All these things and more – that’s what Christmas means to me my love.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and I can now say I am really, really excited that Christmas Day is so close. 2013 has been a fantastic year for Fashion-Mommy, but I am now getting ready to spend some quality time with those I love the most. So I thought I would wish all the Fashion-Mommy readers and supporters a very Merry Christmas, hope Santa makes all your dreams come true this year.

Loving the Christmas Markets!
Last weekend I made the most of the mild weather by visiting not one, but two Christmas Markets. Trip one took in the Lincoln Christmas market, set in and around the beautiful surroundings of Lincoln Castle.

Choosing the right baby car seat – inspiration from Prince George
One of the most important things an expectant/new parent has to do is choose a car seat. It is also one of the scariest. New parents aren’t allowed to take baby home unless the car seat has been inspected by the hospital, and it goes without saying that the safety of the new baby is paramount in the parent’s mind. Luckily, there are now really great options when it comes to choosing a car seat, with Prince William giving some inspiration. No-one could forget that fabulous July day when Prince William and Duchess Kate emerged from St Mary’s Hospital, Paddington, with their tiny baby Prince. And what many people commented…

National Geographic Kids Explosive Earth
If your little one has more than a passing interest in Science and Discovery, a visit to the National Geographic kids website is a must. Full of interesting and informative info-graphics, facts and figures, it is the perfect place to find the answer to a science question, do a bit of research for homework, or just generally read about the planet, space, nature and natural phenomenon. The National Geographic Kids website has just published a fun info-graphic on volcano facts entitled ‘Explosive Earth’. It is bright and colourful and contains all the information needed to inform your child about the terrifying and yet awe-inspiring world of volcanoes. Well worth a…
