Here are the reviews we’ve done. I’m always honest with what we thought about the products or experiences and am always happy to answer questions too, feel free to give me a shout on social media!
In a bid to reduce waste and give useful gifts this year will be the second year we’ve used a ‘fill your own’ advent calendar. Last year the kids shared one (though they got a surprise each) but this year they will have their own as we have been sent a wooden light up calendar… Read More
Some inspiration for (mostly) educational kids gifts, like puzzles, games and crafty things.
[Gifted items. Words and images my own] If you’re anything like me then you will snap photos on your phone or maybe even a digital camera and then rarely do anything else with them. They’ll sit gathering dust in the virtual basement of your hard drive, or maybe in the cloud if you’re really organised.… Read More
Arlo loves trucks, diggers and tractors as do so many little kids. It doesn’t seem that long ago that we used to have to stop and watch every digger or dumper truck we saw when we were out and about, no matter if it was raining or super cold! This week, to coincide with some… Read More

But with each bottle bought it means another bottle to be recycled . An alternative option is for him to carbonate his own drinks with a Soda Stream! … Read More
Sam and the kids went to the theatre this weekend to see The Pirate Cruncher at The Connaught in Worthing. It’s a ‘rollicking adventure told through thrilling action, daft nonsense, stirring shanties, and the weirdest of mechanical contraptions’. Adapted from the best-selling picture book by Jonny Duddle and scored by multi award winning… Read More
