Guinness Book of World Recodrs, Here we come!

The Jetsetting Babies will be joining hundreds maybe even thousand of others this year and getting a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records to support the charity Africa Aware. We will all dress as Wally's and a very high crane will take an very high resolution photo to create the first ever Where's Wally live photo to be taken. All the proceeds raised from the sale of Wally costumes will go to keeping the Street Performers World Championships here in Dublin and to the worthy charity Africa Aware. Africa Aware brings much needed assistance to orphans whose parents have died of AIDS and to abandon children all over Africa.


The Street Performers World Championship will be held in Merrion Square in Dublin between the 16th &19th of June. There are also events to be held in Cork &Port Laoise. There will be fun for the whole family from 12 - 7:30pm daily. For parents I recommend avoiding the massive weekends crowds and getting in on the Thursday or Friday. The line up for the event along with timetables and information on the world record attempt can be viewed at http://www.spwc.ie/.


I am most looking forward to seeing the Australian renowned street performer and Former World Record holder The Space Cowboy who makes me flinch so much it is amazing I even see his show. Also this year I am looking forward to seeing Lindsay Benner who's show promises to 'fashion a tale of love, longing and juggling from an excessively large and vivid mind' and is promised to be fun for the whole family, that what we love! From memory last year the food stands sold some really good organic burgers and tasty treats that you would happily share with your little ones but it is best if you pack a picnic and come prepared


Amelie at last years SPWC we took Amelie on the Thursday and while there were a few schools to contend with the crowds we small enough for us to soak up a bit of sun and really enjoy the day, a highlight for us was seeing a quick change act, it was brilliant. 

Hope that you all pop in to Merrion Square and enjoy this amazing family event.

Love the Yummy Mummies and The Jetsetting Babies
