Stretch Star Wars – Fun to fidget and stretch!

[Ad- gifted products] Our house hold has a lot of fidget toys that are meant to feel fun to play around with. It’s just something that seems to have gained more popularity as time has gone by.

MEL Science – Lenses | Review

[Ad- gifted product] We’re starting to get to those Winter days where it looks nice and sunny outside, but the temperature is still bitingly cold. This definitely limits the number of places that you can get out and about, which in turn gives another brilliant opportunity to dive into a science kit. We’re still subscribed to the MEL Science Physics range, and the Lenses box had recently came through the mail, so we gave it a go.
