Toys That Will Inspire Your Kids For The Next Adventure

Being a parent can be very rewarding, but at the same time, it can be very hard work. As a parent, you want to protect and wrap them in bubble wrap, and at the same time, you want them to be brave and more adventurous in the unknown world. Parenting is always full of dilemmas.

In our household, we always look for ways to get our children to step outside their comfort zones and be more adventurous to foster their love of travel. Travelling helps to broaden the mind and build human connections by learning about their culture, food, music and the way people live their day-to-day lives in different parts of the world.

Gibsons Puzzle Lucky Dip

One of my favourite hobbies is solving jigsaw puzzles. I do sometimes find them quite stressful, but at the same time, very satisfying when I find the missing pieces. I probably do an average of 4 – 6 puzzles a year. Recently, I’ve done more than usual as I bought three packets of Gibsons puzzle lucky dips. In total, I have 9 different puzzles to do. It didn’t take me long to complete them all; a 1000 piece set will probably take me 3 or 4 evenings.

PAJ GPS Power Finder 4G Review

With an increasing number of car thieves, a GPS tracking device can be an extremely affordable and effective way to increase vehicle security and provide protection against car theft. Having quick access to location information in the palm of your hand can give you greater peace of mind. Besides keeping your car safe, you can also locate your car in a large car park, monitor where a car park valet parked your car and many more great reasons why you need a car tracker.

X-Sense Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Alarm

Recently, I reviewed the X-Sense Wi-Fi smoke alarm and mentioned how inconvenient it is to have three separate smoke alarms that do not communicate with one another. I would not be able to hear the one in the annexe if it rings because it’s quite far from my bedroom in my main home. Now, that problem is solved with these wireless interlinked smoke and carbon monoxide alarms that can communicate with each other.

Avoalre Athletic Ankle Socks Review

Last year, we got to try out Avoalre high ankle athletic socks and until now some are still wearable. We are quite hard users so it’s been a good test of their durability. This time around, we were invited to try out these low-ankle socks. The differences between these two types of socks are that this current one has a heel tab and they don’t wrap around the ankle like the previous socks we reviewed. If you prefer to have low-ankle wrapped socks, these will be suitable for you.

Soppycid Magnetic Reusable Water Balloons Review

Don’t we all love a water fight, no matter what age we are?! My children and their friends love water fights and it is something we sometimes do during summer! Although the weather is starting to get a bit cooler here in the UK, we can still have water fights with our loved ones this autumn.

Bugsy Malone The Musical at The Rep

You have until 14th August 2022 to catch this superbly enjoyable Bugsy Malone The Musical at Birmingham The Rep. We loved this bad boy musical, especially with the lively music, the great energy levels from a talented cast of 9 to 15 year olds and the excitement which ran throughout the show.
