    Fun at The Grossery Gang Movie London premiere

    August 1, 2017 - By 

    My 7 year old just loves The Grossery Gang. They can be found in Cheap Town, a once bustling urban metropolis BUT ever since the mega motorway to Sales City was built there hasn’t been a single customer in this now run down town! Don’t feel bad though, SOMETHING has been left behind…take a peek inside the Yucky Mart and you might just catch The Grossery Gang hanging out in the vile aisles! This crusty crew of putrid products have hit their expiration dates and festered to life to create their own brand of filthy fun! My son loves his Grossery Gang,…

    Flip Ultra HD video review

    November 22, 2010 - By 

    Today I returned the Flip Ultra we were sent to review and I thought I would take the opportunity to blog what we thought of it. I really enjoyed using the Flip Ultra as it was so easy to use by me, my husband, and extended family. We were surprised by the quality of the videos considering the small size of the Flip Ultra although the quality noticeably degrades when using the digital zoom. The sound quality is good and we loved that the USB was internal. We thought that the plastic screen could be scratched quite easily but it…

    Bath time

    November 21, 2010 - By 

    Edward still *just* fits in his baby bath but I don’t think we’ll be using it for much longer. I couldn’t resist this little video that daddy took of Edward enjoying himself this evening. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jj-qCouA7Rc&fs=1&hl=en_US] We will be returning the Flip Ultra tomorrow. We’ve had a lot of fun using it and got some great videos to keep. We’ll be posting our thoughts on it tomorrow.

    Toast and swimming

    November 19, 2010 - By 

    Edward enjoying his breakfast toast – he turned his nose up at his usual porridge with banana![youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMyrg54hkhE&fs=1&hl=en_US] We went swimming today which was great. I was supposed to dunk Edward right under the water twice but I was only brave enough to do it once! I’m not sure he’s completely happy with the dunking aspect of his swimming class but apart from that he loves splashing around. I wish I was able to take some photographs or video of his swimming. Edward spends a lot of the time with his mouth open whilst I swoosh him around. I wonder when…

    Flip Ultra

    November 15, 2010 - By 

    Following my Lady GaGa moment I have been sent a lovely Flip Ultra to review for a week. A week doesn’t seem a long time but Edward seems to learn a new skill every day so I am challenging myself to make a video of him every day and use my poor neglected YouTube account. The last couple of days we have been visiting my poor father in law who fell 12 feet off a ladder. Whilst staying in a hotel Edward seemed to practically roll over and stand up simultaneously! I’m looking forward to trying to capture these gymnastics.…

    Review: Miffy rattle car

    October 26, 2010 - By 

    The lovely people at Miffy sent Edward a toy from the new selection of classic Miffy toys which have never been available in the UK before. The Miffy rattle car is suitable from 6 months and features a chunky handle – prefect for little chubby fingers learning to grip. Each of the four wheels contains small balls, which provide the rattle, and feature Dick Bruna’s other well known characters. The rattle makes a noise when pushed along.At 7 months Edward is interested in toys he can really interact with so I wasn’t sure how much fun he would have with…

    QuinnyCaster

    September 21, 2010 - By 

    I’m very proud to announce that I am a QuinnyCaster! A couple of weeks ago I saw a tweet advertising for mums and dads to test drive the new Quinny Zapp Xtra. In return the QuinnyCasters share their experiences on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Flickr. I love social media so was keen to apply and I was lucky! Yay! I even get to keep the Quinny Zapp Xtra after six months which is a godsend as our current pram has seen better days. I can’t wait to get my hands on it and take Edward out for a spin 🙂…
