Our whole family are Disney fans – even James – in fact, our first dance at our wedding (pre kids!) was a Disney song. I love watching Disney films – and a good thing too, because the girls adore them as much as I did when I was growing up!
Lydia stopped wearing sleeping bags when she moved into her toddler bed, switching to a small duvet & blankets. The only problem is she does not stay still while sleeping. Her bed is very low to the floor so she doesn’t wake up when she wriggles out of it; consequently we never know whether she will even be in her bed when we go in to check on them at night, let alone what position she is in or whether she has managed to stay covered up.
We were sent the Diono Monterey2 high back booster for Georgie to test out, and the timing couldn’t have been more perfect; Georgie is just at that stage between nearly growing out of her toddler car seat, and just going over the minimum requirements of a booster seat. Being so tall yet skinny, Georgie is really light for her age and obviously we wanted to wait until her weight was definitely over the 15kg lower limit – which meant waiting until now.
We were invited to choose a party pack to review from Party Bags & Supplies, and as the kids are loving the Minions at the moment (who isn’t?!), we chose this Despicable Me Minions set, which costs just £22.00 and contains party supplies for 8 people.
We took the Lindam Funpack Harness with us on holiday to Cornwall and found it so useful for Lydia. This product is basically a small toddler-sized backpack to which you can attach a rein, preventing your child from walking too far from you.
The backpack is the perfect size for Lydia; at 18 months she is a very confident walker & climber and is displaying a fair amount of independence, wanting to walk with us but not always hanging onto our hand. This backpack allows her to walk on her own, but stops her from running off.
The LumiPotti is a potty with a night light, designed for 24 hour use. My initial thoughts when I opened the box were that it seems to be good quality, with a decent thickness and strength to the plastic – not at all flimsy like some super cheap potties I’ve seen.
We were sent the Stack n Store Sippy, On-the-Go Fork and Spoon and Tote-Along Snacker to try out from the brand new Fisher-Price feeding range that is being launched at Boots stores this week, and Lydia and Georgie have been putting them to the test.
After being pleased with my September and October boxes, I have to say that my November box was a disappointment in comparison. Arriving near the end of the month, the box seemed fairly empty and only one or two of the items really excited me.
My initial impression of this suitcase was really good, and it hasn’t disappointed. We have used it during our house move to transport bits & pieces for the girls in, and it is going to be the perfect case for Georgie to use for her occasional sleepovers at Granny’s house in the future.
This is the second Nonabox we have received to review, and I am pleased to say this one was as good as the first, if not better.
A quick introduction to the concept: Nonabox is a subscription box service (similar to the popular beauty boxes) where you pay a regular fee and each month a mystery box of products arrives. The Nonabox is suitable from pregnancy to 2 years, and is customised to suit the age and gender of your baby, or your pregnancy.
