My Friend Peppa Pig – Children’s Video Game | Review

Posted on November 5, 2021August 27, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] It is no secret that we are big fans of video games in our household. As both Dann and I work in video games as apart of our day job, we always have quite a few games and game systems dotted around our home. Robin, due to her age, doesn’t have that many video games in our household as there just simply isn’t that many made for her – but when she does find one she likes, she can rarely put it down! My Friend Peppa Pig is a new addition to the collection!

5 Unique Chocolate Advent Calendars for 2021

Posted on November 4, 2021November 14, 2024 by Jupiter

Updated November 4th, 2021. *AD – some items in this review was gifted to our household for this post. All opinions, as always, are our own.

When it comes to Advent Calendars, the classic is something filled with chocolate. As not the biggest fan of chocolate, I often spend some time trying to find advent calendars that contain different fillings, however, there are a bunch of really awesome, unique advent calendars that caught my eye! If you are a chocolate lover looking for something new, these are the calendars for you.

Mozart Marzipan Advent Calendar

The Mozart chocolate and marzipan advent calendar is one that really caught Dann’s eye! This calendar has an assortment of three different German candies, each with chocolate and marzipan. There are three mainc hocolates – Echte Reber Mozart-Kugeln, Mozart Herz’l, and Mozart Medaillon – which all taste amazing! This calendar does contain nuts, but is great for those who are a bit more sophisticated in the chocolates they eat and those who do love a bit of marzipan.

A Day Out at Belvoir Castle

Posted on November 3, 2021January 30, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] Dann is a massive fan of historical sites and of castles, so when we went out to the Engine Yard, to explore their new buildings shops and area, we then hopped over to Belvoir Castle – just across the road – to have a look at the grounds and inside. This castle was up a hill – a little walk from the car park, so we made our way there after lunch, excited to take a look at the grounds and then inside castle. What we didn’t realize was just how large the grounds themselves are.

Ordering a Letter from Santa, from the Lapland Mailroom

Posted on November 2, 2021August 27, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] Christmas is such a magical time of year! There is always a big feeling of magic in the air, from the moment snow starts to fall from the sky to the first mention of Santa Claus. Lapland has the option to get a letter from Santa mailed to your home, which can really make the concept of Santa more magical and realistic to those who are young and old.

Lapland offers four different personalised letters from Santa (or Father Christmas, if you choose to call him that!) These letters are all a bit different, one of them being designed for a baby’s first ever Christmas and the other three being different variations of a letter from Santa, so that you can get one for each of your multiple children, yet they all won’t be exactly the same. All of these letters are upbeat and cheerful, reminding your child that Christmas is right around the corner, one thanking them for sending a letter to Santa before now, and all of them talking about your child being on the nice list this year.

We Completed Blogtober 2021!

Posted on October 31, 2021November 1, 2021 by Jupiter

With the end of Blogtober this year, I feel the end of a lot of pressure! I am so glad we took part – and look forward to Blogmas, but finding ourselves creating a post every other day about Halloween, while balancing the world opening up and work, has been a challenge as always. I really enjoyed Blogtober this year, though next year I hope to include more crafts and recipes. It was an interesting October, as the world had just started opening back up, and with a few different events to attend, a bunch of new pumpkin patches, and a few parties / weddings / other family occasions, the month was jam packed!
