Hello and welcome to the Winter edition, After a fantastic summer it’s time to batten down the hatches and get cosy again. Of course we’re not bears so hibernating isn’t really an option (unfortunately!) so if you’re looking to get out and have fun this winter then make sure you have a look at our Christmas What’s On pages at the back of the magazine. We have more fabulous Christmas days out to be won at Bocketts Farm, and Winter Woodland at Alice Holt Forest. We also have family tickets to Hobbledown, The Sooty Show at G Live (a nice bit of nostalgia there for some parents I imagine!) and Usagi Yojimbo at the Southwark Playhouse. To enter these competitions please see pages 27 and 31. You can either visit our website - www.thefamilygrapevine.co.uk/guildfordhaslemere-farnham and look in the Competitions drop down menu or go straight to wwww.tinyurl.com/GHF-comp. Best of luck! Hopefully there won’t be a repeat of the terrible flooding we had this time last year and you will all stay safe and dry this year. Fingers and toes crossed ... Wishing you all a relaxing and joyful Christmas!

We cover the following towns and villages: Albury, Alfold, Ash, Ash Vale, Beacon Hill, Bramley, Brook, Burpham, Chiddingfold, Chilworth, Churt, Clandon, Cranleigh, Dunsfold, Elstead, Ewhurst, Farncombe, Farnham, Fernhurst, Frensham, Godalming, Gomshall, Grayshott, Grayswood, Guildford, Hambledon, Haslemere, Hindhead, Liphook, Merrow, Milford, Normandy, Puttenham, Seale, Shackleford, Shamley Green, Shere, Stoughton, Thursley, Tongham, Wonersh, Wood Street Village and Worplesdon.

Stresses and strains from traumas such as accidents or a difficult birth can accumulate, impairing its structure and resulting in discomfort or pain. Osteopaths are trained to evaluate the cause of a problem and use their highly developed sense of touch to release and restore the body to an improved state of health and wellbeing. • Aches and Pains • Stress and Tension • Newborn Babies and Children • Back and Neck Pain • Arthritic and Joint Pain

With 95% of all children now having access to the internet, how do we as parents ‘police’ their online time and what are the actual risks? As parents we need to take responsibility for protecting our children from danger but this can be difficult if we are not fully aware of the risks ourselves. Social Networking certainly has advantages but with it comes a host of problems such as posting hurtful comments, which could be perceived as bullying, or sharing personal details which could lead to unwanted contact. Most children can be impulsive and may not realise that they have posted something ‘inappropriate’ such as a photo or comment that is offensive or hurtful to others until it is too late. The term Cyberbullying is when someone uses the internet to deliberately hurt or harass someone. If your child is being persistently bullied online then it is important that you help them to report it. There are several risks with gaming and chat rooms such as being befriended by a stranger posing as a friend. Always let your children know that someone they don’t know in the real world is a stranger and might not be who they seem. Most devices now come with a ‘webcam’ incorporated, which can allow some children to be ‘coaxed’ into behaving inappropriately online, such as being asked to share a naked photo of themselves. Sexting is a term that is used now for ‘sharing’ photos in this way, but it is very important to keep children safe and discuss the risks of doing this or feeling pressurised. Sometimes children get re-directed to unhealthy networking sites or they may visit websites with inappropriate content such as adult sites. Always make sure that your home internet and any mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets/gaming devices etc have over 18 content blocked. If you are thinking of buying your child a smartphone then check with the provider that filtering is included. A good time to let your child have a mobile is when they are becoming more independent, such as visiting friends and attending clubs. One way that you can help your children is to regularly talk to them about their online world. Ask them questions about which games and applications they like and perhaps share with them how you use social media. If you are more of a technophobe, then ask your children to show you. Most children relish in the idea of being more knowledgeable than their parents! Set some basic Family Rules for being online. These could include the amount of time spent online and also how you would like them to speak to others. Keeping our kids safe online is the same as keeping them safe in the real world. The more you can talk to your children about what they are doing and keeping a dialogue running the better. If you have younger children then start this as soon as possible as it is very difficult to start putting this into practice when they are teenagers. Our top tip is to lay the foundations for discussion and safety now! •

CEOP is the Child Exploitation Online Protection Centre (www.ceop.police.uk) which aims to protect children from sexual exploitation and deals with hundreds of reports every year.

Thinkuknow is a website run by CEOP (www.thinkuknow.co.uk) which has a range of information for parents and children on how to keep safe. Sarah and Sheena of The Parent Project run a variety of fun and informative workshops for parents including one on Internet Safety. For more details please visit www.theparentproject.co.uk

In Aug�st, along with a friend and her children, my four year old son and I went along to watch this f�n-filled musical adaptation at Hatchlands Park, Clandon. 3

A ❤

It was a lovely war� summer’s evening and ever�one was sitting on the g�ass with their picnic blankets and delicious food and drinks all laid out in front of them.

The colourf�l characters from Lewis Car�oll’s ‘Alice’s Advent�res in Wonderland’, were t��ly larger than life and came around to have a sur�eal chat with all of the children before the show star�ed. Ty�ically some children were more comfor�able with this than others!

Once the show star�ed songs, dances and interactive f�n were presented by a ver� energetic and enthusiastic cast. The production was thoroughly enjoyed by ever�one present and was a fabulous way to enjoy the war� weather in the beautif�l and pict�resque National Tr�st sur�oundings.
