Mamas and Papas Harewood Cotbed Review

I did wonder if I was the best person to review this cot bed. Y’see, I’m no connoisseur of cots. My first cot (an old M&P dark wood spindle affair) was handed to us from friends, and performed beautifully for my two eldest, despite its age. Third time round was trickier – the cot was still in use by Joe when Toby had outgrown the crib. A quick trawl of local classifieds answered our dilemma, and Toby was soon installed in a lovely...

Prima Pappa Review

This highchair has won a whole pile of awards, so I had expectations of it being good – you don’t really expect much less from a company like Mamas and Papas. But my own last highchair left me with a feeling of mistrust for these big plastic highchairs, so I was ready to give this one a proper run for its money. I was determined that just because Mamas & Papas want to advertise with us I would NOT recommend another...

Rockin baby pouch

Baby pouches… well. I had used the wilkinet with Boy & Jolly (but the straps ARE a faff).

Then Sandra at SaSaSlings sent us a Rockin’ Baby Pouch to try out. With a spirit of...

Baby Banz childrens sunglasses and childrens sunhats reviews

Childrens sun hats are the bane of my life. They don’t fit, they don’t stay on, they get lost, the children don’t like them so they won’t wear them, the ones they do like don’t provide enough protection…. Ugh. So I have to admit I was less than enthusiastic at trying out the Baby Banz stuff, despite being prompted that I would love them. Hats for a 4mth old? Mm-hmmm. And sunglasses? I have to admit...

Baby Banz Review

Right then, Baby Banz what’s all that about?- I was told I would love them so I tried these out, and …. I have to admit, I was sure I would be in the “well, they’re okay, but a bit unnecessary” camp. WRONG! I LOVE these! Ella’s sunglasses I’m still thinking are possibly not necessary yet and will probably just live in the car. Toby adores his, feels like a rock star in them and its a job to...
