If you’re wondering what to do this weekend with the family, here’s your answer. We had a fabulous day recently at Montalto Winery in Red Hill. Invited for lunch for a friends birthday, hubby was playing cricket so I was a little hesitant about taking the kids to a winery by myself but I needn’t […]

We are now officially into the school holidays and we technically (not including the weekends) have another eight days ahead of us to try and think of ways to entertain the kids on their school break. Personally, I don’t really want to spend too much money so, weather permitting, we will be frequenting our Favourite […]

A few weeks ago we wrote about our Favourite little parks in Frankston. Well,  we have some more! We are truly spoilt for choice when it comes to great little places to take our children in and around the Frankston area and the newest addition to the neighbourhood is Jubilee Park Playground. JUBILEE PARK  ADDRESS – Corner Hill Street […]

 Some of my fondest memories growing up were our school holiday trips to the city. We used to visit the Myer “kids” exhibitions, whether it be Barbie or Lego, have “all-you-can-eat” lunch at Pizza Hut on Bourke Street (sadly no longer there!) and visit the lolly bar located at the Lonsdale Street Myer, spending the $1 or $2 we had choosing lollies […]

Did you know the Frankston municipality has over 50 “little” parks located in and around the city and outer suburban streets? Over the next few weeks we will be sharing our favourite little parks, perfect “go to’s” when the kids need to run off some steam and mama needs a breath of fresh air! HAVANNAH RESERVE […]

Mornington is such a great place to spend  a summers afternoon with the fam. My brother, sister-in-law, nephew and niece are currently visiting from WA so yesterday, we decided to load all the kids (and Pops!) into the car and take an afternoon drive down to Mornington for some rock pooling and ice-cream. When we […]

Every time I visit the McClelland Gallery and Sculpture Park it still amazes me how lucky we are to have access to this treasure trove right here on the Mornington Peninsula. The other thing that blows my mind about this sensational art haven is that it’s free to enjoy! How can that be?! It’s a […]

Cabin Fever? Kids driving you a little coo coo?! Indoor play centers are the best to run of a little steam whilst mama sits and sips a cuppa! Great for all ages, we really are spoilt for choice when it comes to indoor play centers on the Mornington Peninsula. Here are a just a few […]
