All of them are very important. To connect with nature is the easiest way to reduce stress and anxiety, being outside helps us to feel …

Review: LEGO Build The Change Platform
This is a sponsored post. Are you a LEGO fan too? Yes, same here! As a child I preferred LEGO over dolls.

Our First Visit To KidZania London
Press trip. Back in October half-term, just before the second nation-wide lockdown we were lucky enough to visit KidZania London. We were invited to explore the place for the first time as we have never been before. I would say the children would have been a too little before, but now they are at the right age. I’d say it’s …
