Autumn Spotted! Pyjamas! With Dogs!
Brilliant, no? just.. love them. Right down to their bonkers-coloured cuffs. These Hatley pyjamas are 100% cotton, and come in sizes 2-12yrs. Talk about cheering up an early morning, waking to find yourself in these! Hatley Dog pyjamas are £21 from John Lewis
Patent School Shoes. Would you? (yes!)
School Shoes. Bane of my life, they are. And it’s not just the perpetual growing out of them – what do they DO in them to make them such a state? *shudder* When Start-rite asked if we’d like to review a pair, I snapped their hand off. Obviously. And once we’d finally made it through the trial of the Red Shoes, we actually got to take a look at the practical school shoes selection. And she was off again…...
Madagascar 3 Xbox 360 Game Review

So I was a le-e-etle bit happy when we were sent a copy of the game to go with the latest film release to try out.

So when The Wise House sent these Mac & ninny bookplates to review, I couldn’t resist them. They’re GORGEOUS! And much nicer than I...
Review – fab sunglasses for children
Sunglasses for children. Do you? I didn’t… but then thought – “why do I need them, and yet presume that my children with their still-developing eyes do not?” So heading off to France this year we were kindly provided with a couple of pairs of children’s sunglasses by the Sunglasses Shop.
