Want to make Christmas magical for the kids… but you’re already exhausted? 🎄🫠

You don’t need another elaborate Christmas craft to organise. Or another reason to feel you’re not doing enough.

Meet the Calm Christmas Countdown—a screen-free advent calendar activity book that makes space for creativity and a little time together in the Christmas chaos. ❤️

For those “how many sleeps?” moments.
For a break from the screens.
For sitting down together when everyone needs a quieter moment.

Whether you’re a parent trying to get through December, a granny looking for something to enjoy with the grandchildren, or a childminder planning Christmas activities—have a look inside. 👀

Looking for Christmas countdown ideas for your nursery or early-years classroom? It could be part of your quieter activity time, too.

✨ An alternative to a chocolate advent calendar
🎨 Christmas colouring and creative activities
📖 A children’s Christmas activity book to enjoy together
📱 Screen-free time during a very busy season

A little less pressure. A little more connection.

Available now from my website and local stockists.

🎄 Nurseries, schools and childminders: message me about ordering copies for your setting.

🎄 CAN WE ASK EVERYONE FOR A WEE FAVOUR?

Buckie Christmas Kracker is getting closer, and we’d love your help spreading the word!

We’re incredibly proud of what our small team of volunteers has managed to build over the years.

What started as a much smaller event has grown into the North of Scotland’s largest free Christmas event, with thousands of people now coming along to Buckie each November.

And we want this year’s event to be even better!

If you’re looking forward to the Kracker, we’d really appreciate it if you could give this post a share and help us reach a few more people.

You never know, someone might discover the Kracker for the first time!

📅 Saturday 21st November
📍 Buckie Town Centre

FREE ENTRY – EVERYONE WELCOME! 🎅

Life has been more hectic than usual here, & I’m just coming up for air.

Today was time for a little de-stress of my own! 🥾🌿

David and I headed up Bennachie, with my Aberdeen & Shire Passport in hand for directions. Lovely to get outside and spend some time together.

If you’re looking for inspiration for the tattie holidays, the books are available to buy 📖 I’ll be dropping copies off at the Bennachie Centre and places in Aberdeen on Saturday.

They are still on the website for sale.

I can get postage done quickly for the holidays ❤️

If you’re already wondering how on earth you’re going to keep the kids entertained over the summer holidays… 😂

I still have some of my Aberdeen & Aberdeenshire Passport books left and they’re now reduced on my website.

There are 25 places to visit around Aberdeen & Aberdeenshire, so plenty of ideas for days out over the holidays, plus 25 pictures for the kids to colour in too 🖍️

There are no deals or discounts attached to this one — it’s simply a book to give you ideas of places to go, things to see and hopefully keep the kids entertained for a wee while!

They’re reduced now on my website while I still have some left ☀️

And with six weeks of summer holidays to fill… every idea helps 😂

✨ HELP ME SHAPE THE NEXT MORAY PASSPORT ✨

I’ve loved seeing so many families out exploring with their My Moray Passport this year 🩵
From castles and beaches to ice cream stops and adventure days — seeing your photos and tags has honestly been the best part.

As I start planning the next edition, I’d love your feedback 👇

📍 Which places did your kids love most?
📍 Where should be added next time?
📍 Did you enjoy the deals, size, layout and activities?
📍 What would make it even better for 2026?

I’ve made a quick Google Form (it only takes 2 minutes!) and I’d be so grateful if you could fill it in.
