I recently went to the Blog On Toys conference in Manchester. One of the biggest highlights for me was that Nintendo were there with Labo. If you’re not aware of it already, cardboard and technology combine for customisable fun with Labo and Nintendo Switch. Let me show you how awesome it is – and as a bonus, Nintendo have kindly provided me with a Labo Variety Kit and Customisation Set to giveaway!

Review: Axkid Minikid Rear-facing Car Seat
When I was pregnant with Autumn I researched everything I could think of that I might need to know about parenting. Once she was born, it turned out there was a LOT I hadn’t thought of! However, one thing I had looked into a great deal was car seats. I’d read a lot about the benefits of extended rear-facing and was determined to keep her in a rear-facing car seat for at long as possible. Over the last few months, we’ve been trying out the Axkid Minikid.
The pros and cons of working from home
Working from home is becoming increasingly common. We live in an age of technology where it is easy to work wherever we are and stay in touch with our colleagues all around the world. I personally do a lot of working from home in my day job as a Software QA Specialist. Whilst working from home has many pros, there are some cons to it too.
Why rear-facing car seats are the way forward
When Autumn turned 15 months old in January, we knew it was time for her to move out of her first car seat as she had reached its limit. From research I’d done when I was pregnant, I knew that I wanted her to be rear-facing for as long as possible. UK regulations now state that you must have your child in a rear-facing car seat until they’re 15 months. However, whether they change to forward-facing or not after that is your decision. I personally decided I want to keep her rear-facing as long as possible as, after scouring the internet reading numerous blogs and articles, I feel it is safer.
