My son loves playing with cars so was excited to be sent the Go Mini Crew-zers HQ Playset. This exciting new addition to the Go Mini range includes a playset with 3 levels and a Go Mini Crew-zer car with stickers to customise. The Go Mini Crew-zers HQ Playset was really easy to put together…

Child’s play – Ikea dolls house furniture
A couple of weeks ago we made a special trip to Ikea to pick up the new Huset range, which is Swedish for ‘the house’, I previously wrote about. Like most households in the UK we have a fair amount of Ikea furniture, mainly Expedit bookshelves. Sitting and writing this I can see 3 of…
Win a Peppa Pig Play Tent
The weather has been perfect the last couple of days. We’ve been enjoying our lovely new garden which is just the right size for the children to run around in. Over the weekend my husband finished building them a beautiful wooden playhouse and today a new sand pit arrived – hopefully these will keep them…
King of his castle
It’s no surprise that I’m spending most of my time thinking about our new house. We are waiting (impatiently!) to hear that we’ve exchanged contracts and fingers crossed that will happen any day. This time round we’re paying a removal firm to pack and move us. With two small people it’s pretty impossible to concentrate…
Charity shop addiction
I may have lost my blogging mojo but I’m very glad I’ve still got my charity shop addiction. In fact I was very happy to be out straight after Christmas, especially as we were visiting my mum and she has some great shops where she lives. Over the last couple of weeks I’ve picked up…

Wood Green charity shops
We’ve lived in Wood Green in north London for the last 6 years but have only visited the handful of charity shops a couple of times. However, last week we popped into Oxfam and were rewarded with a haul! First up were two new-to-us Thomas the Tank Engine DVDs. There was no way the toddler…
Am I too old for Lego?
The other day we went to Westfield Stratford. I love that place as, although I’m not a big shopper, I love the fact that I can visit John Lewis, Waitrose and Lakeland all under one roof. There’s also plenty of places to eat, a fab viewing platform over the Olympic site, a pop-up Cath Kidston…
Teignmouth charity shops
Our holiday was going quite well until my husband slipped and twisted his ankle. This meant that yesterday I had to entertain the children whilst my husband went to A&E. After exhausting the possibilities of the play park, beach and pier I thought I deserved a treat. Teignmouth is brilliant for charity shops and I never leave…
