What's Happened? What's Happening? 22/10/2015

Welcome back to the latest #WHWH linky, we are deep into October and if you're anything like us, the heating is on and the winter coats are out! We've been enjoying reading about outdoor adventures this week and getting excited about our plans for the upcoming half term, as well as Halloween and bonfire night.

 We really appreciate you joining in and sharing your posts with us and it would make us both very happy to see you include our #WHWH badge in your post or on your site. The more people that join in with our lovely community the more exciting places we get to discover and fabulous events we get to read about. We can't wait to get busy pinning, sharing and commenting on all of your posts this week!

 'What's Happened?' this week took us to the movies, to a music festival and even to Disney World Florida, but the post that stood out to us the most was a fun yet educational day at Warwick Castle from In The Playroom and her family.  From the chance to try archery, see a working trebauchet and learn about medieval times which also having lots of fun in the fresh air, it sounds like the perfect Autumn day out!

'What's Happening?' saw some great posts linked up, full of ideas for fast approaching school holidays. If you are looking for family fun in the Greater Manchester area then don't miss these posts on half term happenings from Red Rose Mummy and The Brick Castle.

The one post that had us both planning trips to West Yorkshire for some spooky Halloween fun was from Yorkshire Tots.  They have something for every family from spooky interactive films to Pumpkin Festivals and even Freaks in the Forest...

What's Happened? What's Happening? #WHWH 16/07/2015

Welcome to What's Happened? What's Happening? It's the first week of the new linky all about days out and events, hosted by myself and Pippa from Red Rose Mummy! It's ideal timing as the children are about to break up for the summer holidays and there are lots of fun events and activities going on!

Each time we'll be featuring posts from the previous link ups, sometimes with a theme, sometimes simply because we wish we'd been there! We'll also be highlighting the best of what's happening so you don't miss out on any must see events! As this is the first week we've had a look around our favourite blogs and found some great posts to share with a summer holidays theme, there are some fantastic ideas around for things to do over the school holidays.



We love exploring the outdoors, so I was excited to read what Mary from Over 40 and a Mum to one and her son thought of Conkers, the outdoor adventure cente, it looks like the ideal summer holiday day out!

Pippa and I both live in the North-West and love to get hands on with nature so Karen from That Lancashire Lass' post showcasing the best of wildlife in Lancashire really appeals to both of us. I think we'll both be adding these to our 'to visit' lists.

Do you love the LEGO Movie? If so be sure to check out the special movie weekends at LEGOLAND Discovery Centre in Manchester. You can meet Emmett and Wildstyle and they will be screening the movie from 10am each day. If you have a Minions fan then they may be excited to see the new movie out in the cinema this summer, you can read In The Playroom's review of it here.

Last week my daughter and I visited the Imperial War Museum North to experience their newest exhibition, Horrible Histories: Blitzed Brits, we really enjoyed and will be returning with my son during the school holidays, a great free day out. Another local museum that is worth a visit this summer is the Museum of Science and Industry who are hosting Play It! where you can get to grips with the best video games from the last 30 years from ping pong to Pac Man.

We're hoping you all have posts ready to link up, whether you've been away recently, or out for the day, perhaps you've been to a fantastic blog event? We would love to see what you have been up to. If you haven't got a recent post, why not share your favourite ever blog event, or a day out that you loved and wrote up a while ago? Link up these posts to What's Happened? We'd love to see a bumper linkup this week to welcome the linky back with a bang.

If you know of some great events happening soon, then come and shout about them at our What's Happening? Link up.

We'd love you to add our badge to your post to spread the #WHWH word...
