LEGO – where did it all go wrong?
There has been much talk on many blogs over recent weeks over the new LEGO Friends. I’m not going to start yet another blithering on the ghastly hideousness of the stereotyping subject matter of these sets – suffice to say that it’s just… bad. But I do want to say something quite important. This… … is not a LEGO set. Sorry, but it’s not. It’s a small figure playset, for sure, but what...
Spotted! Zebra Babygrow! *swoon*
Oh, I just LOVE this! ‘course, we pretty much love everything from the Burp! Boutique, but this zebra babygrow makes me grin a bit. PLUS it’s 100% super soft cotton. PLUS it’s made right here in Blighty. Fabulous. Available in sizes 0-12mths for berzackly Twenty of your pounds from the Burp! Boutique. Go Buy one.
Spotted! Vintage Polka Dot Tin Tea Set!
Lovely, no? I think it’s glorious. And I’d like to play. The 14 piece teaset with four little cups, saucers and plates, that totally swoonworthy teapot (*swoon*) even comes in that fabulous little suitcase. *meeep!* The retro Red Polka Dot ton Tea set is available for 22 of your pounds from those lovely people at Armstrong Ward
Spotted! Boobie Milk Rocks!
*grin* Just love this organic baby vest! The baby vest is made from 100% unbleached organic cotton, in size 3-6m (sizing is apparently ‘generous’). A popper under £13 from Read My Rhyme over on NOTHS.
Spotted! Personalised Mugs. Good Ones.
This is a bit more than a Spotted! item. Sometimes we come across a product that we just happen to love – so we talk about them. I’ve used YourDesign a number of times, and they are unfailingly excellent. The above mug is the (rather ridiculous) one I bought for Fathers day a couple of years ago – and it is still in use every single day. Father Christmas bought one for No.1 son this Christmas – he’s far...
Bic’s wipeboard for children? Under £4? Brilliant, that’s what it is.
We love this little board. We SO do. Pone side is squared graph paper, and the other side is blank. There is a clip at the top which is a rubber and also a clip for the pen. Simple, neat and SO handy. I have a 5yr old girl, and she loves or draw and write. Constantly and endlessly. And I know she’s not alone in her obsession. But keeping up with it in terms of paper is hideousness – a problem which this board neatly...
