Throwing the Best Party with Moonpig

[Ad- gifted experience] Moonpig ran a virtual event earlier this month that was all around throwing the best birthday party possible – a skill that everyone should need to have at one point in their lives, at least. This event showcased Moonpig’s mobile app for ordering gifts, cards, balloons, and flowers as well as making the best cocktails and flower arranging the flowers we then got. This masterclass of three different aspects of throwing a party made for a fun and interesting virtual event that showcased a lot!

Mysteries in Time – Kid’s Subscription Box | Review

[Ad- gifted product] This month we tried out something new with the Mysteries in Time monthly history subscription box which, as you can imagine by the name, is a great tool when it comes to history for kids. It’s a box aimed at 7-11-year-olds, which two of my kids qualify under, and as the first month was on Ancient Egypt it seemed like a perfect fit for Kai, who had recently studied it as one of his half-term topics for school. I’m a bit of a history buff myself, and he had really enjoyed the recent topic work, so it seemed like a perfect. As with any box, or any study package, there definitely needs to be a willingness to learn, or a general sense of excitement around the topic.

Firstly, the box is really well designed (we got the bumper box for this review). It’s a rectangular cardboard box which closes and seals up quite tightly. It’s not always common for these things to feel like they are designed with longevity in mind, but the box is well constructed and has survived the cat sitting on it, and it being dropped once, with no wear and tear.

The Selfie Bag from Cotton Bag Co | Review

[Ad- gifted product] It’s a fact that I take loads and loads of selfies – many of which you can find on Twitter or Instagram. I really enjoy taking pictures of myself and playing around with lighting, so when Cotton Bag Co released The Selfie Bag, which is a bag that is designed for people who enjoy taking selfies and manipulating light. The bag itself is a canvas bag that’s quite thick – not flimsy at all, and comes in two styles; natural or black and gold. I’ve been into the black and gold theme for quite some time, themeing my work area around black and gold, so that’s the bag I picked.

Happy Confident Me Journal | Review

[Ad- gifted product] In the last few weeks the world has sort of taken a weird turn. With schools shutting down and people in a panic, this journal has come at a very good time. The Happy Confident Company has released journals aimed at children to promote mindfulness and help with essential life skills. Specifically, we got the Happy Confident Me Journal. This beautiful journal is chock full of different questions and pages, meant to be used daily to keep things interesting and engaging.

The Happy Confident Me Journal has a little bee friend that walks children through the purpose of the journal and helps guide them through various pages and feelings. The first few pages are dedicated to listing different feelings and understanding why the book is helpful and a guide to how each page works, as well as some drawing pages for children to go wild on.

A Day Out at the Guggenheim Museum

[Ad- gifted experience] Recently, I went to Bilbao, Spain and got to check out the lovely Guggenheim Museum. This three floor museum has a bunch of different exhibitions, showcases, interactive areas and more for you to explore and enjoy. Though the cafe was completely booked, myself and my friend went in to take a look at all of the art this museum had to offer! Many of the areas were no photo zones, so the only images I have here are ones that were allowed to be taken within the museum – mainly on a few of the exhibitions on the bottom floor. I am only going to talk about some of the exhibitions, as there is really a lot to see – this museum is well worth a day trip!
