Something Special for Your Little Princess!

With Christmas slowly approaching, we all are looking for some special presents for our loved ones. I am sure that a jewellery box is one of the things all little princesses would love. I have had a chance to review an absolutely beautiful wooden jewellery box designed by a Swedish designer Marie Ekerholm, the founder of Freya Design and have to say, that I was very impressed not only by the design, but also by the very high quality of the product and all the other features it has. It comes with a heart shaped mirror, latch and key, and four compartments. If you wish you can also get your box personalised! What else could a little princess wish for? Freya Design also makes beautiful keepsake boxes for boys and girls, trinket boxes, money boxes or storage boxes as well as just plain boxes.

A Wetsuit for Your Bathtoys!

All parents know how children love their bath time. Whether they are just a few weeks old or much older, they just love it, and could spend a long time playing with their bath toys. Our Isabelle is 2.5 years old now, which means she has collected quite a few bath toys, and have to admit, that they used to be just everywhere. Not any more! In the past, I bought some bath organiser, but all the toys would not fit in it and soon we had to get rid of it as it became mouldy! I have been searching for a solution for a long time and have found it! Skip Hop Tubby Bath Toy Organiser. It is just perfect, it comes in orange and blue, the soft wetsuit material dries very quickly and is machine- washable!
You can buy it at www.nubie.co.uk, a modern kids boutique.

• The dimensions (inches): 12 wide x 15 high x 4 deep
• BPA Free, Phthalate- Free
• Dries quickly

Bambino Merino - Perfect for All Seasons!

If you are looking for a great toddler sleeping bag, you should check the one from Bambino Merino. Our Isabelle has been sleeping in sleeping bags since she was tiny and we have tried a few different makes ( Mamas & Papas, Snoozie, Grobag). My daughter loves her Grobag sleeping bags, and would not sleep without one. As we were recently looking for a larger sleeping bag, she has tried sleeping in her new Bambino Merino Sleeping Toddler Bag and absolutely loved the softness and lightness of it. It is made from all natural fibres featuring a soft 100% merino lining and a striped cotton outer. It is a perfect size for 2 - 4 year old toddlers and I really like the idea that it is designed to be worn in all seasons, which means, you do not need to buy different sleeping bags for summer and winter. Some parents could be discouraged because it is more difficult to care for products made of wool, but it can be machine washed using a mild wool detergent and following the instructions mentioned on Bambino Merino website.

What I like about Merino?

• It is a breathable natural fibre
• It helps regulate baby’s body temperature
• It can be worn all year round
• It won’t scratch, itch or irritate delicate skin
• It is fire resistant
• It is odour resistant so needs less washing
• It is machine washable

Dry Night, Sleep Tight!

Our Isabelle has been without nappies for many months now, but occasionally she has accidents, especially during hot summer time, when she was drinking a lot before going to bed. But can you not give your child a drink when they ask for it? I have decided to wake her just before I go to bed, and that seemed to help. Then I started to put a plastic sheet under her fitted sheet, just in case. She did not like it, as every time she moved, the plastic sheet was making noise. Not long ago I came across Aquasolari Bed Pad, and the problem was solved! It is so soft and easy to fit. I really appreciate the size of it (99cm x 86cm) and the wings which wrap around the side of the bed and tuck in under the mattress to stop it from moving. What a great idea!

• machine washable at any temperature
  
• absorbs up to 2 litres of liquid ( it really does, I tested it!)
  
• can be tumble dried
• tested to 200 washes at 92°C
• tuck-in wings keep bed pads in place
• can be fitted above or below the sheet
