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: Fireman Sam – Jupiter Drive and Steer

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.

Review: Bambeano Baby Bean Bag

I am not keen on traditional Moses baskets and we decided to go straight to using a crib for Lydia, as we did with Georgie. This, however, meant that we wouldn’t be able to benefit from the portability of a Moses basket and would need something for her to sleep on downstairs. This is where the Bambeano comes in. A great alternative to a bouncy chair or Moses basket, the Bambeano is a shaped bean bag with a secure three-point harness, suitable from birth to around 6 months old.
