Fisher Price Lion Booster Seat Review

The Fisher Price lion booster seat has been seriously road tested in my house by my 2 year old, who takes meal times very seriously. Like all children’s equipment the seat came with a full instruction manual, in at least 12 languages. But frankly I managed to ‘assemble’ the lion head back to the seat base and then add the tray without the need to refer to the manual (pat on the back for me!), and the straps were...

Cosatto 3sixti Highchair – What WE Say…

The Cosatto 3sixti looks great. The seat is large with two recline positions, a padded cover, and an easily removable two-part tray (the top part can go in the dishwasher). The seat cover is easily removable, which is of course important since you need to clean underneath it. The chair’s easy to clean too, because it’s all moulded and rounded, so there aren’t so many nooks and crannies for all the junk to get wedged...

Pushchair – The Micralite Toro Review

  As always, we’re pretty excited for the Micralite Toro Review – who doesn’t love a new pushchair to put through its paces? ‘Toro’ means ‘bull’, a label which doesn’t accurately describe this buggy.

Adjustable to suit your grip,...

Bobux Soft Leather Childrens Slippers review

I have to admit I’m a bit of a late convert to slippers. Never wore them myself, and never really got why a thick pair of socks wasn’t better for the children’s feet than restrictive slippers. Then I did start to wear them myself (get thee away from me, cold feet), and was persuaded that they were quite nice – but still felt a pair of socks was better on small growing bones. Then the lovely Caroline at Ollipops (probably rolling her...

New Review – ‘The Day That…’

Holding onto time, tightly, and attempting to slow its relentless progress is a quiet occupation of us parents. Taking photos, video clips, carefully packing away baby clothes and glorious first works of art are all part of it. Is there something we’ve forgotten to preserve? Is there another way we haven’t yet thought of to help us sustain and protect our memories? Well, ‘The Day That…’ and their wonderfully unique idea give us...

Gorgeous wooden mobile from HABA review

Looking for a loud, garish, all-singing-all-dancing mobile? Then this is not for you. But if you, like me, love wooden, beautifully crafted mobiles? Then you will love the HABA Buzz Buzz mobile. And your little one will too. Honest. As soon as I opened the box I was in love. It’s just so cute! We tossed our other mobile aside (also a little wooden one) and put this one up, and my little one was very impressed. First she stared,...
