Family of 3 (The Three of Us) - Handmade Pebble Art Picture - White Frame

Product Information

First smile, first laugh, first eight-hour sleep (hopefully) – there are many incredible moments in the first six months. Please note that these figures reflect average amounts actually spent according to an ONS survey, adjusted up for inflation by us—they are not recommendations about how much you should spend. You can ask hotels for an extra bed (often known as a fold up or roll away bed) but they may not agree. Otherwise, avoid public holiday weekends, and everything is more expensive the closer you get to London. I wish we’d stuck more to this routine as we found that we were stuck next to a sleeping baby most of the day and trying to soothe him into the late evening meaning we didn’t get much of a holiday ourselves.

The data here are estimates as to food spending; please use these figures for informational purposes only. If your youngest child is still a baby then you may prefer our “Lovely Family 3 children (Baby)” posters. Join us as we explore days out in the UK, weekend trips away and holidays further afield in Europe and beyond.

Some of the technologies we use are necessary for critical functions like security and site integrity, account authentication, security and privacy preferences, internal site usage and maintenance data, and to make the site work correctly for browsing and transactions. You definitely don't want a cot and I've never understood the sharing bedrooms with grown up children thing! Along the way, there will be many different random events to respond to, all of them adding surprise to this simulation game and unexpected elements to routine, daily virtual life.

While food is clearly a large budget item, there are a few categories that take an even larger bite of the average annual household budget. The UK is an expensive place, the cost of everything has gone up considerably in the last couple of years.In terms of actual spending, you can see how weekly food and drink budgets increase as disposable incomes rise. However, in light of the fact that the latest ONS report is for the period April 2021 through March 2022 (ending over a year ago) and the current high food inflation in the UK, we've adjusted the figures in this article for inflation from the time period of the ONS Family Spending report until April 2023. If your new baby brings your family to three children, then display your expanding family unit with pride thanks to our “Lovely Family 3 children (Baby)” posters.
