Two Doting Dads with Matty J & Ash

The boys have brought back "The Oracle", Gen Muir, for some advice before school goes back and how to avoid those post school meltdowns.
Lola is starting big school and Marlie and Oscar are both moving up a year - a big transition for our little ones.
Gen teaches the boys how to get the kids (mentally) school ready as well as how to prep them for any problems that may arise... and it could all come down to a lunchbox.
Matt opens up about his biggest fears for the girls at school, while Ash is surprised to find his past school fears bubbling to the surface while discussing Oscars'.
Once again Gen has loads of take home advice plus a great, new card game to play with the kids (and the boys) that'll get them giving you more than one word answers after school.
This is one episode that you'll want to share with your fellow parents.

Aw, remember when Poppy was just a twinkle in Dad's eye?
When Matt announced he was going on I'm A Celeb and the both tried to eat a century egg?
When Ash went to a school parent pizza night.. or was it a something more sinister?
