The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show at MAC Birmingham

The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show at MAC Birmingham

[Ad-Review] Eric Carle’s, “The Very Hungry Caterpillar” is one of those classic children’s stories that everyone loves. I have vivid memories of hearing the story as a child myself. I then enjoyed reading it to Mini when she was little. I love that it’s now one of her favourite books to read to Baby Mack. When we heard that MAC (Midlands Arts Centre), Birmingham were putting on The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show, we were very excited to be invited along. It appears that we aren’t the only fans of the story, as it has been translated into 62 languages and…

The card, which is valid for a whole year allows 241 entry into hundreds of gardens nationally, including The Eden Project. We took a quick detour to Asda on our…

Breakfast With The Easter Bunny at Wyevale Garden Centres

[Ad-Review] With Mini broken up for the school holidays, we were excited to be invited along to have Breakfast with the Easter Bunny at Wyevale Garden Centres. We were up early on Sunday and travelled to Moreton Park for the event, arriving hungry and ready for breakfast. We had pre-ordered our food so that hopefully there wouldn’t be too much of a wait when we arrived. There was a good choice of food options, from a full English to smaller options like croissants and bacon sandwiches. I had chosen the full English, and Mr Mack went for the vegetarian full…
