Children’s dreams are powerful and inspiring. They don’t have the restrictions adults inflict on themselves, meaning their hopes and dreams can be huge. Anything they can imagine. Just like being the best ninja in the world or a flying bat pirate.
Whilst to parents, family and friends these might seem unrealistic or extraordinary, to children these are how they see their futures. Parents have a more important role to play than you might think. We’re not talking teaching little ones how to fly, build cat cars, or slay dragons, although if you have the skills we’re sure they’d love you to! Parents are the ones to provide motivation, leadership and inspiration, nurturing these dreams, and helping little ones to grow.
To explore this, we spoke to seven family bloggers and got them to ask their children what their futures would look like, so we could bring them to life, however magical or wonderful they might be.

At Post Office, we believe these hopes and dreams are worth protecting. While we know you’d rather not think about a time when you’re no longer around, it’s really important to protect the things that really matter and top of that list is protecting your family
