Samsonite Blossom Slouch Changing Bag Review
Ok. I hate to keep banging on about it, but it’s six years since my last baby… six years ago the only changing bags around were either a black shoulder bag or rucksack, or a shoulder bag in various hideous baby prints such as teddies or jungle animals. I’m sure some women are happy to tote these around on themselves but I’m not one of them. Then along came baby number 3 and wow, in the intervening six years a changing bag...
Silver Cross Buggy Organiser review
This is a new offering from Silver Cross, and is the step past the big ole changing bag. There comes a point when you have a running around toddler who is almost out of nappies and your baby-bag needs change. No longer do you need a bag that comes with 6,432 pockets and a kitchen sink as standard. But you do often need more a little more than a grown up’s handbag (remember them? I have fond hazy memories of half-empty bags and...
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...
Calin Bleu wrap review
The Calin Bleu micro fleece sling was very much anticipated as we had used a Tomy Safari carrier when Nathan (my first born) was small and liked the ease of not having to take the pram everywhere, so I was intrigued to see what the difference would be. When it arrived and I opened it I was initially very daunted as it is one massive piece of material and I couldn’t even imagine how to go about using it. The...
Irrepressibly Happy Spotty Otter Wellies
Wellies are one of those things I’ve never really given much thought too, to be honest. Small children love puddles – therefore they have to have wellies. It’s not hard. And all wellies are pretty much the same, are they not? Well, actually, I am now educated to understand that no, they are not. I mean, yes, in basic terms, all wellies keep your feet dry. But. Until I got these Spotty Otter wellies for Ella, I never really loved a...
Ju-Ju-Be BeTween Bag Review Ready for You!
Well, I’ve had a few baby change bags over the years. Some good, some not-so-good. But I have to say that the BeTween by Ju-Ju-Be is pretty much everything I’ve ever wanted in a change bag. First off, it’s a Tardis. Honestly. There’s a small bit of fluttery magic that goes on in the hyper-second of time between you opening the bag and you looking inside. Because from the outside, this bag really isn’t all that big. Certainly small...
