Teletubbies Review

The wait is now over and I can reveal this awesome range of Teletubbies toys! I personally love Teletubbies very much. It is one of the first shows I ever watched when I arrived in the UK, way before I had children! I was always hugely fond of Po. She is such a cute character, the smallest and youngest among the rest!

Since the return of the Teletubbies to children’s TV last year November, a whole new generation of tots have joined Tinky Winky, Dipsy, Laa-Laa and Po in Tellytubbyland and now they can enjoy them in the playroom too, with each toy lovingly created to encourage learning through play. This stunning collection features interactive soft toys, figurines, playsets and novelty items which are all available from mid-January.

Dream Toys 2015

Having heard of Dream Toys these past few years, last week, I finally had the chance to attend one as press/a journalist. I was quite nervous and unsure what I had to do. When I reached the event venue (not very clearly signed and with heavy rain), there were already a lot of people and children running about playing with all these awesome toys!

Bizzy Bitz Review

Recently, we came across these unique Bizzy Bitz toys. They have a range of building sets for children aged 3 onwards. It was invented by Mr Alta and Mrs Rachel Fogel who have both been working with children for over 25 years. Having observed children of various ages and abilities playing with the various construction toys and based on this research, they invented a universal, totally innovative ball and socket style system, which they named Bizzy Bitz.

Schleich Dinosaur Review

Earlier this year, Schleich launched a new range of horses and now they have launched this beautiful range of dinosaurs! This Schleich dinosaur range is suitable for children aged 3 and above. They have Saichania, Stegosaurus, Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, Pentaceratops and many more.

We have received these two gorgeous dinosaurs: Tyrannosaurus Rex and Spinosaurus. The finish on the dinosaurs is to a very high standard. Each dinosaur has their own distinctive post and detailed features. Both are able to stand on their own and quite chunky to hold. Their jaws are articulated so they can open their mouths too.

Xeno Koopies Review

Xeno is a loveable baby monster who interacts and play with you! And now meet Xeno Koopies! He is a smaller version of Xeno. He is almost like a mini ball that could fit onto the palm of your hand.

Xeno Koopies is a cute and adorable monster that my daughter instantly adored. I was surprised that she wasn’t scared of him bouncing and rolling around.
