[Ad- gifted product] Our family isn’t strangers to a spread. We love to try jams, spreads, and even edible slimes on our desserts and on our pancakes. When we heard that Rowse, the honey brand, had released a new cocoa spread, we were curious as to how it would be. Rowse ChocoBee is a cocoa and honey spread that just has those two ingredients – cocoa and honey. And that’s it. There is no additives, no palm oil, no nothing. Just natural honey and UTZ-certified, sustainably grown cocoa. With such a simple recipe, we wondered how it would taste.

When we were out in Tower Bridge, we came across the Bird & Tea Co. They had a bunch of different, unique flavors that are every-changing as their menu grows and changes. We picked two flavors of their loose leaf tea: Key Like Pie and Watermelon Splash. It’s been a while since we have been out in Tower Bridge, but I wanted to share our experiences with these unique teas! Our household isn’t a hugely into traditional tea, but we love having little tea parties with small snacks and various fruity teas!

We always try to subscribe to new month boxes, switching them out when things get a bit boring with one box or when interests change. Previously, we have done nature boxes for Robin, but with her growing interest in reading (and the constant demand for new books in her reading level) we decided to take a look into what reading-related boxes where out there. After checking over lots of them, we settled with The Bear Can Read, in the Koala section for her age.

Following England’s curriculum, each month this box delivers a bunch of different reading material – three books, a few flashcards, six worksheets on three different sounds, a sticker reading chart, and some little treats. The main perk from this box, for our house, is the books that come with it. These books focus around the sounds and letter of the month, which can really help with confidence, as they are learning these sounds and letters right before reading them.

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to trying out new snacks, we are always itching to get our hands on anything savory and crunchy! Pulsitos have a range of healthy, vegan, gluten free grab and go snacks, that even feature plastic free packing – great for those who want to be conscientious about our planet. We got the chance to try out three flavors of Pulsitos – Lightly Salted, Sweet Chili and Mediterranean Herbs. These snacks are high in protein as well, great for an energy boost midday.

Lightly Salted Pulsitos

The lightly salted pulsitos are the most ‘default’ of the flavors. The creators, Laura and Sean actually ate similar snacks in Barcelona, where they came up with the idea to create this snack company. These are broad beans, which are slated and baked off to create a crispy and crunchy texture. Traditionally, they are often served lightly salted, so this made for a good introduction into broad bean snacks – as we have previously tried a lot of fava bean based snacks – as they taste quite crunchy and natural.
