Belmont Farm
Monday 8th November 2010
Over the weekend we took Luna to Belmont Farms in NW7 (Mill Hill). It was really lovely! We are members of the London Zoo so she’s used to seeing the exotic animals but the farm was a totally different experience! The children are able to feed the animals and hold some of the smaller ones. Luna got to hold a gorgeous bunny and this photo captures her happiness/excitement! It was so sweet. If you’re in London, it’s totally worth checking out. Have a look at the Belmont Farms website.

Lunalu Recommendation

Tokyo Baby Cafe is simply amazing ! Lunalu loves it!
The design for a ‘parent and child cafe’ on Tokyo’s Omotesando, for parents to enjoy being out with small children without worry about those around them. The cafe is fully stocked with picture books and toys, and includes a playroom, private rooms and separate spaces for nursing and changing diapers. Wide aisles make it easy to move around with a stroller, and light switches and door handles are placed high up to keep children from using them. The cafe is designed to be enjoyed by two very different sizes of users, ‘parents’ and ‘small children’, so the interior plays on this difference in scale. They also see the world through different eyes. Take a table: adults live their lives aware of tabletops, and the things placed on top of them.But children see the table’s underside. A table’s legs can look like pillars, and the reverse of the tabletop is like a roof. The cafe’s ‘absolutely huge’ and ‘absolutely tiny’ furnishings take advantage of these two perspectives, the adult’s and the child’s. A nursing sofa becomes a playroom when blown up on a massive scale, and a diaper changing table when shrunk to minuscule proportions. Big windows pair with small ones, and big lightbulbs with small ones. The floorboards vary in size, and the undersides of tables, where parents eyes don’t reach, hide pictures of parent and baby animals. In fact, ‘parents and children’ can be found all around the cafe, ready for their parent and child visitors.

This summer in Madrid (Spain) your family could taste over 250 varieties of ice-creams made with the most exquisite raw materials and 100% natural at Bajo Cero. Mojito flavour for you and mandarin sorbet for your children. Sounds great!!!

Last week-end Little Lunalu discovered the Chelsea Farmers Market and the Market Place Restaurant. It’s a perfect place to have a drink or eat something with friends after an afternoon shopping on Kings Road, Chelsea, London.
