Fannie Bay Super Pizza is an amazing kid friendly restaurant. As a Mum to four young kids I know taking kids out to dine at a restaurant can be challenging and tricky most of the time. Will the kids like the food, will the kids be too noisy or messy, will it be too busy, is the place family friendly? What do they have to keep my kids entertained or will I have to put an Ipad or my phone in front of them to keep them busy. Fannie Bay Super pizza ticks all the boxes for a family friendly restaurant and it is fast becoming a favourite place for my family to go to.

Darwin get ready! Territory Day 2018 is about to go off with a bang! Territory Day is celebrated every year on the 1st of July.

This significant event in our history will be celebrated across the Territory. Darwin Family Life has rounded up some of the fantastic free events for you to go to with your family this Territory Day 2018 and where you can see some awesome fireworks!
When Mother’s Day rolls around again and the advertisements start up on TV, I always wonder, why do they think all mothers are aged in their sixties and love Michael Buble’ and purple fluffy slippers?
Not that I’m knocking either of those things, I’m sure there are mums out there who would totally love that gift, but a Mother’s Day gift guide for mums needs to be a little bit broader and more exclusive of the different kinds of mums there are.
The Easter long weekend is fast approaching and starting this Friday! Easter egg hunts and activities are happening all around town! Good Friday is on March 30th to Easter Monday April 2nd.

We also have found some great free printables for you to keep the kids busy!
I first met Christene from Party Supplies Direct a few days after we launched our Darwin Family Life website which was in late August 2017. We connected straight away as passionate and driven women in business. This week on the blog we asked her a few questions about her and Party Supplies Direct which she launched in 2017. Party Supplies Direct is your one stop party shop for all your special event needs. From balloons, loot bag goodies, napkins, thank you tags and so much more you must check out their website! Plus they are happy to order in any special requests you may have.
