We’re really enjoying Dora and Friends: Into the City!. Little Sis is now 3 and I think Into the City reflects the world that she is growing up in. She received some of the wonderful new Dora and Friends toys to review. These included the new Dora and Friends 8″ dolls, Dora and Friends Magic Charm bracelet, Dora Magic Adventure Charms and Dora and Friends Toy Smartphone. We’ve had great fun making our own charm bracelets, just like Dora. We liked the fact Little Sis was able to choose which charms she wanted to use and put them on herself.…

Earlier this year Schleich introduced some new products to their Farm life range. A few months ago we reviewed the Schleich horse riding arena and we were sent some items from the new range which complement this set. We love Schleich toys, they are beautifully made with an amazing level of detail. They are great for imaginative play and the children have been having fun with the horse riding arena. It came with a horse, rider and a few accessories but I like the fact you can buy more. We received 3 horses, the Knabstrupper mare (item 13769), Tennessee Walker…

My 5 year old has quite simple tastes in toys, if it has wheels he’s generally happy. He especially loves Hot Wheels cars, and so do I, as they are pocket money-friendly.
