[Ad- gifted product] Kai has started his first year at Secondary School, which is always a big step in a child’s life. Secondary school comes with more freedom, a completely different school, and a lot more hanging out with friends it seems! Though he isn’t quite a teenager yet, he’s not at the age where he has a mobile phone, but we wanted to be able to communicate with Kai when he gets out of school and is over at friends home – as well as ensure he can communicate with us in case he needs us. That’s where the IMOO Smart Watch comes in. It’s a great device for those who aren’t quite ready for the freedom of a mobile but still might want to communicate and have a way to talk to friends and family. This watch provides quite a bit of peace of mind when it comes to ensuring your child can contact you and knowing where your child is, in case of an emergency.

In July, Amelia got probably her favorite Little Cooks Co Baking box to date! This box is a monthly subscription box which encourages cooking and baking in the kitchen with your little one – creating a sweet and a savory recipe, using lots of ingredients that are packed right in the box, as well as a few fresh ingredients you need to provide yourself. This month’s box included a delicious raspberry cake, some kale chips, and a craft that Amelia really enjoyed – as well as some seeds and some conversation cards (though we don’t really use these at our household).

[Ad- gifted product] Autumn is just around the corner and beyond that is wintertime, so it’s finally time to pick out new jackets and warmer clothing, in preparation for the change in weather. England is particularly fickle with weather changing from sunny to rainy to just chilly all in one day, depending on the weather for that day. Between school runs, back to school times, and trying to get something suitable for all three children, it felt easier to grab some jackets online, with Dare2B, a website full of high quality clothing and jackets for children and adults alike.

Another month, another cool box from KiwiCo. This time, for our fourth KiwiCo Tinker Crate, Kai and I worked together to build an absolutely amazing Glowing Pendulum. It’s a far cry from the previous boxes, which had us build Spin Art Machines, Walking Robots as well as a functional Crane and Pulley, but the clever application of science to create a fun plaything carries through. Also included were a few challenges and related facts through the TinkerZine that comes with each box.
