    Win a Munchkin Bath Shape Sorter

    My children love bath time and were pretty happy to receive the latest products from Munchkin which revolve round bathtime. Munchkin have lots of great gift ideas for the festive season to make bath time more fun. My children particularly loved the following: Sea Sparkle Bath Gems (£5.99) the three small gems float and rattle and fit inside the pretty seashell case when not in use. The sea shell case also floats for added bath time fun and the set aids shape and colour recognition. 3 pack Pour and Strain Whales (£2.99) are great for scooping up water. The Undersea…

    Sweet dreams

    Both my children have had eczema. Fortunately they’ve grown out of as they’ve got older, except for poor Little Sis who has small patches of it behind her knees. I was recommended Soothing Baby Balm by Green People which really helped the itching and dry skin. So when they got in touch about reviewing their certified organic toiletries range for children I was very happy to try other products. Green People review We were sent Baby Wash & Shampoo as well as a new Shampoo, both were tried out by the children at bath time. The toddler chose the Berry…

    Making bath time fun

    I often find bath times can be quite stressful with two children. Lately I’ve been putting the baby in her bath in the big bath with the toddler. This way they both have a bath and seem to enjoy each others’ company. The baby loves kicking her feet and splashing and the toddler loves playing with water. It sounds like it should be fun but it’s not for me. I seem to constantly tell the toddler to sit down, be careful, don’t splash and other boring parenting phrases. To bring back some fun we’ve been trying some new baby bath…

    Maclaren Kid Testing

    We’ve now been using our lovely beginning….bath products at every bath time for the last week. Edward is taking his responsibilities as a Maclaren Kid Tester very seriously and we’ve been looking at each product, having a chew on the packaging and smelling each bottle before use. Bath time is usually quite simple as we generally only use E45 bath oil but we’ve been pleasantly surprised how easy it’s been to incorporate the Maclaren range of products during and after Edward’s bath time. Edward loves the bath products, they make his skin very soft and help him relax. We usually…

    beginning… by Maclaren (initial thoughts)

    As you know Edward is an official Maclaren Kid Tester and he was recently sent beginning… by Maclaren bath products to test out in his everyday life. The other day we were very excited to receive a parcel containing beginning… by Maclaren. The packaging is beautiful and just what you would expect from such a well known brand. Edward loves anything new so was eager to hold (and suck) the packaging. The travel kit for baby contains miniatures of their natural and organic-based ingredients without harmful toxic or chemical additives. As a new mum I try to use only organic…
