Our Trip to London with Our 4 Year Old (and how we supported his autistic needs).
This year was my husband and I’s 10 year wedding anniversary. We decided to celebrate by going to London for a couple of days. Our eldest son, J aged 4, has wanted to go to our capital for a while now (he’s seen videos on TV and Youtube). So we decided to take him along….
Big Fun in a Little City: Our role play adventures (review).
This week we had the pleasure of popping to Little City – West Suffolk (there are other Little City’s available) for a playdate with a friend and her little girl. We decided to meet up at this play group for under 5’s as it was something different to where we usually go. Little City is…
Our Family Adventure at Dower House, Norfolk (inc. disability and autism info)
I love camping. I’m not sure if it’s my girl guiding childhood or the fact I love outdoors but there’s something about being in the middle of nowhere that I enjoy. One of the places I like to go is Dower House in Norfolk. You have the option of taking a tent or a caravan,…
Days out: Newmarket Memorial Park
As we’ve had such lovely weather we decided to go and try out the Memorial Park Gardens in Newmarket, Suffolk. There’s nearby parking, close to town centre and an onsite refreshment shack. We took our 4 year old (who is autistic) and are 3 month old for the afternoon. We started off exploring the park….

Days Out: Our trip to Banham Zoo
It’s half term and I was determined to enjoy the week off with little man. We found a ‘free child’s entry’ voucher for Banham Zoo so headed down for a visit (saving £10.85 per child). The only downside to the voucher is that you can’t book online with it. I had a read on social…
Days Out: Sea Life Centre Great Yarmouth
Today we went to the Sea Life Centre in Great Yarmouth. J has been watching YouTube videos of various sea life centres and was eager to see some Rays. The centre was easy to find and there was easy parking nearby (no parking onsite). A big plus is that it’s right by the beach so…
Alex Morleys ‘Christmas Spectacular’ at Stonham Barns…a festive family show (review)
We were fortunate enough to be invited to see Alex Morley Productions ‘Christmas Spectacular’ at Stonham Barns, Suffolk to provide a review of the performance.

What Is It Like To Visit Legoland With An Autistic Child?
In August 2018 we visited Legoland Windsor as our family holiday. My little boy, J is autistic. Going on days out and over night stays are stressful but we love to do them as they are such great experiences. J loves Lego. We spent a lot of time watching the various Lego movies and Tv…

This meant that there was a lot of coordinating and organising. I have split my review into two posts. This post is all about…
