Raring2go! Raring2go! 2 raring2go.co.uk 3 Welcome to the first edition of the Raring2go! Portsmouth, Fareham and Surrounds magazine. Becoming a parent is a joyous occasion, but also opens a world of constant change and unknowns. Just when you get to grips with the baby phase, it’s toddlerhood and all the phases that come thereafter. Raring2go! is geared towards the early developmental years of children which is 0 to 11 years old. We want to share with you all the local ‘what’s on’, places to visit, clubs and classes and some useful parenting information to help inspire you and your child to try something new and visit somewhere extraordinary. Parenthood can feel overwhelming and lonely, and we want to provide you with information that is easy to access and help you make the best choices for your family. Sometimes the best way to beat anxiety is to go outside and explore. We have chosen a few wonderful local places to visit, which are well worth the day out and will give you and your kids terrific memories and a Spring in your step! It is also Earth Day in April, the perfect time to start new eco-friendly habits and get the kids planning their hedgehog feeding stations and how to start growing your own food. We hope you enjoy this Spring edition and we would love to hear from you! Have a great Spring! Shireen ABOUT RARING2GO!
