Philips My Den Competition & Hangout

Philips know lighting plays a vital role in creating spaces that feed their creativity hence they are all about encouraging kids’ imaginations through Imaginative Lighting.

The Philips and Disney Imaginative Lighting range is a simple, magical way to bring their environment and imagination alive. The range includes products that inspire them in their bedrooms whether playing, sleeping, or reading. Recently, Mr K received the Spider-Man’s reading light to go along with his Avengers Mural bedroom which helps create a magical atmosphere in his bedroom! He was so exhilarated by it!

Now Philips are inviting parents and their children to create #MyDen using the simplest tools like blankets, cardboard boxes, pillows, chairs, torches etc. You could video it, take a photo or even draw a den and post it via Twitter or Philips Facebook using the hashtag #MyDen to enter the competition. Read the terms and conditions here: http://philips.to/1olsVqR. There are a lot of fantastic prizes up for grabs!

A Unique Photo Collage with Easy Collage

I was so thrilled to receive my Home Sweet Home photo collage from Easy Collage that I uploaded a photo of it straight away to Facebook. I was excited to see that all my Facebook friends loved it too, and my Singapore friends wanted to print one too.

JOHNSON’S Baby – First Touch

Determining what you can and cannot use baby’s skin and their hair is always worrying for first time parents. To help new parents looking for peace of mind the JOHNSON’S® Baby brand has created FIRST TOUCH™, a brand new fragrance-free range developed for newborns that includes everything new parents need to cleanse and protect their baby’s delicate skin from top to toe.

Newborn skin is very delicate and a study of 540 first-time mums shown that almost two thirds (62%) said their baby experienced dry or sensitive skin, over half (51%) experienced redness or a rash, and almost a quarter (24%) suffered from cradle cap or dandruff. Newborn skin is around a third thinner than adult skin and loses moisture quicker, making them more susceptible to dryness and irritation and in need of extra care to protect their skin’s natural defences.

Moonpig British Summer Collection

Just a couple month ago, I was invited to Moonpig’s Spring/Summer collection and now they have launched their Summer Collection, which has a big emphasis on British bouquets such as British lilies, gladioli, sunflowers, aster etc. They all look so lovely!

Spatone Liquid Iron Supplement Review

Earlier in June, while I was at the BritMums conference, I was introduced to Spatone from Nelsons. I was offered to try out their apple flavoured liquid iron supplement with vitamin C. My first impression is that it has quite a refreshing apple flavour with an aftertaste of iron. I am not a big fan of iron tablets as they always gave me constipation while I was pregnant.

Trunki PaddlePak Review

We are no strangers to Trunki as we already have their ride on luggage from a prior holiday. We also bought the BoostApak on our way to Singapore. It was a fantastic purchase for us! As in the UK, Singapore is strict in that children should be sat in a car seat/booster seat. Now whenever we go travelling, we don’t need to rent a car seat as the BoostApak is ready to use!

Shock Doctor Tennis Elbow Strap Review

Mr C is a keen sportsman and loves playing badminton at least twice a week. He does get various aches and pains though partly due to old injuries and partly due to growing old. Checking through his kit bag, there’s a knee strap, back strap, wrist strap and tennis elbow strap! So we were delighted to be sent this Shock Doctor Tennis Elbow Strap for review.

Philips Marvel Spider-Man Table Light Review

Philips has created a range of lighting that brings children’s imaginations to life as they play and makes them feel safe as they sleep. From projectors to wall lights to flash lights with a range of Disney and Marvel themes like Monsters, Spider-Man, Princesses, Cars etc.

Mr K is a massive fan of Marvel comics and we had recently decorated his room with Dulux Marvel wallpaper. This Philips Marvel Spider-Man table lamp had come at the right time to add ambiance and adventure.

YUUWorld YUUtuu Bag Review

After seeing children carrying their stuff in flimsy and non-supportive backpacks, YUUWorld wanted to produce a backpack that would be more supportive – yet light-weight. They used the advice of BackCare, the UK’s charity for healthier backs, to incorporate ergonomic features into the YUUbag.

Certainly Wood Flamers & S’Mores Review

Two weeks ago, we received the Certainly Wood S’Mores kit which included a fire starter kit with kiln dried logs; kiln dried kindling; Flamers Natural Firelighters; CW matches plus a package of digestives; marshmallows; chocolate; wooden sticks; a s’mores recipe and a graphic showing you how to make this delicious BBQ treat in a fire pit or chimenea.

Bio Persil Small and Mighty Review

It seems my children’s clothing are a magnet for paint, ink, food or mud.  Mr K is the main culprit.  Yesterday, he and his friend were play fighting and rolling around the field and came back home very muddy indeed.  Luckily, we had the Persil solution to put to the test.

bio PersilSwapping to Persil’s liquid solution, we instantly noticed the fresh laundry smell after the wash.  Our noses have become accustomed to our usual Fairy laundry powder and so maybe it’s a good time to swap our usual laundry product as I miss those strong laundry smells!

Build Your Own Den with pl-ug

In these modern times, we all try hard to give our children the best and of course, provide them with a fun childhood.  At times, Mr C will build a den with the kids and have their mini party while I cook lunch/dinner.  I am so pleased to come across pl-ug (the den expert) at the recent Toy Fair.  Now I won’t need to look for my missing pegs or clips as they have proper kit to help them build a proper canopy den!

Stamp it with Stamptastic

I love my stationery and since young I have always tagged every piece of my property with my name.  But now I found an even better and easier way to get my name printed on it.  Stamp it with Stamptastic!

A3 Personlised Art Frame

Both of my children always come back home with their school drawings which would be nice to pin up or frame.  We often find that we have no wall or fridge space to spare to pin up their lovely drawings.  Then I came across My 1st Years who specialise in personalised baby gifts and one of those gifts is this beautiful white A3 Personalised Art Frame.

Good Sleep Expert Silk Pillowcase

The Silk Pillowcase and the rest of the ‘The Good Sleep Expert’ range are available from http://thegoodsleepexpert.com. They have kindly sent two pillowcase for us to try it out.  My first impression is that it is very silky and feels very nice on my face.  It is so smooth that I love to nuzzle my face into it for that comforting feeling while sleeping.
