Kickers Lego School Shoes

Shoes are a tricky thing to talk about – I mean, just how exciting can a pair of school shoes be? Well… if they have Lego bricks on them, apparently very exciting :) The collaboration between Kickers and Lego has meant that for the first time ever the 7yr old is very very VERY excited to put his shoes on in the morning – and to keep them clean too. Oh yes – you heard me. He cleans them. Without prompting. There is a huge range of...

Spotted! At long long last – my search is over!

When my eldest son was a toddler, I came to that stage we all get to. You know. The bed-and-no-nappy stage. As any slightly experienced Mumma knows, this is the point that you Need Protection. Oh yes. I happened to be in Mothercare, and saw a handy bed mat, reduced to about £4. Bargainous! I snapped it up, and whistled on my merry way. Little was I to know that this was to be one of my Most Ace Buys. No, really. Ever. That very same...

Mamas & Papas Tour buggy review

When Piran reached six months old I was pleased to be able to use a lighter, umbrella folding style buggy for popping to the shops.

It has a carry handle and a shoulder strap which makes it easy to carry. Folded it is quite small and fitted easily into my boot with lots of room (and I...

(I mean – how cute is their LOGO, for goodness sake?)

Puppies and Soldiers in the garden…

… and an attractive Death Stalker (apparently) too. The puppy, of course The Soldier – hat and jacket models own. Sigh. The Death Stalker. Lovely. We’ve been sent a pack of face paints by the fab people at Snazaroo, so with a holiday afternoon meandering past and no one having any better suggestions I offered to paint a face. Or three. Well – my dodgy artistic efforts aside (GCSE art wasn’t much help) it...

Stripy Blankets!

Stand by for a bit of a love fest. See, I do love soft things. And stripy things. And lovely coloured things. And the blankets from the Stripy Blankets Company? All those things. Oh yes. And spots too. You need one. No, honestly. This blanket is perfect, and Pink adores it nearly as much as I do. And the best thing is that it’s such good quality I can see her still using it in 20 years time. Despite her best ministrations, this...
