Uh Oh Milo! The Impolite Imps – Children’s story book | Review

Posted on March 13, 2020August 27, 2024 by Dann Sullivan

[Ad- gifted product] Reading story books before bed is something we’ve made a habit of in our household. With that in mind, we have been finding more and more books with positive messages to read to the children. When Uh Oh Milo! The Impolite Imps arrived, we were excited to have a new and quite funny book on our shelf. This story book aims to start a discussion about manners in younger children and about influence from other people in slightly older children.

The Botanist – Unique Cocktails | Review

Posted on March 9, 2020August 27, 2024 by Jupiter and Dann

[Ad- gifted experience] While in Reading, we ended up at the bar of The Botanist, through a slight mix up. Normally, a mix up is never the best situation, but as it happens, The Botanist is a wonderful venue with very unique and tasty drinks, which we were very excited to try. After our Day Out in London Bridge, finding ourselves with a couple of rounds of interesting drinks to taste sounded like a surprisingly great way to end our day.

We took the time to try a handful of the most unique and interesting cocktails on the menu and Dann tried a beer type he had not had before. These cocktails not only tasted delicious but also came in a variety of strange and intriguing glasses! We drank our drinks in rounds, so see the captions of pictures to know what drink goes with what name.

Brunch at The King’s Head | Review

Posted on February 28, 2020August 27, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] The King’s Head in Billericay, Essex have refurbished the interior and exterior, as well as extended their menu to include a very lovely brunch menu! The interior is stunning – beautifully presented tables, couches, a well-presented bar. All of the bar staff seemed really knowledgeable about the menu – and we were told after that they actually had a large menu tasting when it came to this brunch, so that they knew everything on this new menu. The look is pretty modern now, with a bright feel that you don’t often find inside pubs. The King’s Head felt modern and casual, and the dining experience was wonderful as well.

£50 Toy Haul from PoundToy | Review

Posted on February 24, 2020August 27, 2024 by Dann Sullivan

[Ad- gifted products] Our household is always on the lookout for toys, especially toy kits and items that will keep the three kids entertained. With the half term coming up, PoundToy reaching out with their very affordable toys seemed like a really good fit. Pound Toy is an online retailer that sells loads and loads of children’s toys at extremely affordable prices. They have some name brands, but mainly loads of cheaper off-brands that work pretty well. A few of their toys are free ad-ons (one per order) and there are toys that come in at £0.01, which can be added to an order, but do have a limit depending on what it is.

Meet Henry Heartbeat & Meet Henrietta Heartbeat – Children’s story book | Review

Posted on February 14, 2020August 27, 2024 by Dann Sullivan

[Ad- gifted product] We really like stories before bedtime in our house as they are a great way to wind down and enjoy just a little bit more family time. Books that have a very positive message are always a plus when it comes to picking what to read before bed. When we were offered the books Meet Henry Heartbeat and Meet Henrietta Heartbeat, we were pretty excited to see what these two new characters had to offer.

Both of these books serve as introductions into the lives of these two characters, defining who they are and what they like. They are short stories that can be read easily by younger children or can make for a quick bedtime store being read out loud to children. Both contain fun and simple rhythms and cute pictures to go along with each page. When reading these books, the children pointed out some of their family members and friends who had shown the same traits, recognising kindness in their own lives.
