Taking a look at GirlTalk Magazine | Review

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] Whenever I look at the magazine section at Tesco, I feel overwhelmed with toys, colors and unsure of what exactly I am looking at. Many magazines have toys attached to them, when they are aimed at children, and it’s always got me wondering if the magazines themselves are well worth it, beyond the toys? When it comes to GirlTalk, I was curious how Amelia and Robin would both react to the magazine itself, as young girls who don’t have the biggest grip on pop-culture.

KiwiCo Tinker Crate - Spin Art Machine | Review

KiwiCo Tinker Crate – Spin Art Machine | Review

Posted on by Dann Sullivan

[Ad- gifted product] In our continued mission to find the best subscription boxes for kids, we’ve given KiwiCo’s Tinker Crate a go, and the first box was fantastic. Subscription boxes have developed a lot over the years, I’m not sure exactly when they first became a thing – but I think most of us remember the magazine subscriptions that offered one book of a set of twenty, or a single dinosaur bone per issue. Somewhere along the line, somebody started a cool, activity subscription box, and the whole thing has blown up since.

We’ve dabbled with a lot of these subscription boxes over the last year, giving the kids some fun new ways to learn while homeschooling or in lockdown. We’ve shifted them too, trying to make sure that we don’t get too comfortable with any one in particular. KiwiCo’s Tinker Crate was the next one up for us, and – as it turns out – they’re really onto something.

My Summer Affirmations

My Summer Affirmations

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- collab] Summer is here, at least in the UK. It’s been warm, the beaches are filled with people, and we have all been itching to get out in the sun. After a year of not really seeing anyone, I’ve felt a lot of social anxiety to being suddenly around loads of humans. As the summer is full of opportunity, we have been focusing on getting out regardless and working through any sort of fear when it comes with getting out and about. If you are someone new to affirmations, they are short phrases or sayings that you can focus on, to motivate you and remind you of your goals.

Keeping dry with a Towel Robe from Halocline

Keeping dry with a Towel Robe from Halocline

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] Towel Robes might seem like a pretty silly thing to have – to be honest. When I had first heard of them, I thought they were a bit strange – a whole towel poncho that you can wear over your swimsuit or wet body to keep dry. That was until Robin asked for a ladybug themed towel robe from our local pool, and we said yes. It turns out, towel robes are really convenient, easy and are always a great size! Our local swimming pool does not have adult sized towel robes, but Halocline does.
