Having three little boys, cars and diggers are a huge part of our lives. One of the first toys Harrison ever played with was a car, pushing it up and down the carpet. We now have a huge toybox full of ‘big cars’ and a storage box full of smaller ‘matchbox’ style cars.

Everywhere you look in our house, you can probably find a car. Every surface is a road.

Last week, when Harrison was at school, Alex and Benjamin brought the box of cars and diggers into the living room and spent a happy hour sitting next to each other playing.

There was lots of ‘brumming’ and ‘beeping’, and certainly lots of smashing, but it was lovely to sit there and watch them just playing with and alongside one another.
