With our Easter holidays drawing to a close I must share one of the toys which have kept the children busy – Magic Tracks! Magic Tracks is a new track set system that is just hitting UK. Suitable for children from age 3, the set launched in the US last year and ended the year as one…
The children have been enjoying some much needed downtime recently and playing with all their toys. They were delighted to add to their Schleich collection with the Show jumper with Horse set. Schleich are brilliant quality and my children never have any trouble recognising the animals. This fun set includes 1x Hanoverian Mare, 1x rider,…
My children love an Easter Egg hunt. A little bit of me blames those YouTube videos I keep finding them watching. They would spend hours watching other children unboxing very large eggs if they could. However, this love of unboxing videos meant I didn’t hesitate when offered our very own L.O.L. Surprise!

As well as the new and re-booted Beauty and the Beast we are looking forward to Smurfs: The Lost Village. Smurfette (Demi Lovato), Brainy (Danny Pudi), Clumsy (Jack McBrayer) and Hefty (Joe Manganiello) use…
With my son’s birthday coming up you can imagine I have been quizzing him about what he wanted. He’s a creative boy with enough Lego sets to start his own toy shop. So this year I’ve been having a good look around for something a bit different. I’ve mentioned Wicked Uncle before. It’s an online…
