Book Review¦ Modern life is stressful. Even for children, there seems to be an ever increasing amount of pressure. As someone who suffered from anxiety as a child, I know the importance of being aware of and taking care of our mental health from a young age first-hand. Books are always a great way of introducing this! We were recently sent a copy of The Drama Llama by Rachel Morrisroe, which looks at the topic of worries and how to handle them.

Review: Eco Plush Collection
Ad – Gifted¦ National Earth Day falls on 22nd April, bringing the importance of climate change to the forefront of our minds. Many of us are making more eco-friendly choices in our lives. I know I personally have made a lot of swaps in my life over the last few years. I’ve used cloth nappies on both Autumn and Reuben, have used reusable water bottles for years and have eco-friendly cork encased deodorant. However, cuddly toys aren’t something that have crossed my mind too often. Eco Plush collection toys are an eco-conscious choice which are made from 100% recycled materials! Let’s take a closer look…
Easter trail and activities at Hever Castle
Ad – Gifted¦ Hever Castle just outside Edenbridge is one of our favourite places to explore as a family. It always looks beautiful and feels magical, no matter what season it is or what the weather is like. We hadn’t been in almost a year and were delighted to be invited back to put their children’s Easter trail and activities to the test! These run until 18th April, so they’ll be on for the rest of the school holidays too.

Review: DoodleJamz – mess-free drawing pad
Review – Gifted¦ Autumn loves getting creative and has been annoyed before when we’ve told her she can’t take her paper and pens in the car on a journey! She’s been very pleased to put DoodleJamz to the test, as she can now draw in the car. DoodleJamz are able the same size as a small tablet and are sensory drawing pads that provide hours of fun! They’re also very reasonably priced and would make an excellent non-chocolate Easter gift!
