At the end of last week we received a really exciting parcel from Hasbro. It contained some of the new toys released to coincide with the latest Transformers film, The Last Knight. My kids love Transformers so I was excited to see what they thought. They are a little obsessed with making videos at the moment so we made an unboxing video of the new Transformers The Last Knight toys from Hasbro. Take a look and see what my cheeky 5 and 7 year old had to say about them. Transformers: The Last Knight (also known as Transformers 5) is a new…

It’s been a while since we have reviewed any Aquabeads sets. Both the children (aged 5 and 7) enjoy Aquabeads. They are the perfect after school activity for them, as they require a little bit of concentration, and peace and quiet for me! Aquabeads Finding Dory playset Dory might not remember her unforgettable adventures but you can make your favourite characters to help remind her. Just keep Aquabeading with this Finding Dory Playset which includes over 780 beads in 11 colours and three template sheets which let you make Dory, Nemo, his father Marlin and Hank. Just in case you…

Are you excited about Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2? Star-Lord is my favourite super hero and I love Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1. The film is all about a group of intergalactic criminals who are forced to work together to stop a fanatical warrior from taking control of the universe. It has the best bunch of misfits I’ve ever seen and I admit to watching this film whenever I can. It’s worth watching for Star-Lord, aka Chris Pratt (swoon!), but I also love his intergalactic criminals friends, and soundtrack is brilliant too. What’s not to like? I’m hoping to get to the cinema…

My daughter loves dogs but it’s just not practical to get a real one at the moment. I was hoping that she might enjoy the new Peppy Pups plush toy dog from Flair. There are a couple of different dogs in the range, including a cute Pug and Dalmatian. We received the Peppy Pups Pug, a very cute little plush dog, complete with collar and lead. This is a vey sweet toy for children aged 3 and over, and the perfect pet for children who keep asking for their very own puppy! Peppy Pups Peppy Pups loves to run, jump…

Yesterday I noticed the children were getting a little bored and beginning to bicker. As a parent I know how important it is to let your children be bored. It’s good for thing and often they will think of something to do which is much better than I ever come up with. So I thought I would help them out a little by getting out the tuff spot. Paw Patrol sensory play The tuff spot is one of the best value things we have ever purchased. It’s great outdoors but we’ve brought it in a few times if the weather…

The beautiful weather we were enjoying over the Easter holidays has gone so we’ve been spending more time indoors recently. The kids are desperate to play outside but have had to adapt to indoors games. April is such a changeable month and we are so ready for sunshine! Schleich Eldrador range Our Schleich collection has been out a lot and we were delighted to receive one of the Schleich Eldrador Dragons to review. We hadn’t heard of the Eldrador series before. Eldrador is the wonderful knight’s adventure in a world of fiery volcanoes, icebergs and huge castles. The range includes dragons, Griffin Knights, Dragon…

I think it’s pretty apt that my last post was about baking. We’re a family who loves to spend time in the kitchen and our last bake, fingerprint cookies, went down pretty well. So I knew that my 5 year old would love to review the Sylvanian Families Cake Decorating Set. Sylvanian Families Cake Decorating Set My daughter has collected Sylvanian Families for years. It’s easily one of her favourite toys and I love that she can play with the figures, the buildings, vehicles or just get everything out and cover the floor for days on end. We thought we would…
