Wendover-on-Sea - The Dandy Kid

Last week The Dandy Kid  (a children's boutique) put on a great day for families called Wendover on Sea. It's the summer holidays so I'm always up for different things I can do with the kids. There was Punch and Judy, face painting, sandpits, bouncy castles, lots of cake, and so much more.

Here's my photos from the lovely time we spent there:




My daughter was rather enthralled by this little lady sat next to her on the bouncy castle. 


The lovely owners of The Dandy Kid and their gorgeous girls.




This lady in the striped top is known as the knitting midwife - she had the kids mesmerised with her finger knitting and knitted loom band making skills. 



 Of course I couldn't go all that way and not take a little peek at the boutique itself on the upper level of a converted barn. As you can see the shop is full to brim of quirky, individual finds making it a real struggle to come away empty handed. 




And I was absolutely delighted to come home with a hand knitted neon necklace made by the fair hands of the knitting midwife (of course), that my kids have tried very hard to swipe. Sorry girls no chance, this one is mine! 


So if you ever find yourself near this pretty little market town called Wendover in Buckinghamshire - make sure you visit the Barn Courtyard where you'll find The Dandy Kid and a few other treasures close by such as a fantastic little art gallery and an abundantly stocked antiques store among others. 

And if you don't happen to be close by any time soon, fear not you can check out their fantastic range of children's clothing, accessories and homewares online

  1. Looks and sounds like you all had a great day out! Always good to find things to do with the kids, I'm currently trying to fill our days before the Lili starts school in a few weeks.
