This week, a strong wind keeps everyone pinned down at the Club. Unable to make it to the bakery, Queenie opts for serving imaginary pastries before hitting upon the idea to use what few ingredients are in the kitchen. Surely even Queenie can’t bake using an old packet of dried spaghetti and a can of what could be sweetcorn? While Queenie bakes, Little Dazzy Donuts announces the winning poetry and art from the recent Pets competition to celebrate 25 winners living in 10 different...

This week, Queenie and Chicken are spring cleaning in the Club, which means emptying all of the drawers and cupboards. To their surprise, at the back of a cupboard, they find a dusty set of keys. I wonder what they open? If it’s not the Club or the garden shed, what could it be? Along the way, Little Dazzy Donuts keeps everyone entertained with three poems read by this week's poets: Elena, Kuhu and Madeline. We love hearing from you!  To send your poems and drawings into the Club, just check...

This week, Chicken is under the sink trying to figure out why the water isn't running. While she does that, Queenie is busy passing her tools and looking through the boxes they found in the cupboard.

This week, Queenie , Chicken, and Hedgehog return from an early morning hike with many more questions than they have answers.

Along the way, Little Dazzy Donuts keeps everyone entertained with three poems read by this week's poets: Disha, Grace, and Mia.  We love hearing from you!  Our...

This week, Queenie and Chicken are preparing to cheer Postie Dale as he races past the Club in a 70-mile cycle race.

We love hearing from you!  Our current...

This week, Queenie and Chicken are tackling a 978 piece jigsaw puzzle while they wait for the rain to stop and wonder whether Hedgehog accidentally walked off with the missing 22 pieces. However, with every piece being a shade of yellow, they are yet to find two that fit together.  Perhaps they will have better luck with all of the board games in the cupboard. Along the way, Little Dazzy Donuts keeps everyone entertained with four poems read by this week's poets: Aditeya, Cassidy, Genesis,...

This week, Queenie, Chicken and Hedgehog are back from their trip to Europe, and Queenie is keen to recreate the yummy stroopwafels that they enjoyed eating in the Netherlands. However, with very few items in the fridge, it could be tough to make something as yummy as a stroopwafel. Let's see how close she gets! Along the way, Little Dazzy Donuts keeps everyone entertained with four poems read by this week's poets: Eniola, Evelyn, Oshin, and Selena. We love hearing from you!  Our current...

This week, Queenie, Chicken, Hedgehog, and Shasta are planning their summer trip with the help of a map, some pins, and red wool.
