Every year on the first week of March parents are faced with a challenge: preparing new costumes for the annual World Book Day. You cannot get away with recycling last year’s outfits because kids remember and they are also awarded prizes for the best costumes at school. Last year I came up with a quirky costume idea and thought I share it with London Mums along with other creative costumes I…
Half term is always challenging for parents. Kids’ entertainment is expensive so the best way forward to mums on a budget (most of us) is to get organised with lots of FREE stuff to do. Here are London Mums favourite FREE ACTIVITY SHEETS from the latest and most entertaining movies.

Here is my latest review of Disney On Ice, which celebrates 100 Years of Magic! The show is in London at the O2 Arena until the 4th January 2015 and then opens in the Spring with a special Frozen show.
It was a bit disappointing not to see Disney’s Frozen Princesses at this show but the great news is that Ana, Elsa and Olaf will star in a new special show from this March 2015…
If dining out is one of your favourite pastimes, London is the place to be. The different styles of cuisine, some of the world’s most inventive and creative chefs, and the stunning range of venues all combine to offer eating experiences to rival those found anywhere around the globe.
