[Ad- gifted product] When I was a child, I have a distinct memory of saving up money to get my own set of BloPens, from a TV infomercial. I wasn’t actually 18 years or older, so couldn’t purchase it in the end – but now I can live vicariously through our children, who have had a couple of different BloPens sets in their lives! Currently, Robin and Amelia have been enjoying the BloPens Fantasy Set.

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to imagination and building toys, there are quite a few different ones out there. Our entire house is obsessed with Lego, with each of our children having their own boxes and shelves to display their creations. With that in mind, when I saw Plus-Plus, I knew that everyone would really enjoy these building shapes, and that the compact size of them meant that we could actually take them on adventures and on holiday!
[Ad- gifted products] SuperThings is a series of toys that take everyday objects and turn them into characters! There are two new toys; the SuperThings Turbo Ice and the SuperThings Pizzacopter, which have been Robin and Amelia’s first look into the toy series.

[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.
