Review: Xbox 2 way TV experience

June 19, 2013

I attended a session to learn about the Xbox 2 way TV experience the other week. You may not have heard about it before, I hadn’t either but using XBox 360 Kinect allows children to physically interact with characters on the screen. Demonstrated to us at the session was Sesame Street TV where the child [...]

Review: Disney Pixar ‘Monsters University’

June 17, 2013

I have just done a search and can you believe that Monsters Inc was released in 2001! 2001?? I can’t quite believe it myself, oh how my life was different then, and I only had three children. That’s twelve years ago…and it is watched so much by my five year old, it certainly doesn’t look [...]

Review: Lego Friends Poodle’s Little Palace

June 3, 2013

I think I’ve mentioned before that I’ve never really bought Lego for the girls before because they just didn’t seem interested in it which is a shame because I loved it as a child. Although, there was only ‘freestyle’ Lego when I was a child, none of the themed sets that you can get now. [...]

Review: The Nutribox

May 19, 2013

I am always looking for snacks to fill up my sixteen year old son who cannot eat gluten or dairy, especially ones that are easy to take to school to keep his energy levels up during the day. It is also very hard to find things that he will actually eat…you all know how [...]

Review: Walkers Hoops and Crosses

May 13, 2013

We don’t tend to have crisps or savoury snacks in the house very often, I am not an advocate of bags of crisps in packed lunches, but I do believe in ‘everything in moderation’. All too often I have seen children deprived of something then go completely over the top when faced with a biscuit [...]

Review: Windows Phone with Holly Willoughby

April 29, 2013

A couple of weeks ago I was lucky to attend an afternoon tea event with Holly Willoughby hosting as she talked about how she uses her Windows Phone to stay on top of her hectic life as a working mum. What is a Windows Phone do I hear you asking? Well they come in all [...]

Review: Parcelgenie, the world’s first gift messaging app

April 22, 2013

Have you ever had the urge to let someone know that you’re thinking of them but don’t want to spend a fortune, or just don’t have their address? I love buying presents for people so was very excited to hear about Parcelgenie, the world’s first instant gift messaging app. What is it? It is a [...]

Review: Seascape luxury bath & body products

April 17, 2013

I am always on the look out for new skincare products nowadays, what is it about getting old older? I have noticed that my make up bag is expanding rather rapidly as I need more cover up and my bathroom shelves are heaving under the weight of all my lotions and potions in the hope [...]

Review: Tesco Price Promise

April 10, 2013

In this day and age we are all looking to save extra pennies wherever we can but we all seem to have less time too. I certainly don’t have time to traipse around supermarkets finding the cheapest deal for every item I buy and I also don’t live in area conducive to this which is [...]
