The Pushchair Track: Mamas & Papas Urbo

September 5, 2011 by · 4 Comments 

A few months ago Mamas & Papas paid for me to attend a blogging event and as I was taking Betsy along with me they sent her an Urbo to ride around in. You know I don’t class myself as much of a pram lover yet I was quite smitten by the Urbo. The Urbo [...]

Natalie writes… I tell you, Mamas and Papas have really upped their game this season as for once they have lots of things I like! I think their Made with Love Snugglerug Cow is really gorgeous and I’d almost be tempted to buy it as a rug for the bambino’s room but I am still [...]

Gingerbread Striped Knitted Blanket

October 15, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

Kat writes… When I was shopping for ToddlerGeek’s arrival two years ago I thought of Mamas and Papas as a bland, beige and neutral store. Times have changed and the more I look, the funkier their design and colours. This Striped Knitted Blanket is a prime example of the new vibrant colour schemes. Contrasting colours [...]

October 6, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

Natalie writes… Mamas and Papas have got some pretty good reductions on at the moment with a surprising 30% off a number of pushchairs in their offering including the award winning Skate which I wrote about several months ago here on BG. It’s a travel system (it comes with adaptors to use it with the [...]

Mamas and Papas Loop Highchair available to pre-order

August 19, 2008 by · 1 Comment 

Natalie writes… A while back I wrote about the Mamas and Papas Loop Highchair, a new, souped up offering from them that’s clearly trying to make a play for the high end highchair market predominantly occupied by the Nano Bloom and the Mozzee Nest. I felt excited because I would have laid bets that it [...]

Charlie Caterpillar Rocking Animal

Brenda writes… I am on the look out for a rocker for my godson so forgive me for checking them out with you. This one by Mamas and Papas is a more commercially styled one but it’s not badly priced as rocking ‘horses’ go. Charlie Caterpillar is brightly coloured and softly padded, with rattles and [...]

Coming soon: Mamas and Papas Loop Highchair

July 25, 2008 by · 1 Comment 

Natalie writes… Sometimes I wonder if retailers read my mind because yesterday when I was in Mamas and Papas, I felt for the most part underwhelmed. Then I popped onto their website and discovered that as if sensing that parents don’t want lots of teddies and creams and cutesville, and instead might like the wow [...]

Yellow Mamas and Papas Trainers

July 25, 2008 by · Leave a Comment 

Natalie writes… Normally I’m not particularly wowed by Mamas and Papas clothing but they’ve got my attention with these fab yellow trainers. They are seriously superfly! They’re a bit vague about what the uppers are made from (‘textile uppers’) but they are lined for extra padding and cosiness factor. They have them from birth to [...]

Mamas and Papas Skate Pushchair

March 4, 2008 by · 6 Comments 

I love the ‘Skate’. Buying a new pushchair is a challenging experience which you end up expending a huge amount of mental energy on as you try to balance buying something practical with something desirable that you love. The Mamas and Papas Skate has integrated the pram and seat into one space saving unit and [...]

Product review: Mamas and Papas Nipi Lightweight Stroller

January 25, 2008 by · 3 Comments 

A couple of months ago, we went back to America and we decided to bite the bullet and buy a lightweight stroller/pushchair that you could just chuck in the car and move around easily. I had been warned about ending up buying two pushchairs, something apparently that regularly occurs when you buy these big three [...]

Squeaka Duck Potty

May 6, 2007 by · Leave a Comment 

I’m a big Mamas and Papas fan as they do have very chic Italian products for when you want something that little bit different, even when it’s a basic item. I was given this potty at my baby shower recently and I fell in love with it instantly! It’s an ergonomically designed potty with a [...]
