*LOVE* these delicious Woodland Cosy Pyjamas from Powell Craft

As jane Austen might have said (if she knew they existed), it’s a truth universally acknowledged that every one needs a perfect pair of pyjamas. And Powell Craft? They make as near perfect as a person can get. We’ve been huge fans since wa-a-a-ay back when Snugg Nightwear sent us a beautiful Powell Craft Fairy nightie for the then-3-yr-old Bear in 2010. And all these years later? We’re still HUGE fans. Bear still...

The Bilibo Review – and why every home needs one

Well. The Bilibo. ‘Tis an odd thing. A shiny, plastic saucer bucket. Kind of. Thing. Whats it for? Well – pretty much whatever your child needs, actually. So far I have noticed that it can be; A carry vessel for cars and soldiers and dinosaurs, A super-fast ramp for cars, A spinny seat on shiny floors, A TV-watching seat, A tortoise shell, A step to reach high shelves, A helmet to make you an alien, A...

Probably the best girls skate shoes ever – Naturino Sneakers #NotJustForBoys

Have a picky girl dresser? Yes, me too. Particularly, it seems, when it comes to footwear. And this winter my girl took against trainers – she wanted the best girls skate shoes, pleasethankyou. When we started working with the amazingly lovely people at Naturino they asked if we’d like to review. In fact, they insisted – “no, really, you must. Our shoes are different. We promise.” Now my daughter Bear is...

Spotted! The Soft Toy Sloth. Trust me; you’ll know you need her once you see her…

I know, I know. Who on earth would think about a soft toy sloth. But when Mr LittleStuff showed me Orange Mama Sloth, I felt like I’d been missing out. Where has my Sloth been all my life? She’s the perfect bed-buddy, big enough to really cuddle. And such a fun addition to a shelf in the nursery! Her bright orange fur is very soft, and her face and ‘claws’ are made of gentle brown canvas. Her body is 12.5...

LOOK! Vampire Dr Marten’s for Halloween – Marceline Boots with a furry tongue!

How’s this for the most awesome pair of Halloween boots EVER? Regular readers will know that we’re a family of huge DM fans – I was a big fan back in the 80’s, and never ever grew out of it. And now my daughter shares my passion – which is frankly a Good Thing for her feet. Not only are DM’s tough enough to stand up to her tree-climbing-always-running ways, but they’re soft and comfortable...

Ragtales and the three mice. DON’T miss these.

To call these soft little chaps ‘rag mice’ is doing them a bit of a disservice, isn’t it? I mean these guys are CUTE. Properly, achingly, can’t-put-them-down swee-e-e-e-eet. A few months ago we told you all about Ragtales, Mr Darcy Bear, and how they’re producing some Very Special Toys Indeed. But we saved the best for later. Because much as I love Mr Darcy Bear in his gorgeous duffle coat? These three...
