This day I love.......

We were invited to an event in London with Sudocrem who kindly provided travel so we could attend. We have not been asked to write a post or share our day but I wanted to do so to document my experience.

I was excited to take Little Man to London. It is rare I can travel with just one of my children and given his love for trains and buses I was so excited to see his face. I wasn't disappointed either. He was as good as gold on the train, he loved looking out the window and was just amazed that he was on a train! 

We were attending an event for Sudocrem who have launched a new my Little Sudocrem that is perfect for little green fingers. The perfect size to pop in your bag or even your pocket and with all the same properties to treat and soothe skin exposed to a harsh day. 


The event took place at Clifton Nurseries which was a real hidden gem in the centre of London. I couldn't believe such an amazing and colourful place existed in central London, completely hidden and surrounded by the tall houses on all sides. It was just a feast for all the senses. 


We were treated to a story all about growing seeds and even got the chance to plant our our sunflowers. I was shocked to discover that 73% of children had never grown a sunflower and only 6% had ever eaten a pea from a a pod! This is something we do every year so it never occurred to me that some children do not. Little Man loved pulling the carrots from the ground and planting his own sunflower, which has just started to sprout on the kitchen window. Great British Bake off winner Frances Quinn created a stunning cake and even gave us a signed copy of her book.


We unfortunately had to leave a little early as we had to get back to pick the girls up from school. Although it was a whistle stop tour it was really beautiful and we are so grateful to have been invited.


Here is a quick look at our day

We were provided with tickets to watch Disney on Ice but have not been asked to write a post or received any other compensation. I simply wanted to remember our evening and have decided to write this post myself.

A few weeks ago we made the short journey to Leeds to watch Disney on Ice at the First Direct Arena. I hand't realised at the time of booking the tickets that my eldest daughter was on residential with school, so not wanting the ticket to go to waste my youngest daughter brought a friend with her. Both girls were really excited and more so when they learnt they would get to meet Mickey and Minnie mouse. The surprise would soon continue, and something I had no idea about.


We collected our tickets and were seated on row A seat 1, I suddenly wished I had dressed up a bit and sorted my hair. I also wished I had my proper camera, but had to make do with 30% battery on my phone. The girls were so close to the ice they could touch it and then the big surprise came. Would they like to go on the ice and ride in the cart? I think their excitement went sky high at this point and they could not wait!


Little Man is still in the potty training phase I like to call toilet inspector. I therefore missed most of the beginning of the performance as I was up constantly taking him to the toilet. Although I knew he didn't need to go I still have to take him. He managed to calm down and settled in to watch the show, we were so close to the performers! 


The big moment came and the girls were whisked away with Aladdin. Grinning from ear to ear as they had fun on the ice. They are so incredibly lucky to have been given the opportunity to do that and they both haven't stopped talking about it. 

The rest of the show seemed to fly by. There were so many different characters to see, a real medley to showcase the wonderful world of Disney. 


It was a truly amazing evening that created wonderful memories and for that we are incredibly grateful for the tickets we received to watch the show and for giving the girls the opportunity to be on the ice.
