Kids and their 5-a-Day
Getting your children to eat their 5-a-day can be tricky so here a few free tips. Don’t forget that frozen, fresh, canned, juiced and dried all count and that one portion is roughly a handful. +
Exercise and Kids
I’d like to get the ball rolling on a subject that’s now very important to me, exercise and children. I’ve just become a Daddy for the second time and I’m very focused on making sure that both Adam and Emma grow up to be healthy and happy.
