How are those new year healthy eating resolutions going? I’ve already featured a round-up of my favourite healthy soup recipes, as well as my favourite healthy smoothie blends on Cardiff Mummy Says this month. But if you’re looking for inspiration for nutritious, low-fat meals that are still comforting and warming...
It takes me forever to get anywhere with Toddler Boy I, my 21-month-old third child, these days. We have entered the realms of toddler pace – a world I remember well from his big brother and sister, but with which I am slowly becoming reacquainted now that my youngest child...
I’ve written about Techniquest before on Cardiff Mummy Says, but today I want to focus on their toddler days, because they’re such good fun and really worth a visit. The monthly toddler days usually take place on the first Friday of the month during term time, from 9.30am-4.30pm. As well...
The Jumperoo was the first thing to go. Via Gumtree. I don’t think I will ever forget its theme tune, or the excitement on all three of my children’s faces as they jumped around in it. But it’s been a while since any of them fitted in it and it’s...
After dropping Little Miss E to school and Little Man O to Cylch (Welsh playgroup) this morning, Toddler Boy and I found ourselves with just under an hour to spare before our online shopping delivery was due to arrive. We hadn’t really planned anything other than playing in the house...

Yesterday I shared five of my favourite soup recipes – and today I’m turning my attention to smoothies. All these recipes are perfect if you’re looking to eat healthier now the festive season is over. I’ve been a big fan of smoothies for a few years now. They’re a great...
Just about everyone I know seems to be on a healthy January mission at the moment, after the excesses of the festive season. Cardiff Mummy included! So it’s soup all round in our household in an effort to make up for one too many treats over the festive season. I...
I’ve been chatting to my children about new year’s resolutions today and talking about how lots of grown ups make changes at the start of a new year of things they would like to do differently or areas of their life they’d like to improve. I’m not sure if they’ve...
I know I’m Cardiff Mummy but I grew up in Barry and a big piece of my heart will always be there. So when my children said the thing they most wanted to do this week was to go on a train, it was a no brainer as to where...
