Parent’s Guide to Back To School Computers – 10% discount code Chillblast
We know, we know. It’s that time of year; your teen goes back to school (or off to Uni), and there suddenly seem to be more demands than ever for work to be completed online, use online resources or at the very least for work to be submitted by email. You thought it had been bad in the holidays, but now fighting for space on the family laptop becomes a daily struggle. And that’s not even mentioning their downtime leisure...
Hands up who wants to win a Peanuts Charlie Brown Moleskine planner?
If there’s one thing that everyone loves, it’s a great planner. And when you’re talking great notebooks and planners, Moleskine are never very far away. We featured their spectacularly awesome Batman notebook last week, but they also sent us a Peanuts 18mth planner; perfect for anyone ruled by the school year. And did you miss the fact that it’s a Limited Edition PEANUTS version? Complete with perfect Charlie...
Now this is genius – free kids wall sticker decals!
We’re already huge fans of Room To Grow, and I was meandering around their site the other day looking for a captain’s bed. Look at the one I found; the rather perfect Henri Captain’s Bed. Isn’t it GORGEOUS? Small yet perfectly formed, not so high as to be inaccessible for sick-child-parenting or bed-linen-changing, not so small as to be impractical and useless in the storage stakes. AND it looks great too. I...
John Lewis – price-match + 3 year warranty on Apple products for September!
So they’re all back to school, or maybe setting off to Uni in just a few more days. And you’re starting to think that maybe they really do need that new laptop/desktop/tablet they’ve been badgering you for all summer. Well before you head to your nearest High Street electrical store, make sure you check John Lewis. Possibly not your first thought, but seriously; I get all my big electricals from them. Because not...

Oh my – we reached Day 7 – and that means it’s the end of #BackToSchoolBooks week. But fear not – we’re finishing on a proper good one. Obviously we’re at the top of the school tree by now – we’re into 6th form, and it’s A Level time for the 16 & 17yr olds. By the time they reach here, the studying gets serious, doesn’t it? There’s a big jump from GCSE to...
Win a complete £125 GCSE Study Bundle, plus an Animal bag! #BackToSchoolBooks
And if you’ve been following us all week, you’ll have worked out that today we’ve reached the GCSE stage. When your kids are small, it feels so very far away – an impossibly big age for your precious small child to ever reach. And yet any parent of a teen will tell you to think twice – it’s impossibly fast, just how quickly it happens. I’m pretty sure my biggest boy was nine a couple of years...
