Big Family Camping – the properly excellent Bahia 7 tent from Outwell
When LitteStuff tried out the Bahia 7 Tent. It used to be that the husband and I only ever had one question to answer for our holidays – where do we fancy taking the tent this time? We ALWAYS camped. And it made us happy to our bones. Once the children came along, the logistics got a bit harder. More than just a couple of duvets, cooking equipment and a few clothes bunged into a bag. But it wasn’t until I was pregnant with...
Coming alive, it’s coming alive… Horrible Science is coming alive…
Those clever clogs from the Birmingham Stage Company have done it again! The latest in the Horrible series stage shows has given me those exact words (“it’s coming alive, it’s coming alive…” to a maddening tune going round and round in my head, and just when I think I have shaken it off one of my lovely children pipes up and actually sings it and away we go again!

Review: The Petite Star Bubble. Yes – THAT Njoy stroller.
Have you seen it yet? The Petite Star Njoy Bubble is creating a bit of a storm in certain stroller circles… and we were dead excited to be one of the first in the UK to be asked to review the award winning stroller. Well, when I say ‘we’, I don’t actually mean me. Clearly my brood are too old for a stroller now, so I had to fight off offers asked one of the review team to do the honours for me....
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. Brilliant! First up were the 5yr old’s pair of Rocket glasses. I love Rocket – French manufacturer...
