Show review: Horrible Histories Live
Aug 07 2022
On Saturday 6th of August a family from London Mums Magazine was invited to the Garrick Theatre to watch Horrible Histories: Terrible Tudors.
Horrible Histories Live offers a wide range of educational and entertaining events for children to enjoy and the current production is certain to be enjoyed by its younger members. The Tudor period is a particularly unpleasant era of history and its darker episodes are presented in a style which reaches for panto but, at times, doesn’t make it much beyond holiday camp entertainment standard. The two actors performing never lose their energy, though, and their talents in engaging the audience bring an energy to the performance which is certain to ensure that everyone leaves with a smile on their face.
New attraction review: Gripped at Hobbledown
Aug 06 2022
On Saturday 30th of July London Mums Magazine was invited to Hobbledown and this is how our day went:
New aerial adventure park Gripped that has just opened off the Stains Road in Hounslow is a unique gem. No garish, scary rides but lots of complex, adventure play for all age groups. There are also two big features for adults and teenagers. A net park and zip/high wire/rope trail.
The adventure play areas are beautifully constructed with natural materials. There are ‘puzzle’ tunnels which have to be found in order to access some of the slides. The children loved the challenge. The high net park has 45 minute slots. They use up huge amounts of energy and the children of all ages came down exhausted!
Film review: Bullet Train starring Brad Pitt
Aug 05 2022
On Tuesday 2nd of August 2022 the London Mums Magazine team was invited to review Bullet Train, directed by David Leitch.
An action packed movie with a lot of violent psychopaths packed on to one train. The movie, set on a train is full of twists and comedy.
Brad Pitt plays a role of a trained assassin ‘Ladybug’, and is given orders from his handler Maria Beetle to collect a briefcase that is in the train. Little does he know that there are other trained assassins on the train with their own motives. The pairing of the brothers ‘Tangerine’ and ‘ Lemon’ is very comical.
The healthy diet you may want to try in your family
Aug 04 2022
If you are keen to make sure that your family is as healthy as possible, one of the main areas that you will always need to look into here is of course food. Having a healthy diet is one of the most fundamentally important things that you can focus on, and it’s something that you need to make sure you are encouraging not just in yourself, but in your entire family. Should you happen to be the one who tends to prepare the food, you have a unique opportunity to help your family to be a little healthier.
One type of diet that you may want to consider in that respect is something known as pescetarianism. This is where the only meat-based foods you are eating are seafood, and there are many ways in which you might benefit from such a diet. Let’s look at this in some detail right now.
