Walden Weekly

Local guide to baby & toddler groups around Saffron Walden.

☀️ Week one of the summer holidays… done! (Only five to go… 😅)

To make those inevitable “What shall we do today?” moments a little easier, I’ve been building a brand new Summer Around Walden section on Walden Weekly.

You’ll find ideas for hot days, rainy days, free activities, cafés, parks, splash pads, farms and plenty more, with a few favourites a little further afield too.

It’s still a work in progress (most of it is built during nap times and late evenings!), so I’d really love your help.

💜 Have I missed somewhere?
💜 Know a hidden gem?
💜 Got an idea that would make the website easier to use?

Drop me a message or leave a comment. Every recommendation helps make Walden Weekly a little more useful for local families.

Good luck to all the parents and carers tackling the next five weeks—you’ve got this! ☀️💜

After a disrupted night with the little one and running on far too little coffee, this notification popping up on my watch completely made my day. ☕💜

Thank you to our very first Buy Me a Coffee supporter. Your kindness genuinely means so much and helps keep Walden Weekly running. More summer content is coming soon! ☀️

And while I’ve got you… if you know of any great family-friendly summer activities, or your playgroup is running over the summer holidays, I’d love to hear from you so I can add them to the website and help even more local families. 💜

Still looking for Easter plans?

I’ve pulled together a date ordered roundup of local Easter egg hunts, trails, crafts, play sessions and family bits I’ve spotted across Saffron Walden and nearby villages.

Perfect if you want to quickly see what’s on without having to dig through loads of Facebook posts and flyers.

I’ll keep adding to it if I spot more, so do send any gems my way 💜

The Easter page is finally live 🐣

After a lot of rummaging around Facebook posters, event pages and bits of local info, I think I’ve pulled together a pretty handy list of Easter things going on in and around Saffron Walden.

If you’ve been wondering what’s actually on, hopefully this saves you some scrolling.

You’ll find egg hunts, crafts, trails and family bits all in one place and in date order to make life a little easier.

As always, do check the event organisers directly for final details, but I hope this gives you a really helpful head start.

Have a browse here and send it to another mum or dad who’s trying to work out Easter plans too.

Another chilled out Tuesday at Just Play’s Tiny Tots ☕🧦💜

A cappuccino for me, grippy socks on, and plenty of energy burned off for the little one. Honestly such an easy win when you need to get out of the house and let them properly run around.

Also just a little heads up that Tiny Tots is still on over the next two weeks, even though it’s half term, which is very handy if you’re looking for something to do.

So lovely to see SWTFC Baby & Toddler Group open its doors for the first time today 💜
We popped along this morning and it was such a lovely one. There were tiny babies right through to 4 year olds, and everyone seemed to be having a great time.

The mums got coffees and biscuits, the little ones got snacks and stories, and it was just such a warm, friendly morning. So nice to have something else to do on a Monday too.

Also a little parking tip from me, who paid like an idiot 🥲 …if you keep driving right to the end of the road there’s free parking there, so no need to pay and display.

We’ll definitely be going back next week.

Why I made Walden Weekly 💜
It feels fitting to share this on Mother’s Day, because becoming a mum is a big part of why I made it.

I kept thinking the same thing and hearing the same question from other local parents too — what’s on for babies and toddlers around Saffron Walden?

So I wanted to create one easy place to look for groups, activities, classes, soft play, and useful local bits for little ones.

Thank you so much to everyone who’s visited, shared it, and sent recommendations already. It really does mean a lot.
