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!
I’m always amazed about how much more intricate kids toys are now than when I was small, but when the new Go Jetters Head Quarters arrived I suddenly was a bit envious of the lucky people who get to think up toys, design them and then play around with them to make sure everything works… Read More
Athena is now fully potty trained, and has had very few accidents since she’s been using the loo but we are about to go on a road trip for a week, and will be exploring various parts of the country before we head up to the Lake District, where we have some long walks planned… Read More
You know when you’ve spent the whole weekend away camping, and you have a couple of loads of washing to do, a car to unpack and a house to tidy and you really need to not have two small people under your feel whilst you do so? Normally I would have them attached to me,… Read More
Arlo has a new set of wheels; he’s been test driving the brand new SmarTrike 5-in-1 infinity trike. Designed to take a child from 10 months to 3 years and through a variety of stages: Stage 1: Sleep mode – the seat reclines back for comfy naps and has a high back so plenty of… Read More
The latest addition to our household is a Code-a-Pillar from Fisher Price. He’s a cute little guy who does exactly what he’s told so he can stay, he’s very obedient! He’s a new toy that is designed to help kids get a head start on learning about coding. I must admit I thought this was a bit… Read More
Last Saturday we spent a lovely morning at the Brighton Open Air Theatre (or BOAT) watching Pitschi which was one of the performances happening throughout the fortnight long Starboard Festival. It was such a great opportunity for the children to experience live theatre in a non stuffy environment, where they weren’t restricted to sitting in… Read More
In my mind there is nothing more quintessentially ‘childhood toy’ than dolls house. I’ve always dreamt of getting Athena and Arlo a huge mansion with several storeys and rooms full of miniature furniture, carefully wallpapered interiors and tiny little lights and curtains at the windows. Who am I kidding, it would be for my benefit… Read More
I am a bad nursery mum, I think the only thing Athena has with her name on is her backpack, and that’s because it was embroidered on especially! Nothing I send her to nursery in has her name in but it really should, including shoes! Nameit Labels sent us a pack of ‘Back to School’… Read More
I’m grateful that I don’t seem to have anyone in my life who thinks it is strange for little boys to play with dolls, or kitchens, or to dress up as whatever they want. I am so thankful for this as I see people saying on-line in parenting groups or social media that their fathers… Read More
Whenever people ask me what’s on my essential baby buys list I always mention our ‘snot sucker’ or nasal aspirator if you want to use the correct term. They’re love hate amongst parents but I think they’re really helpful and we had two manual ones already (the bulb type) that I thought worked quite well.… Read More
