I was worried that a little felted mouse would easily lose his shape with my little ones, but mouse has done well and hasn't lost his shape at all - despite all the handeling a two and four year old can throw at him!

I absolutely adore his long tail and little nose and Meg likes to rub his ear between her fingers like a "taggie"

Perfect Gifts from Memory Maker Jars and a Lovely Giveaway

Have you seen these wonderful award winning memory jars from Memory Maker Jars? Handmade locally by Tracy in West Wickham. 
Memory Maker Jars - Gift Memory Jar

Such a lovely gift idea, a beautiful jar full of memories to keep. Perfect for upcoming Father's Day!
Memory Maker Jars - Gift Memory Jar

Hand stamped tag, bespoke ribbons, a pencil and a stack of coordinating notelets to write your memory on - along with tips and hints of what to do.

Memory Maker Jars - Gift Memory Jar

There's a jar theme for every occasion and they make a great gift but I also love their use as an alternative guest book at weddings, christenings or special birthdays - having your guests leave a little note for you to read at a later date is such a  wonderful idea. 

Memory Maker Jars - Gift Memory Jar


A fantastic way to document a year, mile-stones, thoughts and memories - I'd have loved one as an alternative to the "baby's first year" book I forgot to fill in!

Asthma in Schools - Emergency Inhalers

Asthma Emergency Inhalers in Schools Campaign

  • There are over 1 million children with asthma in the UK, that’s 1 in 11 children and there are, on average, 2 children in every classroom with asthma.
  • Every single day there are 84 children admitted to hospital for emergency treatment for asthma and the equivalent of a classroom of children die because of asthma every year.
  • It is currently illegal for schools to have an emergency spare inhaler to use in the event of a potentially life-threatening asthma attack.
  • The government have recently announced a public consultation on spare emergency inhalers in schools. Inhalers that could be used to help a child in the event of an unexpected asthma episode, and even save a life.
  • Please visit the Asthma UK page and complete the consultation response. Every response will highlight how important this issue is to children with asthma, and their parents. But please click now – you only have until 30 May to make this difference.
The Asthma UK Helpline offers independent advice about asthma for anyone worried or who would like to talk confidentially to a specialist asthma nurse. It is open weekdays from 9am to 5pm on 0800 121 62 44.
