This month we were lucky enough to be sent some lovely products from stonegift.com. The first is an amazing giant colouring poster from OMY Design and Play. These could be hung on the wall or used as tablecloths and will keep the little people entertained for hours at a time. We were sent the Cosmos design which is covered in really cute robots, spaceships, planets and aliens. I have to be honest and state that I haven't let the kids loose on it yet as it is just so cute and their colouring skills are not quite ready for this yet so I am saving it. It is just too ...
Prize Draw: Win A Six Month Supply Of Ambrosia Mini Pots
We were recently asked to try out a couple of new desserts from Ambrosia, of the truly yummy custard fame, but this time aimed at the littlies. We were sent both Ambrosia Custard and Ambrosia Rice Pudding mini pots and we set about testing them with Little Miss. And me. I have to be honest and the rice pudding didn't go down too well. (At least with Little Miss. Mr B couldn't get enough of it.) However, we are at the early weaning stage of only just introducing lumps and I think perhaps it was the wrong time to try something of this texture. The custard was another matter altogether. ...
Prize Draw: Win a Special Father’s Day Gift From My 1st Years
With Father's Day on the horizon, (Sunday June 15th folks.) I am hosting a giveaway with something for the Dads for a change. My 1st Years have a range of personalised gifts for Dad and I chose the following for Mr B. For as long as I have known him Mr B has never worn a shirt without cufflinks, has always worn a watch and has never used a wallet but always a money clip for his notes and bank cards. His current one is in rather a shabby state. This silver plated money clip is available at My 1st years for £18 and can be engraved with up to 16 characters at no extra cost and is the ...
WIN a FlatBox-LunchBox from The Nicest Stuff
We were recently sent the FlatBox LunchBox to try out from The Nicest Stuff. Now, as my regular readers will know, I can be massively a little OCD sometimes about cleanliness, especially when it comes to food hygiene. My poor son now has a fear of finger-painting purely due to my obsessive hand-wiping in the weaning days. So, when this arrived I was more than a little delighted. This is no ordinary lunchbox. Is there anything worse than taking out your lovingly prepared lunch, only to have to try and avoid any of it touching the dirty, sticky ...
Win An Awesome Dino Adventure Toy Set From WOW Toys
When WOW recently asked me if The Boy and I wished to review one of their toys I must confess that I had not heard of them before. After just two minutes browsing their website though I could not accept fast enough. The designs on show were super cute and their major focus is that none of their toys require any batteries. Yep, NO BATTERIES. If you have kids of your own I am sure you will understand the huge wave of relief those two simple words can create. Loving all-things-dinosaur at Casa B we could not resist the Dino-Adventure set and eagerly awaited it's arrival. However, upon ...
Prize Draw: Win A Peter Rabbit Nursery Bundle
I have such fond memories of reading the Beatrix Potter stories as a child. Those little white books were some of my favourites and the illustrations just beautiful. The boy is now getting to an age where I think he will enjoy them too and I can't wait to start reading them with him. I am hoping that Little Miss will love them too. I am delighted that this month, to coincide with Rainbow Designs launch of their new Peter Rabbit range, I am giving away a Peter Rabbit Nursery Bundle to one lucky Mum of One reader. These will also be available to purchase from John Lewis and independent ...
Prize Draw: Win Three Gorgeous Bibs From Funky Giraffe
Little Miss E was recently sent a truly fantastic selection of bandana-style dribble bibs from Funky Giraffe. We used these types of bibs endlessly when W was smaller but, I must confess, his were nowhere near as cool as these! Funky Giraffe was started by Yasmin Drury, whose background in fashion is immediately apparent in the cool designs, during her maternity leave. Not only has great attention been paid to style but also to comfort and practicality. The back of these bibs are lined with fleece which helps to keep even the most proficient dribblers dry. They fit comfortably ...

This month we love…plus Babar giveaway
We have been a little bit spoilt again this month with some lovely items to review. First is this lovely framed canvas from Snapbox UK. This really does stand out from other canvas prints as it is encased within a beautiful wood frame with a black enamel finish. It can therefore be displayed free-standing, unusual for a canvas, but also comes with a suitable hook for wall-hanging if desired. The Snapbox website could not have been easier to use and you can even upload your photos straight from your mobile. There are a range of effects to choose from including both black and white ...
Prize Draw: Win A Complete Home Cleaning Kit From Breathease
I was lucky enough to recently be sent some samples of the wonderful product range from Breathease. As my regular readers will have gathered I can often display some obsessive-compulsive type behaviour when it comes to cleaning. Let me loose in the cleaning products aisle of the supermarket and it is like all my Christmas' come at once. I even asked for a steam mop for Valentine's day. Sad, I know, but true. Anyhow, I was delighted to try out this particular line of products as they are perfect for my household in more ways than one. Mr B suffers with quite bad allergies and his skin ...
