Danone Light and Free X Orla Kiely

Posted on May 6, 2018 by jenny

I love collaborations! I don’t usually eat breakfast but that didn’t stop me looking for the latest collaboration between Danone Light and Free X Orla Kiely. You all know how much I love my Orla Kiely handbags. Some of her homeware has crept into my house but generally I’m limited to a new handbag on my…

What we’re watching on Netflix this Spring

Posted on May 2, 2018May 2, 2018 by jenny

Can you believe I’ve been a member of the Netflix Stream Team for a whole year? I’m not sure what’s more surprising. How quickly a year has gone by or how many great shows we’ve watched on Netflix! We were already fans of Netflix but I have to say that I have had so much…

The Exclusive Heinz X Cath Kidston Collector’s Box

I know I haven’t written about my Cath Kidston obsession for quite a while, and then two posts come along (just like the bus!). Whilst I was in the West End last week I popped into Cath Kidston for a look around. One of the window displays was full of a collaboration between Cath Kidston…

Hello Kitty Kruisers on Nintendo Switch

Posted on May 1, 2018 by jenny

We love gaming, especially my 8 year old. Both my children are allowed time to play their favourite games when they have finished their homework. My 6 year old hasn’t found as many games she enjoys playing, unlike her older brother who will try anything. She was excited to discover that Hello Kitty Kruisers, by Rising…

Not only is May when we celebrate Star Wars Day, thank you May 4th, but it also sees the highly anticipated release of Solo: A Star Wars Story on the May 25th here in the UK. Have you seen the trailer? I think it looks pretty exciting and I can’t wait to watch the film. The…

The weather has been really poor over the last few days which means we have been stuck indoors quite a lot. Thankfully my daughter was sent the new Num Noms Glitter Lip Gloss Truck Playset to review. She loves her cute and collectible Num Noms and this has been a great addition to her collection….

The Sapphire Widow by Dinah Jefferies

Posted on April 27, 2018 by jenny

Over the last few weeks I’ve been reading The Sapphire Widow by Dinah Jefferies. You may remember the author’s name as I really enjoy reading her books and have reviewed some of them here over the last few years. Today I wanted to tell you a little about her latest book, The Sapphire Widow. The Sapphire…

Mighty Muggs collectible figures from Hasbro

Posted on April 25, 2018April 25, 2018 by jenny

We review quite a few collectibles here because they are so popular with my children. I was exactly the same when I was younger, I collected rubbers, stickers, pretty much anything. Today there are so many more things for children to collect, many tied to their favourite programme. We were recently sent a couple of…
