Element Thorium 300 Gaming Keyboard – Review
Gaming Keyboards – until it appears on a birthday or Christmas wish-list, most parents won’t even know that such a thing exists. But once you’re a parent of a teen gamer, it’s very difficult to get away from them. And then you’re faced with buying one – and not only are they a baffling thing to purchase wisely for a non-gamer type, but they’re also an expensive way to buy a keyboard. So when...
Batman Moleskine – Finally, a notebook for boy teens #BackToSchool
Tomorrow my boy starts school. No, he’s not five; No.1 turned 16 in January, and after two years of Home Ed he’s re-entering the system for his A levels. So the last few weeks have been a weird combination of grumpy denial (I do NOT like being retsricted to school term dates again!), floating sadness (we’re going to miss hi and his mugs of tea) and excited preparations. About the only things we’ve not had to...

But actually, it’s not that I don’t love chocolate. I really do. But what I love is not just...
Bamboo Babygrow – most excellent baby pyjamas (*WARNING – CUTE baby alert)
The answer to baby pyjamas when the weather can’t make up its mind I don’t know about you but I’ve really struggled recently to know what to dress my baby in for bedtime. One minute it’s boiling hot, the next freezing cold. A vest on its own leaves her waking up chilly and grizzly an hour later but some of her regular babygros just make her hot and sweaty.

Baby Sheets Like You’ve Never Seen Before | Magnus & Mouse
When you’re kitting out your baby’s nursery, it’s easy to overlook the cot sheets. I mean, a sheet’s a sheet, right? Wrong. Until I’d stumbled across the 100% organic fitted cotton sheets from super-chic baby brand Magnus & Mouse I poured scorn on the thought of spending anything over £15 on cot sheets. But that was before. Imagine sleeping on the very best Egyptian cotton in a five star hotel and then returning to threadbare,...
