Same beginning, one line, many different stories. Seventeen UK parent bloggers took the challenge to ‘tell the story’ their way. This is our gift to the children around the world: beautiful stories with illustrations from our own kids, making it a perfect bedtime storybook.
By creating this book called ‘Once upon a time’ we are fundraising for Save the Children. The profit of all book sales will be donated to the charity.
Thank you to all parent bloggers who took part in this story book for their time, creativity and empathy! Together we made it happen!
Now it’s onto you! We are raising money for those kids, born with the challenge to survive. Let’s help them write a better story of their life, one that will make them smile!
Besides, the book is funny and colourfil, making it the perfect Christmas gift for a child. You can view and purchase the book HERE.
‘Save the Children works in more than 120 countries. We save children’s lives. We fight for their rights. We help them fulfil their potential.’

Light, comfortable and manoeuvrable pushchair. This is what I’ve been looking for lately! So when we received the Graco Symbio – Moon to review, it just hit the spot.
My daughter was very excited, too – she couldn’t wait for me to open the box. Very big box, so I was a bit sceptical at first. But when we assembled it, it looked very nice and compact.
The first thing to notice was the elegant trendy design! In stylish grey and nice forms, this pushchair is a real beauty! Then we discovered another plus: the reversible handle! There is also 3-seat position but what I like most is the 5 point harness as safety is a priority for me when choosing pushchair.
We thought we would immediately give it a try. I was very nice surprised that it was so easy to push (using Silvercross in the past, the difference is huge)! Graco Symbio is easy-peasy to push and navigate with one hand only, so when it’s raining I can easily hold my umbrella with the other hand – phew, one “rainy-day issue” sorted!
But thanks God not all days in London are rainy, so when the weather was nice last month, we spent the Saturday out in the park and at some point my daughter felt asleep. Previously I was feeling guilty looking at her trying to find a comfortable position to sleep. This time was different though – she was feeling so comfortable that she slept for a couple of hours (so I got to see my friend over a cuppa and sweet talks).
Despite the fact that my shopping at Waitrose is still a mission as the basket could have been larger to store some of my shopping while rushing after the kid, overall I am very pleased with Graco Symbio! I would definitely recommend it as a nice and comfortable option for city ride and if your little one still enjoys the outside naps in the buggy.
