We have SO many lovely memories of visiting @carterssteamfair over the years. You may have heard that this is their last ever tour as the owners are looking to find a permanent site for the fair.
We went to our last ever Carters Fair at Hersham Green over the weekend. The sun was out and the kids had an absolute blast going on their favourite rides.
The fair is still on at Hersham Green this weekend 14-15th May - if you love traditional fairground rides and games make sure you visit.
Thanks for the memories Carters!](https://scontent-lhr8-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.29350-15/280501056_1083336758914681_2757545840317145772_n.jpg?_nc_cat=111&ccb=1-6&_nc_sid=8ae9d6&_nc_ohc=Zjn93eUaVHsAX_SbvVt&_nc_ht=scontent-lhr8-1.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&oh=00_AT9Kt9qatk0iZfcAc3UIBmCVL4wTSFCQ7x-7WaUmq_i0wg&oe=6286789D)

With the Easter holiday fast approaching I know it’s going to be tricky to keep the boys busy while both Mr H and I are working from home. They will want lots of screen time (obvs) but we’ll also be encouraging them to get some fresh air and play outside as well as do some other activities that are screen-free.
K’Nex is a great activity that both the boys can get stuck into. It allows them to get creative and make all sorts of 3D creations and is something that will hold their attention for longer than just a few minutes!
Both the K’Nex Beginner Builds and City Builders set from @BasicFunUK are available to buy from @johnlewis I’ve written a more detailed review over on my blog (link in bio)](https://scontent-lhr8-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.29350-15/277476971_399473911603328_6069866992645283868_n.jpg?_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-6&_nc_sid=8ae9d6&_nc_ohc=VnhQRmQX3XkAX_6aXp7&_nc_ht=scontent-lhr8-1.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&oh=00_AT_hZyiVrQS7HUXZ5HIfoSG34kFJ894aSw9-Bj5DbhZnOg&oe=6286A83D)

![[AD] We’re halfway through the summer holidays already - it can be hard trying to juggle everything and keep the kids happy can’t it?
I’ve sent the boys off to @barracudas_activity_day_camps a few times this summer as they love all that they have to offer. There’s a range of activities to choose from every day and the chance to make new friends too.
There are still spaces available for camp and you’re not tied in to do a full week either as you can pick and choose dates that suit you depending on availability.](https://storage.googleapis.com/stateless-www-suburban-mum-com/2021/08/06576d85-239170469_2916949185233284_8472965703317535574_n-1.jpg)
