Whether you fancy taking advantage of the nice (?) weather, or hiding indoors from it, here are our top five activities to keep the kids entertained this summer.

Today is our little Frieda’s favourite day of the year… it’s Cow Appreciation Day! For anyone who’s wondering, it’s an annual national day where the world takes a moment to appreciate the awesomeness of cows. ;-) To celebrate, we're offering a special 25% discount on all Frieda Trunki cases using the code: COWDAY, (it’s for one-day only folks, so be quick!) Frieda was one of the first additions to the Trunki animal family back in 2008, so we’ve had a lot of fun with her over the years and we thought that today was a perfect excuse for us to go through the...

We'd like to say a massive thank you to everyone who sponsored our ladies and also say congratulations to the lucky winner of our charity raffle, Alex Collingwood, who won the Trunki...

To celebrate the fact that summer is FINALLY here, we’ve teamed up with the good folk at Little Bird to give you a chance to win a Sea Side Adventure kit for your family.
