Breastvest - Breastfeeding Underwear For Yummy Mummies!

This specially designed breastfeeding underwear will be highly appreciated not only by breastfeeding mums, but also by pregnant women, as it perfectly covers the bump. And how it works? It is designed to sit just below your nursing bra. What I've found great about this product is that you can wear your normal tops, no need to buy specially designed breastfeeding tops, which means saving a lot of money! All you need to do is to lift up your normal top and the breastvest will cover your belly. It has specially designed adjustable straps which will keep it in place.

Yondi - Another Great Product From Trunki!

When travelling with kids, you want them to feel as much comfortable as possible, so that the journey does not turn into a nightmare. We all know how it feels when you are tired, falling asleep and your head just keeps on slumping forward or from one side to the other. One of my friend's told me about Yondi, and we decided it would be on Isabelle's Xmas list. She loved it straight away, the beautiful pink & green combination as well as the fabric. It is not just a head rest, it is ergonomically designed to provide total head support and can be used as a great reading pillow.

• unique shape for total support
  
• double sided pillow ( one side for summer, one for winter)
• machine washable
• comfortable neck support
• circular pillow stops heads from rolling
• magnets create comfortable chin rest
• comes in 3 sizes- baby, child, big kid
  

Why Do We Love Speedo So Much?

My family is very passionate about swimming, and that's why we started taking Isabelle when she was just over 3 months old. As we go quite often, we always get good quality swimwear that lasts, is comfortable and looks great. We love Speedo, and have always been very satisfied with their products. Most people recognize this brand as most winners in major swimming competitions wear Speedo, but did you know they first developed the still- popular racerback swim top back in 1928?

Infant Girls' Laurel Legsuit

When swimming, I love feeling comfortable and have always preferred legsuits to normal cut swimming costumes. Speedo has also got one for little girls and Isabelle loves it, as it does not get stuck in anywhere where it is not supposed to get stuck in! It also comes in purple and pink!

• 80% Polyamide 20% Elastane
• colourful Speedo logo across the front
• an UPF50 rating providing UVA and UVB protection from the sun

Roll Up Armbands

Another great Speedo product. Much easier to put on than normal armbands and without hurting your little one's arms! They have security valves and are suitable for children 2 - 12 years old, and up to 50 kg.

Water Bombs

All parents know how much most children love going swimming. As they grow and are more fun -play demanding why not to try these animal shaped soft foam waterbombs to keep them happy? They are not just for the swimming pool, our daughter loves throwing them around in her bath too.

Bobble Floatsuit

This floatsuit not only helps building confidence in the water, but also helps your little one to learn swim strokes without the restriction of armbands. It comes in sizes suitable for 2-3, 3-4, 4-5, 5-6 years old children, is made 100% of polyester and comes in blue or pink.

Jungle Wall Decoration with Blackboard!

My daughter is very creative and loves painting, drawing and scribbling. When we were decorating her bedroom, changing it from a " baby room" to her "bedroom", we did not want to make it pink, as most girls' bedrooms are, but more colourful. We bought quite a few things from Ikea, but could not find many wall decorations anywhere. Then I came across Panduro Hobby website and this jungle wall decoration with blackboard caught my eye. When Isabelle saw it for the first time, she was very delighted she could draw on it with a chalk. In the past I had to clean the walls in our house after her drawing, not any more! She loves the idea it is on a wall and can draw on it and at the same time will not make a mess for mummy to tidy up!

At What Age Should Kids Learn To Ski?

I come from a family where skiing was one of the skills all members had to learn, as we had snow from November till March. I was 5 when I started, but most ski instructors these days, as well as me, would recommend to start much earlier. Our Isabelle is not even 3 years old yet, and could not wait to be on the ski slopes with her mummy, daddy and all her cousins. Even though I am a qualified ski instructor, most of my friends have advised me not teach her myself. Why? You know what toddlers can be like sometimes, and it makes a big difference to be taught by a parent or a teacher. They seem to listen to the completely new teacher more and do not tend to talk back or refuse to do things. Isabelle did very well. She looked very proud in her ski helmet and absolutely loved standing and sliding on her skis! She cannot wait to go back in February and practise some more skiing. I am very pleased, as skiing is one of my favourite sports, I have taught my husband and now even our little Isabelle will be able to join us. Cannot wait for our first family ski holidays in the Alps next year!
