Dear London Mums

This month we have 2 bank holidays, Jubilee celebrations and another half term… WOW! Which exactly means that for us mums it’s going to be a busy and tiring month. But we have lots of resources here on the London Mums website to help you cope.

At the end of May we will publish our print LONDON MUMS MAGAZINE (issue 6) with a special section dedicated to the Olympics and what you can do for FREE during this Jubilympic summer in London.

Meantime here are some ideas for things to do with the kids in May:

Our events’ calendar includes a selection of FREE or cost effective ways to entertain your kids during the bank holidays and half term without leaving the capital.

And if the weather is going to be rainy and grey, we have updated the ‘Get creative‘ section with lots of tips on things to do with the kids at home.

This month’s top articles include:

Helpful tips to save your water

Top-20 money saving tips for families

Lifestyle facts: JUST ONE IN THREE MARRIED BRITONS CELEBRATE THEIR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY IN STYLE

What gets me really excited this May is the Kensington Dollshouse Summer Festival – 11-13 May 2012.

Last year I visited the festival and bumped into Helena Bonham Cater browsing around and shopping for dollhouse characters.
