Spotted! Stripy Blankets from the Stripy Co.
What is it about stripes? And blankets? Combine the two with a gorgeously fresh made-of-trees-and-wind-and-sunshine website, and it’s hard to resist these beautiful beautiful bed blankets from the Stripy Company. The thing with blankets is that they last and last… this is one children’s item that will easily outgrow the nursery and still be loved and more importantly used in 20 years time. Go on, we dare you to...
Silver Cross Classic Sleepover Pram – What WE Say…
The Silver Cross Sleepover is a lot of pram for a fair amount of money. For the first few months of Joe’s life, we used it as an alternative to a crib (and an alternative to his hammock, which sometimes – for no apparent reason – he wouldn’t settle in). We used it with the rocking stand, but didn’t actually bother with the rocker (you can set it to static) because the rocking motion is minimal and made a...
Freya Design Boxes Review
Just gorgeous. That’s what we say about Freya Design wooden keepsake boxes. We were asked to look at the baby trinket gift boxes; three little boxes (in blue or pink flavours) for keeping baby’s name braclet, first curl and first tooth. These boxes are utterly delightful and very well made (tiny magnetic catches on the lid of each box). If you are looking for a simply gorgeous gift to celebrate the arrival of a new baby...
Cuskiboo Review

When I was asked to trial the Cuskiboo I knew it would be an easy task as I am already a great fan of Cuski, as is my 18 month old son. He always finds his Cuski when he is tired (not that Cuski is ever too far away!) and...
TidyBooks Bookcase review
When I first looked at the Tidy Books bookcase on their website I was a tad hesitant, thinking it would be far too big and bulky and wondered if it really be any better than a normal bookcase. When it arrived I was quite surprised (hey, that rhymes!) at how un-bulky it was. Assembly was easy and the instructions were clear. I was impressed with how many fixings have been used because you are going to want this bookcase to be secure...
The TipTop Cream of Big Wipe Off Bibs
Any experienced parent will know that all bibs are not created equal. There are many different sizes and shapes, and many different uses. But the fundamentals remain the same. They need to actually work – they need to stop your toddler dribbling their spaghetti hoops down the front of their new cream jumper. The Big Wipe Off Bib is so perfectly named. In essence it is exactly what it says – Very very big, and with a heavy...
