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 [...]



Spotted! LOOK at this boys suitcase!

Who could resist it? Not my small boys, that’s for sure – and not many others, I’m thinking. But just in case… there’s a DINOSAUR one too! Oh yes there is! Suitcases covered in vehicles or dinosaurs? Holiday Boy Heaven – even if it’s just going to stay with Granny for the weekend (and girls, [...]



Spotted! Pretty maternity wear (that’s not).

Okay, so this isn’t actually maternity wear… but these Kimonos from Caro London would be simply fabulous for drifting around the house on a summers afternoon, when you have that hot, twitchy pregnant feeling and absolutely NOTHING is comfortable to wear. And I can’t think of anything nicer to roll up into your hospital bag, [...]



Chan, Pie and Gnon

Ages and ages and a-a-a-ges ago we reviewed the oh-so-lovely Sophie the Giraffe. Well, Vulli, the French company who makes these classic teether ‘chew toys’ for babies has brought out a new range, all rather sweetly odd-looking, and based around mushrooms (hence the name…), and Hello Baby thought we might like to see what we [...]

Mighty World – have you spotted this stuff yet?

I have to admit it – the whole Mighty World thing kind of passed me by. And when we got asked to review I was a bit dubious. I mean – I have a house bursting at the seams with Lego (son. No.1) and Playmobil (son No.3) – really, how can this compete or compare? [...]



Safe childrens headphones – fab!

Finally! Headphones actually designed with children in mind! I won’t let mine wear the in-ear buds that came with their MP3 players, but I still worry that without constant monitoring (and often with it) they’ll have them up too loud and damage their ears. So when JVC contacted me about these new specially-designed 3+ headphones [...]



Yummy Swaddling Wraps by Aden & Anais

Sadly neither Katy or I had a delicious little newborn baby to try out he Aden & Anais swaddle from LushBaby, so we asked Bec from BeetrootandGherkins to help us out – Blossom seemed quite willing, so happily Bec said yes. Here’s what she thinks: You want my honest opinion? Of course you do! Well, [...]



Spotted! Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous bicycle *wants*

So the sun is out, we’re headed towards the summer holidays, and we all want to be outside as much as possible. But of course, a little dash of style here and there never goes astray – and I am a total sucker for a little vintage styling. I really don’t get my bike out [...]



Totally fab new NotOnTheHighStreet catalogue

One of my secret places to spend 10 minutes, NotOnTheHighStreet has featured a few times on this blog, and will no doubt appear many more. Altogether far nicer and easier to navigate than the American Etsy, I just love it for its charm and quirkiness. It always feels like wandering down winding alleyways in the [...]
