There is also a set of instructions and 180+ sticky buttons that are attached to clear plastic sheets in green, blue, white, yellow and purple. The buttons were in {Read More}

I was excited to be offered the chance to review Puzzler World 2013 because I already have Puzzler World 2012 and thought it would be great to see what differences there are between the two.

It has Loko, Maze-A-Pix, Backwords, Number Jig plus wordsearch, crossword, sudoku, codeword, pathfinder, silhouette, fitword, spot the difference, {Read More}
Children love bubbles especially giant bubbles, I don’t know of one child that is not happy and content with a bubble pot in their hands. We were sent a Dr Zigs Giant Bubbles kit which included, instructions, a multi loop wand, a giant wand and Giant Bubbles mix.

We all love a girls night, but what one do I prefer? Well I like nothing more than a girls night in. Why? That is a simple question to answer, I like the creature comforts of being at home. I can eat as much as I like as the girls know me, I can drink as much as I like because I am usually at my home or not far from it so do not have to really worry about {Read More}

We usually use old cereal boxes, cardboard boxes and what ever is laying around and sometimes we find things that we have collected when we go out for walks, this could be sticks, leaves, feathers, acorns and other seeds that we find. We then have a crafty day and make different things with the items we have collected using glue, paint, felt tips, magazine {Read More}
I do not like Winter, the cold, the nights drawing in early, it is depressing but it won’t be long until Summer will be here. I am already looking forward to all the things we can do in the back garden. We love to eat out in the garden, having a barbecue or just sandwiches but we only have the parasol umbrella that came with our patio set and it does not really do a great job in protecting the {Read More}
My six year old daughter absolutely loves to dress up and if she had her way I am sure she would wear her dress up outfits to school, home, bed and even shopping. She really looks forward to World Book Day because it means she can dress up as her favourite book character at school but also because she loves to read. We call her our little bookworm as she has her nose in a book a lot of the {Read More}
