I am offering my mummyness for The Ultimate BMW Show at Santa Pod September 23rd.

We're taking Nichola so i'll be trying to keep her occupied all day and i thought why not offer to look after other kids that are going?

I should be taking toys, paper, crayons, maybe a slide and other outside toys and maybe my huge tent (all depending on how much space we have!). I will also bring biscuits, fruit and juice.

I mentioned it to Iain (HartgeH27) and he thinks it's a Great idea!

So who's interested?.....

Children at Santa Pod

1. Nichola, 2yrs
2. HartgeH27, old
3.

BACK ON TOPIC NOW!!! :D

Anyone interested?

1. Nichola, 2yrs.

i have a 2 year old and a 4 year old but in all honesty i think i'll leave them with my parents or someone. it's a long drive for them and they'll get grumpy / miserable.

anyway, i wanna act like a kid all day!!! :D

good idea though, nice one!

can people please go to this thread to talk about going down the strip.

The more kids that people want me to look after the better, if we still have the touring i'll take nichola's big slide.

1. Nichola, 2 years old.

So i've sent a message to Santa Pod to check they have no problems with me taking large outdoor toys with me to the show - i've had no reply yet.

I spoke to my local mummy and toddler group today to ask if i could borrow some of the toys for the show - they said should be okay but a deposit of £50 is needed!

I also have some designs for my banner too to show you guys where i'll be at! just need to get iain or one of the team members to have a look and tell me what they think.

Can I leave the missus with you mummy-boo?

In all seriousness I'll hopefully (assuming the car is back on the road) be bringing 3 nippers along. Still not sure whether they'll prefer to wander about and look at the cars or play with other kids.

But all due respect for offering!

You can leave the missus with me if you want to.
how old are the kids? i used to be a beaver and cub scout leader(in training) so i have the ability to keep most kids occupied for hours!

i love drawing cartoon characters so i can get older kids into that, it's real easy.

Not sure who I'll be dragging along. Will most likely be :

3. Amy, 8yrs
4. Toby, 4yrs
5. Ethan, 11months

The bigger two love cars, BMW's especially, but I'm sure there'll only be so much wandering around and stood chatting they'll put up with. And they do love drawing and colouring

:D

In the process of getting some ear plugs or spare ear defenders so i can take the kids to watch the jet car,...........

Nicky has some now but last year we just put our hands over her ears and she was fine at her hearing check in November.
She was 16 months last santa pod.
