Finding the best Children’s Autumn Jacket with Dare2B

[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.

KiwiCo Tinker Crate – Glowing Pendulum | Review

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.

Bring the movie to life with PAW Patrol The Movie: Adventure City Calls

[Ad- gifted product] Our household is full of gamers. With both Dann and I working full time in the video game industry, we tend to play a lot of games together.

One of her favorites are PAW Patrol – probably due to loving the Pups and their TV show. Previously, we took a look at PAW Patrol: Might Pups, which Robin enjoyed, but with the new movie out, there of course, is a new game called PAW Patrol The Movie: Adventure City Calls.

Rooster’s Roll Top Welded Dry Bag is perfect for bringing wet clothing home

[Ad- gifted product] If you follow Dann or I on Instagram or Twitter, you will know we basically live in the water. We go to our local swimming pool at least once a week and venture further to the ocean nearby often, taking loads of trips. We have basically got going to the swimming pool or beach down to a science – complete with different fun toys for the children, changes of clothing, and towel robes to keep people dry. However, one thing we did struggle with until recently was backpacks that held all of our wet and often sandy water supplies on the way back.

Harley Hound and Red Spotted Ned | Children’s book review

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to childrens books, our household collects them! Every single night before bed, one of the three children pick out a story book and we all read together. Reading is a key part of our day, and we always are on the look out for new books to add to our collection, so we were delighted to hear about the two new books by Chris Jones, called Harley Hound and Red Spotted Ned. These two children’s books are slightly different from the books we have had in the past in our collection, which really stands out to us! But first, let’s talk a bit about the author.
