Guest Post - Hair Care For Babies And Toddlers

  Looking after your child’s hair is just like looking after any other part of their body and hair needs attention and proper nurture to keep your child’s scalp lovely and healthy.

Last week when we were at Wheelgate Adventure Park Bob chose a brilliant time to do a poo. We had just battled through the snow to get to the soft play area, where there were no toilets. I had just removed Bob’s snowsuit, shoes, hat, scarf and gloves. Bob had just climbed to the top level of the soft play area when she went quiet and started acting suspicious. I confirmed that she had pooed and started preparing for our [click here to read on]
