Glossybox Review. All that glitters…
The idea behind Glossybox is to help you stay up to date with current trends in the beauty market, and discover new niche brands. It is £10 a month to join (plus £2.95 P&P), and every month, GLOSSYBOX delivers a mix of 5 product miniatures for you to test at home. It looks and sounds fabtastic – I have No Clue about the latest brands, tending to stick to my tried-and-tested old favourites, or occasionally splashing out on...
Keris does the i’coo pluto review
I resisted this buggy for quite a while. I was using a backward facing buggy and loved being able to chat to Joe and keep an eye on him whenever he was eating (he does a lot of buggy-based snacking), but then Joe started kneeling up and looking forward over the back of the buggy and so I realised it was time. The first time we used the Pluto, I didn’t like it. It felt flimsy to me, I wasn’t sure if I’d managed to put...
The Dodo Acad-Pad
Looking for a diary for the start of term? Look no further! In it’s own inimitable Dodo Style, the Acad-Pad is just… ace. Bags and bags of organisation at your fingertips – you’ll not miss a deadline again. Probably. No, seriously, I LOVE this pad. Every time I think “actually, it’d be really handy if it…” – it already does. Tear off corners so you can find where you are fast,...
Travelling with Children (Book review, not horror story. Honest).

And then when you actually set off… Catherine Cooper’s book – Travelling With Children: A Parent’s Guide – is an entertaining and practical guide to, well, travelling with children. The book will help you...
Sigg Bottles. Just a Brilliant childs Flask.
We LOVE Sigg bottles. And when I say ‘we’, I don’t just mean the grown ups round here. No, the four smaller-but-in-charge-really people LOVE Sigg bottles. We started off with this uber-cute little 0.3l bottle for Pink to take to pre-school. She LOVED it, and all the mums were oooh-ing at it in the crate. But as she headed towards proper school we found it was just too small to last all day for her, so now she has the...
Camp Bestival. Oh how we do love thee.
We couldn’t make Camp Bestival this year – so we sent our intrepid roving reporter WitWitWoo. Who quite frankly did a better job than we would have done. She camped and EVERYTHING. This is her account of her first ever festival – grab a coffee before you start, you may be here some time… I have officially made it back from my first ever camping trip in one piece. Quite frankly, I surprised even myself...
