Collaborative Post¦ It’s not just regular schools that have started up again this September. Dance schools are now back too, hooray! Autumn has always loved dancing. In fact, she first started dancing on my first Mother’s Day when she was 6 months old. She heard some music and started smiling and wiggling from side to side, moving her chubby little arms around. For years, she seemed content just dancing in whatever way her mood took her. However, recently she’s expressed an interest in ballet. As a child, I did modern, Irish and a little bit of tap. Therefore, it was very exciting to sign my daughter up for dance lessons and choose her ballet clothes from Bloch.

Book Review: Spikey by Tereza Anteneová
Review (gifted)¦ As autumn approaches, it’s an important time of year for hedgehogs as they prepare to go into hibernation. Indeed, it’s important to carefully check before you light the bonfire just in case some of our prickled friends have chosen it as a place to sleep for the winter! I’ve always been fond of hedgehogs and am keen to pass on the love to my 4 year old daughter, Autumn. We’ve recently read Spikey by Tereza Anteneová, which was a great opportunity for us to learn more about these fascinating animals. Aimed at 2-8 year olds, this book is supported by the charity Hedgehog Street, and “aims to encourage children and their parents to help save the hedgehogs by creating hedgehog-friendly gardens and discouraging predators”.
Review: Tutti Rouge – The Fuller Bust Company
Gifted¦ I’ve previously complained on my blog about how difficult I find it to find bras in my size, never mind ones that are good value for money! I have the issue of having a small band size, whilst having an E cup. Well, Tutti Rouge (The Fuller Bust Company) have come to my rescue! They were launched in 2011 as a specialist fuller bust lingerie brand, but have actually been designing DD+ lingerie for over 25 years! They now sell supportive bras as well as comfy bralettes and sexy bodies for those who have been blessed in the boob department, as well as knickers to match. Recently I’ve put some of their lingerie to the test!
Relaxation in Pregnancy and Beyond with Zita West
Gifted¦ At 26 weeks of pregnancy, I am definitely needing little luxuries and self-care. Perhaps more so as I suspect I have pelvic girdle pain (ugh) and am being referred to a physiotherapist. I’d never previously heard of Zita West, but I was recently sent some products to try out. The Zita West Fertility Clinic in London is an IVF clinic with a full range of fertility treatments. Their product range caters to women trying to conceive, as well as supporting them through pregnancy and the postpartum period. Keep reading to see what I tried and how I got on!
Review: Owleez – the flying interactive owl toy!
Review¦ Thinking back to my childhood in the 90’s, my Furby was one of my most favourite toys. For those looking for modern interactive toys, The Uzzle offers a range of fun and engaging options that children will love exploring and learning with.
Yep, things have come progressed a lot since the 90s when it comes to interactive toys. One such example are Owleez – toy owls that you can teach to fly! Aimed at 6 year olds upwards, I know I would have adored this as a child. (Actually, I even find it pretty fun to play with as an adult!)
