Autumn Spotted! Figs & Rouge Lip Balm
This isn’t so much a Spotted! as it is a BUY IT NOW! bossiness post. This lip balm is.. brilliant. Seriously and honestly. It’s always this time of year that my lips start to play up, but not so this year. Not with that little pot of magic on stand by. So many good things I can hardly tell you – it’s organic, it’s the perfect consistency, it’s a shot of pepperminty tea tree to your lips which is...
Spotted. Totem Creative Card Horse from Habitat
“A build-it-yourself 3D horse made from 32 interlocking cardboard pieces, pressed out from beautifully designed sheets. The super sturdy recycled cardboard panels are printed on both sides with creative prints. Endless building fun for anyone 6+ years.” Such a beautiful and noble steed.

Madagascar 3 Xbox 360 Game Review
Alex the Lion, Melman the Giraffe, Gloria the Hippo and Marty the Zebra… oh, how we love them all in this house! So I was a le-e-etle bit happy when we were sent a copy of the game to go with the latest film release to try out. Of course, it’s aimed at children 3+ – but where’s the point in letting the youngest have all the fun? So the 11yr old and I threw ourselves into the action first… The game follows...
