Whether your married or in a relationship or not, the times when your on your own with kids can be tricky. Planning ahead is a great way to make the most of it and I agree planning one major activity for the day too!

I struggled enough with one! We're about to have another baby but Evie's at school now so I don't think it'll be noticeable that I have two until the school holidays. I'll definitely be using some of these tips when the holidays are upon us though.
