We were offered a Wauwaa voucher, so that we could try out the website and also review some of the clothing they had on offer. At the time of our shopping, Toby tiger was the brand that immediately jumped out at me as my favourite, and it didn’t take long to choose our items to order.
Georgie really enjoys the Woolly and Tig tv show on Cbeebies, so when they contacted me to let me know that an iPad was being launched, I was looking forward to checking it out. Unfortunately, the game doesn’t have quite the same level of appeal as the tv show. The main idea of the app is to entertain children, while making every day activities seem more fun.
Last year we reviewed a Melody doll from the Bigjigs Dolls range, as part of the fantastic Play Patrol scheme we have been taking part in since last Spring, and she rapidly became Georgie’s favourite toy. For Christmas, our lucky little girl was given the Bigjigs Daisy Doll Cradle by my parents, and James & I treated her to a new toy pushchair too – all for play time with Melody.
I had no idea which flowers I was due to receive when Debenhams said they were going to send me a bouquet to review from their Valentines range, so when these luxury Grandprix roses arrived I was blown away by how beautiful they were.
Just before Christmas, we were contacted with the offer of a gift from Direct Line of a brand new artificial Christmas tree. I appreciate that this review may have been more useful posted in early December, but the tree arrived in the nick of time on Christmas Eve, just hours before we planned to decorate the house. It’s a good thing my parents like to stick to the traditional 12 days of Christmas for decoration!
We were sent three items of MikaB Teething Jewellery to review; the Violet Red Necklace, the Violet Red Bangle, and the Medium Purple Circle Pendant.
I love the concept of teething jewellery; child friendly necklaces and bracelets that can be tugged upon, gnawed at, banged about & generally abused and used to relieve teething pain. Young babies and toddlers are known for being fascinated by adults’ jewellery and so stuff they can chew and play with is ideal.
We were sent one of these duvets to review a few weeks ago, and have been luxuriating in it’s wonderful fluffiness ever since. Definitely a case of love at first snuggle, this duvet is really comfy and cosy to sleep under, whilst still being breathable and light-weight.
As soon as I told my husband James that we were going to be reviewing one of these toys, he was excited. The little boy in him was delighted at the prospect of a remote-control vehicle with a steering wheel to turn instead of switches to flick. A fire engine, no less!
The first time he played with it, he loved it. He whizzed it around our laminate flooring quite happily, manoeuvring it quite well around the corners, and we both even managed to do some 3 (ok, maybe 4 or 5) point turns with the little fire truck.
Georgie really enjoyed this DVD, Sooty is one of those classic shows that appeals to children of all ages. The cover art is fun and appealing – our little girl picked this one out of a pile to watch first, so it must be good!
We were sent a few items from the mOmma range by Lansinoh, and the thermal plate is the first thing we tried out.
A clever concept, this plate is hollow inside, allowing you to fill it with hot water to keep your child’s food warm while they eat. It is easy to fill up with water and has two different sections for your food, ideal for a “section eater”!
