Talk to me, please! About anything. That brilliant new drama you watched on the telly last night. The appalling service at the restaurant you went to at the weekend. Have a moan about the friend who’s really annoying you right now. Fill me in on the latest gossip from your...
The big talk of the playground for Little Miss E and her friends is wobbly teeth and visits from the tooth fairy. Most mornings at drop off, one of her little friends will run up to me to show me a tooth hanging on by a thread or a big...
The holidays are over, the children are back in school. But there’s still plenty of family events taking place in and around Cardiff this month. From book festivals to bake offs, and classical music to Disney favourites, there’s plenty to keep you busy this month. Please note, all events are...
We are certainly lucky in South Wales when it comes to free family days out. I’ve been trying to get through the Easter holidays without spending a fortune and the last week has seen us visiting St Fagans National History Museum, The Cardiff Story, Central Library, Cwmcarn Forest Drive, and...
Living in north Cardiff, our regular parks are Roath, Heath and the Rec at Penylan. But yesterday, we headed to the west of the city for a morning at Victoria Park. We’ve been here several times before, but not for a little while, so I thought it’d make a fun...

I’m excited to announce that Cardiff Mummy Says is now an official blogger ambassador for The Red Dragon Centre – and to celebrate the start of this new partnership, I have a brilliant giveaway for one lucky reader and their family, who will be treated to a fun day out at...
Toddler Boy I was playing happily on the kitchen floor recently with his toy cars, so I nipped to clean the adjoining downstairs bathroom. I could hear the sound of furniture scraping across the floor… and came back out to find him in the kitchen sink. Yes, actually IN the...
Cardiff is a great place for families. Whether you live here or are visiting, there’s so much to do. From a castle, a stadium and museums to theatre, cinema and bowling, there’s plenty to do in the centre of Cardiff itself and because the city is so compact, it’s easy...
I don’t think I have ever heard my children laugh so much at a book, ever. The first time I read The Book With No Pictures to them, they were pretty much crying with laughter. We had to read it three times in a row. We could have read it...
I wasn’t going to write anything about the whole ‘Jamie Oliver says breastfeeding is easy’ saga of a couple of weeks ago. I read excellent articles on the subject in pretty much every national newspaper and countless thought-provoking blog posts. They were all written by women who’d had real difficulties...
