The Dodo Acad-Pad

Looking for a diary for the start of term? Look no further! In it’s own inimitable Dodo Style, the Acad-Pad is just… ace. Bags and bags of organisation at your fingertips – you’ll not miss a deadline again. Probably. No, seriously, I LOVE this pad. Every time I think “actually, it’d be really handy if it…” – it already does. Tear off corners so you can find where you are fast,...

Travelling with Children (Book review, not horror story. Honest).

I find booking family holidays incredibly stressful. In fact I always find myself considering not going rather than continuing with the stress of finding the perfect location, accommodation and date.

But as she headed towards proper school we found it was just too small to last all day for her, so now she has the...

Camp Bestival. Oh how we do love thee.

 We couldn’t make Camp Bestival this year – so we sent our intrepid roving reporter WitWitWoo. Who quite frankly did a better job than we would have done. She camped and EVERYTHING. This is her account of her first ever festival – grab a coffee before you start, you may be here some time… I have officially made it back from my first ever camping trip in one piece.  Quite frankly, I surprised even myself...

Philips AVENT 3-In-1 Steriliser Review – Steamin’ Hot. Of course.

Okay, so with our small people starting school in a couple of weeks (*gulp*) we’re a bit past the need for sterilisers. Happily, a quick shout on twitter brought us the lovely Boo & Me, who agreed to review it for us :) … I was excited to be asked to review the Avent 3-in-1 electric steam steriliser; I have never particularly got along with our steriliser and this one looked really interesting. It is different to...

Spotted! A Daisy Keyring. From Tiffany. *happy*

Want. Want want want want WANT. That’s all really. (yes, I know, it’s over £200 for a KEYRING. But anyone who knows me knows I have a bit of a thing for the humble daisy. And… it’s from Tiffany.
