Celebrating Disney’s 100th Anniversary with their New Stuffed Toys!

[Ad- gifted products] Disney has been a name in everyone’s household, for so long! Long enough that we can actually put them into years – 100 years to be exact. Disney are celebrating this occasion with their new D100 Plush Collection, which reflects on the heritage of Disney and focuses on some of their older titles.

My youngest memory of Disney happens to be around Winnie the Pooh. When I was very young, I had a cassette player and a Winnie the Pooh cassette which told a story about Winnie the Pooh and on the flip side had a story about a soldier who found Winnie the Pooh, a black bear, and kept her as a sort of army pet.

Tom Gates: Happy to Help (eventually) new book and clothing line

[Ad- gifted product] World Book Day is right around the corner, so it’s a great time to get your child into reading and find new books for them to read! Robin always gleefully announces her favourite hobby is reading, so getting her new books is something we are constantly doing. As she is six turning seven this year, she is in a weird place where she wants to read chapter books, but if they don’t have any sort of drawings, she gets bored with them quickly! The series of Tom Gates books are perfect for her, as they have little drawings on each page, funny fonts, and are just very engaging!

Flying high fun with ZipLinx

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to tweens and teens, they aren’t always the easiest to impress with toys. Kai is at the age where he doesn’t engage much with any sort of physical toy and prefers his computer. When I was his age, I was really into dominoes and ZipLinx reminds me of a more intense version of dominoes! ZipLinx are a bunch of clips that you slot together, then use a launcher to cause them to fly up into the air, exploding everywhere.

Trying Japan Centre Tofu Burgers

[Ad- gifted product] Burgers feel like one of those things that people are always trying to create vegan versions of. I guess its because burgers are such a known food – so comforting and recognizable, so having something with burger in it’s name is more relatable even for those who aren’t completely meat free. Japan Centre has released a range of different Tofu Burgers, which are like tofu patties with a bunch of different flavours or vegetables added into them. We got our hands on three of the varieties to try out and see if we enjoy them!
