[Ad- gifted product] When I was a kid, I had a Bop-it that I carried around with me, whenever I went somewhere that I might need a bit of entertainment. We have had Bop-It’s at home, and our girls have really enjoyed the little hand-held gaming experience. When we heard about FliplSide, which is way less of an awkward shape, and sort of reminds me of Simon Says.
[Ad- gifted products] The springtime in the United Kingdom is a mix of sunny days and rainy days, seemingly at random. We are a big adventure family, so as soon as parks make sense to go too, we do spend a lot of time outdoors. With that said, whenever it rains, we do have times indoors. Robin, the most adventurous of us, is one that is hard to entertain when it comes to sticking inside. Unlike her older siblings, she isn’t one to sit in front of the Xbox or a computer for very long, so we tend to have a few toys on hand for her to play around with! Wicked Uncle has so many great options, sorted by age, but here are two toys we love to play with on rainy days!
[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. Both of these characters are extremely cool, with the Turbo Ice being based on an ice-cream motorcycle and the Pizzacopter being based on a pizza helicopter!
