What are your experiences of trying to meet your children’s needs?

Hi Ruth. Id say the difficulty in meeting my son's needs are more difficult when the school holidays are upon us. April holidays are imminent and everything is so expensive and during summer when kids are off for 7 weeks it's really hard being able to afford to do the things he wants to do let alone being able to go on a holidays. Holidays, camps are very expensive too so i try to find as many things we can do for free, like the museum, workshops etc or local independent cinema where prices are really cheap in comparison to other cinemas. We just have to get creative. Thankfully we have a lovely park next to us with tennis courts so we take full advantage of that 😊
