Taking kids on holiday

Hey all. My little one turns 4 in August so is starting school in September. I don’t know if I’m being silly but I’m sure I’ve seen something before saying that you can take kids out of school (without getting fined) before they turn 5 years old? Does anyone know if this is true? Thanks!

Booked seats - 2 adults with a 1 year old

I'm terrified of not booking seats and ending up split from my partner and having our 1 year old on my lap to entertain alone for a long flight - Is this likely to happen or will they keep us together? I'll take the cost if I have to but could do with saving the money 🤣 Thank you!

Walk with Me in Longmont!

Let's take a stroller walk in the park! I'm fine with keeping it light, just chatting about motherhood and pop culture--and not getting too political or religious. I'm just looking for a walking buddy (or two)!

Vacation or staycation?

Which do you prefer? (family with young kiddos here!) Husband took a week off of work with zero plans and it was awesome! We got nothing done around the house but we just did what we wanted and enjoyed family time! Now the kids are wanting him nonstop rather than me being default parent so we’ll be sad when he goes...

Baby grows with folding socks

I saw an American lady have a baby grow where the socks can be folded up during play so that the baby learns to crawl better or have some sensory input. Do you guys know if these exist in the UK? I wanted to get some for the summer
