Review: Yoplait Petit Filous Pouches

Both Georgie and Lydia really enjoy yoghurts, and a little pot each is usually their normal pudding after dinner. Strawberries are Georgie’s favourite fruit, so she was excited to see the strawberry pouches! We bought one or two pouches of each type so that both girls could try each fruit flavour.

These pouches come in three flavours, raspberry, strawberry & apricot. All three were very much enjoyed by the girls, who declared them to be “yummy-delicious!”

Review: Tommee Tippee 12m+ Active Sippee Cup

Lydia has been trialling this cup since the baby show, and she really loves it. The no spill cup lives up to it’s name and Lydia hasn’t been able to spill any, despite her best efforts.

This cup is insulated without being too heavy, and a lovely size and shape for Lydia’s little hands. She really likes this cup, and won’t share it with Georgie at all. The insulation is great for keeping milk cool on warm days, which is brilliant in this weather as our living room gets quite warm in the mornings. Lydia has definitely been drinking more milk since we got this cup, as I don’t have to worry so much about her cup of milk sitting around getting warm.

Review: Swizzels Spring Selection tub

Swizzels Sping Selection tub is a £5 resealable tub full of the Swizzels best sellers – I’m sure everyone in the UK with a sweet tooth will recognise it’s contents, and if you are anything like me then you will be reminded of some childhood memories involving sweetshops and pocket money!
The blue tub is bright and cheerful, containing fruity pops, parma violets, refresher bars, love hearts, fissures, drumsticks, and double lollies – all the best Swizzels sweets (although I must confess a weakness for the new Squashies).

Review: Bigjigs Toys Young Chef’s Baking Set (#BJ605)

Georgie loves to bake with me so when we were sent this baking set to review she was over the moon. The Bigjigs Toys Young Chef’s Baking Set includes child size versions of almost everything you need to bake cakes or biscuits, including a tiny oven glove which is utterly adorable.

Review: Personalised Wooden Cheese Board Set from Getting Personal

When Getting Personal contacted me to see if I would like to review any of their Father’s Day Gifts range, it wasn’t hard for me to narrow it down to one of their engraved cheeseboards. I am married to a cheese addict, and I don’t mean dodgy films and disco songs. My husband will quite often disappear into the kitchen 10 minutes before bedtime to make himself a slice of cheese on toast before heading to bed!

Review: Old El Paso Mexican food

We were sent a range of Old El Paso products to try out, and have been enjoying having a taste of Mexico in our house. James and I honeymooned in Mexico so it was lovely to have an edible reminder of that most special holiday, too. Original Taco Kit – with the taco kit you get tacos, spice mix, and salsa. You need to buy some mince, lettuce, tomato & cheese to go with this kit. The mince is cooked up with the spice mix, the taco shells warmed in the oven, and the other ingredients cropped & grated to pile into your taco shells with your mince.
