I was flicking through the January issue of Living Etc and as soon as I spotted this electric blue pine (yes pine but don’t panic) toddler bed in their ‘Stylish Kids Rooms’ marked as a chiconomy buy, I was like ‘Hmm, where’s that from? What? Argos?’ Yep! If this were in its native pine it [...]

Explain pregnancy to your child with EQD’s Pregnancy Layer Puzzle

I always knew when Kate expanded the toy range at BG favourite The Hedgepig, that she’d get some cool stuff in! Whilst the bambino was too young to even grasp what was really happening when I read There’s a House Inside My Mummy, an older toddler will have fun and get the lowdown on what’s [...]

BabaBing Lobo Reclining Bouncer

I took one look at BabaBing’s Lobo reclining bouncer and felt a surge of lust followed by a surge of disappointment that the baby’s already 6 months old and sitting up. Sigh… The Lobo reclining bouncer is definitely one of those baby items that you’d be proud to leave out even when it’s not in [...]

Countdown to Baby 2: End of the Madness Road (Almost)

So it’s the final week and the next time I waffle on about my shenanigans with ‘baby 2′, they will be out. I can hardly believe it! Actually, that’s a lie. I catch sight of myself in the mirror sometimes and do a double take, which I suppose is better than when the bambino cracks [...]
