Finding different ways of keeping your bundles of joy entertained at any time can be a challenging concept but having to adapt to a new way of life during these unprecedented times can seem a little daunting, especially when your options are very limited!
The new “every day living” is very different to what we are used to, home schooling and working from home is now the new “norm” and something which we had to adapt to very quickly.
No one knows how long we will be in this situation for or when normal life will resume but until then let’s take this time to spend precious time with our family and do things together which you wouldn’t normally find time to do in your busy everyday lives.

On a separate note we are still scheduling mermaid swimming sessions via www.mermaidwave.com for this summer and we recommend keeping spirits high in such strange times by letting our children continue to believe in the magic of hope and prosperity. Please use the #mermaidlockdown to show the world that the UK will continue to be hopeful and positive in a time where our generation can use technology to unite spirit and mind.
Planet Mermaid will continue posting parcels whilst our UK/International Couriers continue to knock on our door in Bedford to collect. Please look out for any vulnerable neighbours and extend the hand of grace and kindness to all postal staff, NHS staff and shopkeepers, small businesses who continue to provide a service.
At this time we would like to say the biggest mermaid thank you to you all for your continued support.
