Prescription Swimming Goggles – So Worth It.

Another  item that found its way into the bags when LittleStuff went to France were these prescription swimming goggles. No.1 son wears glasses you see, and has always been slightly more cautious in the water than his swimming ability would dictate. Being similarly optically-challenged I do understand – it can be very intimidating, particularly in [...]



The Larmer Tree Festival Review – what we really thought

When Laura asked on Wednesday if I wanted to take her place at the Larmer Tree Festival for five days she didn’t have to ask twice. I imagine she chose me because I had easy access to four enthusiastic children. What she might not have considered was my previous experience working at numerous festivals in [...]



Keycamp – what did we really think?

As we had such a mixed experience of Keycamp, I’ve decided the best thing is to break the review into parts – one for each site, and one for the company itself. So I’ll start at the very beginning (a very good place to start…. and I’ll continue now you all have Julie Andrews in [...]



Plum Baby Food – Plum Lovely!

We gave the tough job of reviewing the box of Plum Baby Food to Jake (he was assisted a little with the typing by Mummy Pol). Here’s what they thought: Jakes review – Did you get all that? Just in case – here it is again… That’s probably everything you need to know, but just [...]



Casha Poncho – just plain fabulous!

The gorgeously pregnant Alics has been reviewing the Casha Poncho for us – it’s not actually maternity wear, but is so perfect for a quick cover up with or without a bump. In the Casha Cashemere Poncho, Alice says “Hark!  What’s this?  Why, it’s something that fits over my enormous bump! Quality-wise it is lovely, [...]



Gardening with a 3 year old – no, really.

It all sounds lovely doesn’t it? Popping out in the sunshine for an afternoon of pottering in the garden with the toddler, Getting Things Done. But the trouble is, they’re a bit over-keen when they do help; and frankly are a pain when they inevitably get bored and wander off mid-job. So when I saw [...]



Puppies and Soldiers in the garden…

… and an attractive Death Stalker (apparently) too. The puppy, of course The Soldier – hat and jacket models own. Sigh. The Death Stalker. Lovely. We’ve been sent a pack of face paints by the fab people at Snazaroo, so with a holiday afternoon meandering past and no one having any better suggestions I offered [...]



Stripy Blankets!

The review for these oh-so-very delicious blankets from The Stripy Company is coming just as soon as Katy manages to stick her head above the School Holiday waters and gain five minutes work time. But in the meantime, I thought you might appreciate a few pics of just how delicious these blankets really are… (you’ll [...]



Pictures by Pink…

We’ve had the Fisher Price Kids Tough Digital Camera on review – ostensibly for Jolly, who at 6/7 is just too young (and ham-fisted) to trust with a proper camera. But as much as he loves it, as soons as he puts it down it is picked up by Pink. Well, it’s supposed to be [...]



Look! Raggy Tag pics from @jumblyMummy!

Emma from the Mellow Mummy blog has been reviewing the raggy tag blankets for us – the full review is to come soon over on LittleStuff, but Emma sent us these, and we simply couldn’t resist sharing!
