✨ Story & Craft Club ✨
We are super excited to have the lovely Courtney from .bookcorner back to the Craft Shed📚✨

Together we are bringing you a wonderful mix of children’s books and crafts for an hour of creative fun with your little ones.

We’re kicking things off with the perfect zoo themed story - Are You There Little Tiger? 🐯 followed by a hands-on activity where children will foam clay their very own tided pottery piece.

The session begins with Courtney reading this beautiful story, with little ones encouraged to join in as much as they like.

Afterwards, they’ll get creative decorating their tiger using colourful foam clay – you can even mix the colours together to create your own unique shades!

Even better… you’ll take home your own copy of the book along with your finished craft so the story fun can continue at home.

A lovely way to combine stories, creativity and special time with your little ones. In a world full of screens, let’s bring stories to life the old-fashioned way 💛

Ok… this is a little proud mummy and step-dad moment that we just had to share 🥹🫶

For those that may not know, our son George is blind and autistic, and for the last 2 years he has been learning to DJ through DJ Archie School 🎧✨

Watching his confidence, talent and love for music grow has honestly been incredible.

His tutor Stuart is absolutely phenomenal — not just with George, but with all the young people he supports through his agency. Recently, he managed to secure an amazing opportunity for some of the kids to perform at the Isle of Wight Dance Weekender 🌴🎶

To see George up there playing a set was such an emotional and proud moment for us as a family 💗

Not only that, but he also got to meet some incredible artists… and even more amazingly, some had already seen his socials! Huge thank you to Professor Green, Aaron Crascall and Majestic for being so kind and for giving George a mention on your socials too 🫶

And I have to say… the UK Garage Brunch tent was definitely one of my highlights 🙌 Hearing my all-time favourite garage anthem “Flowers” by Sweet Female Attitude live absolutely made my weekend 🌸🎶

It honestly means so much when people tell us they’ve seen George’s DJ videos on Facebook or TikTok. Your support, comments, shares and encouragement really do make a difference.

So thank you for cheering on our boy… or should we say… DJ Blindbeats 🎧💙

Back out doing what I love most… squidging tiny hands and feet 👣💙

This week I had the absolute pleasure of visiting the lovely Nina at Baby Sensory Braintree for a super colourful Spain-themed session 🇪🇸✨

Not only was the class full of fun, vibrant energy, but there was also a beautiful fundraising twist in support of Tommy’s ❤️

I captured so many gorgeous little prints ready to be turned into special Father’s Day keepsakes, and now the personalising marathon begins before they head back to their families in a couple of weeks 🥹

But no rest for me just yet… next stop is Stacey’s Hartbeeps group next week 🎨👣

If you run a baby group or manage a nursery and would love us to come along and capture precious keepsake prints, we’d absolutely love to hear from you. Plus, we offer a percentage back for partnering with us too 💕

Captured at a recent event and I am totally in love with it. What a beautiful keepsake to treasure your fur babies forever 💛
