Summer Survival Guide

This week: how to keep children entertained for the summer holidays on a budget.

Some of us mums have a predisposition to feel guilty. Be that for not spending enough time or money with our children. We’d like you to give yourself a pass for the summer. 

• Children don’t need to be doing things all the time 
• A lot of them like a bit of down time
• Chat with other parents to tag team
• Independence check – they get older without us realising & can do a lot more themselves

Catherine will be sharing her Magical Mystery Tour tactic she used when her children were younger to manage costs. Julie shares the strategies her clients who are widowed with young families use to make the most of the time.
