Once children start getting older and hitting the tween years, it can be harder to find the right toys and games to keep them engaged. We were sent the Robomaker set from Clementoni which is recommended for age 10+ and it is a brilliant project to keep older kids busy and entertained, and even learning […]
We’ve been working with the Blogger Board Game Club from Asmodee Games to review a selection of games, and the one which I had been most excited to try out is Pandemic. Pandemic is a game that’s suitable for ages 8 and up, but my husband and I decided to play it by ourselves which […]
We’ve joined together with the Blogger Board Game Club and Asmodee UK to test out three fun family games. The first I’m sharing with you is Cobra Paw, a quick paced tile snatching game that is really simple and easy to grasp so you can get playing straight away or fit in a game when […]
There’s something about Peppa Pig that just grabs toddler’s attention. Without N even having seen Peppa on TV, she quickly managed to develop a real interest in the little pink pig just from some of the Peppa Pig toys and books she’d come across – so much so that her first sentence was “Where Peppa […]
For the littlest fans of the Teletubbies, there is a brand new Nursery range available with some lovely soft sensory toys. Our toddler N loves the show and is always excited to see anything with Teletubbies on it, so what did she think of the plush stackable Po toy from Character Options?

Over the summer holidays, we went along to Kidzania in Westfield to find out more about the new LeapStart 3D. The LeapStart 3D is an exciting […]
The smART Sketcher Projector from Character is a brilliant toy for kids who love to draw. As soon as I saw it, I couldn’t wait to try it out and the boys had the same reaction. It is really easy to set up, easy to use, and works seamlessly with the app allowing you to […]
We’ve been enjoying playing with Gravitrax this summer, a new STEM toy from Ravensburger. Gravitrax allows you to create different tracks, experimenting with gravity, magnetism, and kinetic energy. You can read our review of the starter packs here but we’ve also been trying out some of the expansion packs, which you can buy to help […]
Puzzles are one of my favourite activities for quiet time with children, so I had been looking forward to starting more puzzles with N now that she is getting bigger. At one and a half, she is coming out of the baby stage and definitely a proper toddler. Her concentration span is getting a bit […]
i-TOPs are a new and addictive spinning top toy from Character that have been an instant hit with my kids, and are perfect for taking on the go. They are ideal for keeping hands busy, and have a wide appeal for all ages. There are six colours available, and we were sent three different colours […]
