Taking children to weddings (and other events!)

Wedding and party season is fast approaching which is so lovely and exciting, but can sometimes be tricky when you throw little children into the mix! In our episode this week we talk about things that might be a challenge and how you can make taking children to events a bit easier for all of you.  

 

We also covered: 

 

  • How the venues that parties and weddings are held in tend to be huge open spaces – perfect for running and making lots of noise!! 
  • Becks’s wedding and how she prepared her twins (age 2 at the time) within an inch of their lives 😉 
  • Knowing what to expect at the event and managing your own expectations. 
  • The FOMO is real at occasions like this – how do you make it work? 
  • Being ready with a plan B if your children don’t want to participate in any activities provided. 
  • Some ideas to help keep children occupied and what’s good to take with you. 
  • Dealing with possible overwhelm at family parties (for you and the children!). 
  • Taking a new baby to events.
