Costco is so well known in America, and seems to have just grown in popularity with haul culture and Tiktoks! As an American who has never been to the American Costco, I have always been curious if it would really live up to the hype in the United Kingdom. We’ve got a few friends that go to Costco regularly, but haven’t had the chance to go ourselves, until one evening Dann decided to look it up (possibly due to them selling my absolute favorite American fruit snacks), and realize he qualified for Trade Member due to his job. We then got Trade cards and decided to check out this massive shop. We’ve been going for a few months now, and often only pick up one or two things (along with those legendary free samples, which you can see me enjoying on Reels – yes we have samples in the United Kingdom), and have quickly picked up a bunch of favorites.

Tinkerer Odyssey Box – STEM Subscription!
[Ad- gifted product] Subscription boxes are a great way to have a regular routine or activity that feels new and refreshing each month. There are a bunch of different types of children’s subscription boxes, but having a STEM related box, with the aim of getting children interested in science, is always a good option! Robin was very excited to play with her Tinkerer Odyssey Box, Loopy Racers. This box had a launcher, a bunch of cars, and a ring of fire! Along with a booklet that had a comic about the project and a bunch of other suggestions for other activities that we could do.

Kreepy Katz – Cat head Plushies
[Ad- gifted products] Robin is a fan of anything plush, even if they are on the creepier side. I honestly didn’t think she’d be a fan of Kreepy Katz, but in her own words of “But they are funny cat heads!!” she seems to be a big fan of them. From the creators of Deddy Bears, comes Kreepy Katz – a sort of spooky, cat head themed plushies. There are three types in the current range; 30.5cm large plushie heads, 10cm plushie heads, and blind bag keychain heads.



The Veggie Cookbook – Pickled Cucumber and Tofu Glass Noodle Salad Recipe
[Ad- gifted product] We are huge fans of Higgidy and have tried out a bunch of their foods previously, so when they sent us The Veggie Cookbook, we were pretty excited to see what foods they had instore for us. This cookbook’s goal is to get people to experiment more with veggies and cook with more veggies. These meals are all vegetarian, but some play more as side dishes and others could easily have your swapping out tofu for chicken, for example. It’s a really flexible book that has a bunch of staples, bigger vegetable meals, and more.

HeyDoodle Into the Wild Mat – Coloring!
[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to crafting and drawing, Robin is always looking to do more of it! Though she isn’t the perfect age range for the HeyDoodle mats, I asked them about it and she really wanted to try one out. These silicon mats come with their own set of markers, allowing children to draw and color, then allowing parents to wipe them away so that they can try again.
