Work & Play with Jacamo {Review}

My husband rarely gets involved in my blog, he’s not really that interested (although he does on occasions pretend to be) but when we contacted recently and asked if we wanted to work with Jacamo he suddenly had a change of heart. We were asked if we (well, he not we) would like to review some of their range and although Jacamo was a brand I had heard of it wasn’t one either of us had shopped with before so were keen to take a look at what was on offer. We were immediately impressed with the range of not…

Easter Family Fun at Haydock Races {Review}

Last weekend we were kindly invited along to Haydock Races to experience their family fun day. As huge The Greatest Showman fans (well, me and this kids are, my husband not so much) we were delighted that this was the theme for the day. Looking at the weather outside at the moment it would be hard to believe the glorious sunshine we had last weekend but it was beautiful, the perfect weather for a day at the races. As well as the races itself the circus themed fun day had an inflatable assault course, face painting, a huge Ferris wheel…

Review: My First Thomas and Friends Railset

Knowing what to buy for a one year old is hard.  They can’t tell you what they want and whilst you can try your best to guess they are unpredictable in the toys they will love and the ones that will be left untouched in the bottom of the toy box.

Graco Evo Avant & Snug Ride i-Size Car Seat Review

I may have mentioned before I have a bit of a pushchair obsession.  I know the reason behind it, when I was pregnant with O I was lucky enough to win an online competition for a full travel system and our car seat and pushchair arrived, complete with a carrycot for a newborn.  The only problem was that it wasn’t what I personally would have chosen and I think I felt a bit robbed of the whole process of choosing the pram I wanted for my new baby.  Common sense (and money) meant that it would have been daft to…

Gertie The Good Goose Review

We escaped relatively unscathed when O was teething.  Apart from an odd day here or there his first teeth appeared without too much fuss.  Obviously I had bought a rather well known giraffe to help him through the teething pain but it was never really needed. G is a completely different baby to my eldest, they always say you don’t get two the same, and my boys are living proof of this.  G is a lot more vocal than O ever was and I feared teething would not be the mild experience we had had five years earlier.  Like his brother…
