For a long time Little Sis has been obsessed with Peppa Pig. Thankfully she’s recently become interested in other toys and has been building up a little collection of Sylvanian Families, or ‘Families’ as she calls them. I remember them from my own childhood so I’m pleased to see they’re still going strong. Created in…

Meadow Kids
Every afternoon Big Brother attends nursery at the local Primary School. Little Sis and I love our time together and we can usually be found watching Frozen doing puzzles together, painting or playdough. She loves to be busy which is why we were excited to be sent some products from Meadow Kids who are an…
Win a Leapfrog Creativity Camera
I’m always keen to encourage my children’s learning so was delighted to be sent some Leapfrog products to try with them. Leapfrog sell a huge range of learning toys which range from tablets to gaming systems, reading and writing toys. Both my children already have a My Pal Violet and My Pal Scout and Big…
The Creation Station!
A couple of weeks ago I saw a poster advertising the Creation Station, educational creative fun. As soon as I saw it I knew it would be perfect for my 4 year old. Since Little Sis has come along we’ve found it really hard to find an organised activity they can both do but with…
Gruffalo Story Stones

Little Tikes Jelly Bean Racer
As well as the Little Tikes 4-in-1 Trike Sports Edition we reviewed yesterday, Little Sis was also sent the brand new Little Tikes Jelly Bean Racer. It was easy to get out of its packaging and Little Sis was able to sit on it and move around straight away. When I got it out of…
Little Tikes 4-in-1 Trike Sports Edition
Little Sis was recently sent two brand new toys from Little Tikes to review and tell you about. She’s been having great fun with both of them – the Little Tikes 4-in-1 Trike Sports Edition and the Little Tikes Jelly Bean. We’ve written a blog post about each item as we felt they deserved it!…
Peep Peep! Remote Control Thomas
My 2 year old is very curious about the world and has been having great fun with a RC Thomas she was sent from Fisher-Price. It’s a great toy for developing motor skills and allows her to use trial and error to master the simple buttons on the remote control and move Thomas around. This…
