Image
We have beeen very lucky to have been able to create and design a Trunki for Lilly via the Trunki customiser.  Fom the main case itself to the hub caps, there are 10 different aspects which you can customise on the Trunki case which leads to over 1 billion possible combinations that you and your child can create. Lils started the process of designing her own Trunki and went through a few designs before settling with a purple and blue design, whilst you make changes the pictures changes to so you can see how it will look once it is made. These retail at £44.99 and acan take up to 10 days to be created. Once your order is placed you will get a confirmation email with a link to be able to see how the Truni will look when it arrives. We got an email and text the day before delivery and when it arrived the packaging dissapoint, the box itself can be created into a Trunki house including a doormat.  Once out of the box Lilly couldn't wait to pack it up and ta...

Gelli Baff and others Review

Image
We were lucky enough to have been sent some very fun items for Lil's to review, the Zimpli Kids Gelli Baff, Slime Baff and Snoball Play. These are all a bit of messy play which Lilly absoloutly loves.  The products themselves are a very reasonable price with prices as low as £2.50 for the smaller boxes and £3 for the Gelli Baff itself.  Gelli Baff review Not long after the Christmas holidays started I put an afternoon aside for Lilly to have a Gelli Baff, I did this before her actually shower night so she could wash off after. This product is skin safe, which is perfect for Lilly with her excema, which didn't even attempt to flare, it is also environmentally safe too and is also a UK made product. When making it up you just follow the easy instructions, just 4 cms of water will create a lot of the gelli goo, it is also scented with my other half commenting how it smelt like Jelly. Please take care when you child gets into the bath as it can be slipper...

Halloween Secret Stones with Bojecher Paint Marker Pens

Image
We have been busy today today creating some spooky Halloween inspired secret stones to hide during half term. We were lucky enough to be gifted some paint marker pens by BOJECHER to try out. These are perfect for many different materials such as pebbles, wood, glass, fabric, ceramic and more.  These are perfect for so many crafts all year round, they're weather proof so will last a long time. The pen has two tips to choose from, a 3mm diagonal one and a 5mm round on, the round one being better for painting bolder lines. We have had lots of fun creating some scary designs using all 12 colours in the pack, the pack includes 10 normal colours and two metalic ones too. The colours are bright and do not fade when drying, they are quick drying and no need to bake.  I have many more plans for these from personalised mugs to scrap booking. if you want to check these out I will leave the link below. https://www.amazon.co.uk/BOJECHER-Permanent-Painting-...

Hogwarts In the Snow | Warner Brothers Studio Tour | Our Day

Image
I have been meaning to post this for such a long time but have been in a bit of a funk with blogging, but I am now back and sharing my wonderful experience at the Warner Brothers Studio Tour in London, also known as the Harry Potter Studios. Back in November I got the chance to go to the studios for a late birthday treat from my Mum and Dad, they said that they would pay for tickets to go so I decided to book for The Hogwarts in the Snow experience. I booked for the 2:30 tour which meant that we didn't have to leave to early to get there.  We left home at about 10am giving us plenty of time to get there including extra just in case, we arrived with an hour to spare but got into queue straight away, in which we went though security and entered the lobby.  When entering the lobby we were greeted by a magnificent Christmas tree, cast photos and some of the larger props used in the film series. All through the tour there is the familiar sound of the Harry Pot...

A Day at Port Lympne

Image
Back in September we visited Port Lympne Animal Reserve in Kent for Lilly's 4th birthday and wanted to share our day with you all. We booked the tickets online the day before as it was cheaper to do so but for the three of us it was still £58.67 which to me is quite expensive, that does include the safari truck adventure to the African experience.  On her birthday we wanted to make a full day of it so we left at about 9am to get there for  close to 10am which we did. When you first arrive you have to cross a bridge across the road to the main entrance where you walk past a small baboon enclosure with one in, he seemed very happy to be sitting there watching people come in and out and Lilly got very excited to see him.  Once in the park there are two enclosures which we thought were closed but at the end we found out that Liam's favourite animal was hiding in there.....but we'll come back to that.  We sorted everythin...

Our new camera

Image
Last month we took the leap and brought our new camera. We went for the Samsung WB1100F 16.2 megapixal bridge camera with 35x zoom. So far we have been suprisingly pleased with it. We have taken a couple of ventures out just to try out the camera.  You can connect this camera to your phone via an app which is unbelievably simple to use, which means you can share you photos instantly.  It also has photo editing built in. I personally have not tried it but my other half said it was pretty easy to use what it had there.  It also has a burst shot feature which we have not tried yet but will hopefully do soon. These are a few shots we have captured so far. A beautiful, very foggy sunset. Theres usually buildings there. Lol An artistic shot of mine when we first got the camera. This picture is taken pretty much at full zoom from a good 1/2 mile away. I seriously cannot believe how clear this picture is.  I have fal...
