Parent guilt. We have all experienced it at one time or another; I personally, feel some sort of parental guilt almost everyday! But the good news is, we’re not alone people! Did you know 80% of mums and dads will admit to regularly doubting their own parenting decisions! Eighty percent! That’s ridiculous! Why are we torturing ourselves?! […]

If you’re looking for somewhere to take the family these school holidays then Castlemaine ticks all the boxes. I must admit when I was asked if I would like to go on a weekend away with the family to Castlemaine for work, I had absolutely no idea where it was and what it’s attractions were. […]

September school holidays would have to be our all time favourite school holidays! Spring is in the air, footy finals fever has hit Melbs, the Royal Melbourne Show is on and two weeks is just the right amount of time to not get too sick of the kids (unlike Christmas school hols…eeek!) So let’s get […]

Seawinds Gardens is just a short two minute walk from the top of Arthurs Seat, located directly opposite the Enchanted Maze. The gardens are made up of a mixture of bushland and manicured gardens with a combination of both indigenous and exotic plants. William Ricketts sculptures are located throughout and there is also two look […]

We are so lucky to have access to such fantastic library facilities in the Frankston municipality. If you haven’t visited your local library for sometime then I highly recommend you do! Frankston Library is right in the heart of the city, an easy two minutes walk from Bayside Shopping Centre. Outside the walls are painted with […]

A sunny afternoon, the perfect opportunity to get the kids out of the house and into nature for a breath of fresh air. Hmm..what to do? Local park? A walk down the beach? I know! How about a treasure hunt! A Geocaching treasure hunt! We have always wanted to give Geocaching a try but to […]

Sure, it’s cold outside leading up to these winter school holidays and chances are it’s going to get colder. But when it comes to kids and being stuck at home, cabin fever is not an option and “I’m bored” is definitely not a line we as mums need to hear. Instead we need to plan […]

If you’re looking for somewhere in Victoria to take the kids this long weekend or perhaps somewhere to go for an extended stay in the school holidays then Mansfield is definitely one of those places that ticks all the boxes. We happen to have two high maintenance girls (2.5 and 5) who get car sick […]

Sandhurst or “Pleasantville” as I like to refer to it, is a quiet, lovely estate located north of Frankston not far from Carrum Downs. If you live here, then you are no stranger to the walking tracks, lakes, ducks, grassy nolls and the family friendly bike tracks. Another great feature of this estate is the […]

If there was ever a name that wrongly depicted an establishment, it is Commonfolk because Commonfolk Cafe is far from common. It’s vibrant, fresh, modern, hip and happening. And we love it! Hidden within the industrial estate of Mornington (and we mean hidden, if we hadn’t of known the exact address we would have driven straight […]
