Spotted! Owls! Hair Clips! Pretty!

Hair Clips. After three boys I had no idea. Really. No clue. Needless to say with a 4 yr old Pink one, I have finally been indoctrinated in the art. Snap clips are best, of course. but they do need to be pretty. Pink sparkly plastic is a no on the Mummy front. Plain and dull are a no on the girl front. When I saw the amazing range of hair clips at Peanut & Pip there was a bit of *happy* all round then. Cute felt ones? In two...

Spotted! Petra Boase notebook

This slightly-smaller-than-A5 notebook is exactly the size I need to fit in my handbag. And adorably quirky too, in a Petra Boase flavoured way. Filled with 64 pages of plain paper, it reminds me of an old fashioned school exercise book. Best of all, it’s a snip at £3.50!

The Castle of Courage from ELC

NB – if you’re here looking for the instructions to ELC’s Castle Of Courage, just click here. We found them for you!   I wasn’t sure either of my boys would be interested in the Castle of Courage. Neither of them has shown much interest in any sort of role-play game, but they were both keen to help me get on and build the castle, which was a bit of a challenge… There are a LOT of pieces, but fortunately...
