Edinburgh for Under Fives: The Dean Gallery
For christmas I received a book voucher from my brother. I bought two books, one of which was Edinburgh for Under Fives.
This book is Fab (with a capital F!!). It’s basically a directory of Edinburgh written by parents for parents. It covers everything a mum (or dad) living in Edinburgh requires, from local attractions to eateries suitable for the littl’uns, nurseries and healthcare info. Jam-packed. We couldn’t wait to get started on the crux of the book, which is the attractions or ‘places to go’ part.
We set off for The Dean Gallery via sainsburys at blackhall for a sausage buttie and a coffee 
(very nice, and reasonably priced too!).
We enjoyed the Dean Gallery a lot, it was Erin’s first foray into the world of modern art and she seemed to enjoy it until the peace and tranquility sent her to sleep. Accurately noted by the book, the highlights were Paolozzi’s Vulcan and his restored studio. The gift shop was great, and the only disappointment was upstairs being closed as they were changing exhibitions. A great mini trip, that was absolutely free.
Ten out of ten for the book so far

I'm a 27 year old mum to 4 year old Erin. We live just outside Edinburgh in a small village. I've been blogging for four years and write about anything and everything that takes my fancy.

Oh you’ve made me ache to go there. I traveled through England and over to Brussels when I was 15/16 and haven’t been back. It’s one of those “things to do before I die” that Andrew and I go and travel throughout GB, Ireland, Wales and Scotland. There’s no place more romantic.
I’ve lived in England and Scotland. I was born and bred in Wales, and I have holidayed in Ireland. Scotland and specifically Edinburgh is my favourite, although, Ireland is pretty special too – if you go into the countryside.
