If you’re heading away this Bank Holiday weekend and dreading the thoughts of a long car journey then we’ve just the show for you this week! Founder of newly-launched travel resource, stickyfingerstravel.com, Tara Cosgrove recommends the Top Ten car games to keep back-seat passengers occupied and happy on the road this weekend.

The site which was launched in May of this year includes a wide range of information for parents keen to travel with children, including accommodation and packing tips, as well as the all important entertainment. The former solicitor and mum of two reveals how her passion for travel, and frustration at the lack of available information for families, led her to the path of online travel editor.

She also reveals that a whopping 81% of parents surveyed by her site this summer were worried about their children’s safety while on holidays, following the disappearance of Madeline McCann in the Algarve last year.

And we get her recommendations for keeping your children safe while relaxing on holiday.

Enjoy the show!

dummies_big.gifsue.jpgI know you must be all wondering what the large yellow ball hanging in the sky is this week, as much to our amazement the sun is shining down at long last! They say that sunshine fill us with optimism and positivity and that’s pretty much our theme this week as we chat with parenting coach and author Sue Atkins.

Her book ‘Raising Happy Children’ is the latest in the popular ‘For Dummies’ series to hit the shelves, and we hear from Sue why she thinks confidence is the key to successful parenting, and why she’s busy with parents from all walks of life who are struggling along the parenting path.

We also look at some of the quirkier gadgets hitting the news this week, as well as some babygros that aim to get your baby cleaning your kitchen floor! I kid you not.

Enjoy the show!

girl_soul.jpg logo_main-relax.jpg           If you like fairytales and happy endings then you’ll enjoy this week’s podcast as we catch up with entrepreneur Marneta Viegas from Relaxkids.com. With a Degree in Performing Art, Marneta was a professional children’s entertainer as well as children’s theatre director for 13 years. She came up with the idea for children’s mediations some years ago, and having spotted a gap in the market launched her relaxation classes, CDs and training programmes, which all have the one goal: of helping children to still their thoughts and relax. She also tells us how she found her Prince last year (by posting a ‘wanted’ ad!) and how her fairytale life is unfolding at her home at ‘Fairytale Cottage’.

And in keeping with the theme of helping kids to relax, we also catch up with Kirstie Affleck of Babyslingsandoutdoorthings.com, who tells us why babywearing and slings are becoming so popular with modern mums.

And we wish Darina bon voyage on her summer holidays!

Enjoy the show :)
