and because none of us had ever been to Florida before, Continue reading “8 Reasons Why Our Florida Holiday Was Absolutely Amazing!” →

Disney firework display at Walt Disney World

Top Tips For Watching The Firework Display At Walt Disney World

Posted on by Emma Reed

When you visit Walt Disney World I think one thing we all aim to do is make it to the firework and awesome light projector show at the castle. It’s a highlight of your visit and something you’ll never see anywhere else in the world. I was literally blown away. I never expected the Disney firework display to be that good and I could have easily watched it all over again, like, immediately all over again!

This being our first time was all a learning curve. I’d heard the rumours that you need to get there over an hour early, that you need to be at the front to truly enjoy it, that you need to battle the crowds to get through and to some extent there is a bit of truth in this but there is really no need to panic over it. This is how we found it and our top tips for watching the firework display at Walt Disney World. Continue reading “Top Tips For Watching The Firework Display At Walt Disney World” →

Kids Will Be Kids, Even On Holiday!

Posted on by Emma Reed

Unless you haven’t been following me for very long, you’ll know that we have just had the holiday of a lifetime in Florida (I may have mentioned it once or twice!) I’ve been on Instagram sharing my brilliant photos, I’ve popped some albums up on my personal Facebook page and I’ve even written a few blogs in the couple of weeks since coming home but there was something that wasn’t documented, there were things I didn’t want to take photos of and there were memories I am going to block out forever. Yes, my kids still acted like kids! Continue reading “Kids Will Be Kids, Even On Holiday!” →

Visiting Clearwater Marine Aquarium

Posted on by Emma Reed

Of all the things we got up to whilst in Florida, one of my favourite days was our visit to Clearwater Marine Aquarium. This is not your typical aquarium, which, for me, is perfect because I really am not a fan of animals and creatures being kept in captivity. The Clearwater Marine Aquarium is a rescue centre and has taken in thousands of Continue reading “Visiting Clearwater Marine Aquarium” →
