Can you guess who these celebrities are

Can you guess who these celebrities are by taking this quiz based on drawings by several talented children? I can’t as I only scored 4 out of 9!

Recently, SunLife have enlisted the blossoming creative talents of several school children to bring you a new kind of fun. They have asked children to draw different celebrities in their own way and this quiz is the result. Now they would like to challenge your artistic eye and knowledge of the latest in celebrity entertainment with their quiz. See if you can guess who these nine celebrities are, based on the creative interpretations of children.

I have a great competition that I want to share with you, especially for those living in the Midlands!

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.

Our Saturday Christmas Activities using Stencil

It was another gloomy Saturday so we decided to stay at home to do art and craft and baking with the kids. It’s always a great way of spending family time together. At times, it can be quite stressful for me preparing the items before both children start pestering me. So I brought out all the stuff we needed the night before.

Draw, Wipe & Stick on Skribbies Shoes

Are your children bored of the same design on their shoes? Or do you have a child who simply loves to draw? Now Skribbies Shoes enable children to draw and stick stickers on them! They are a new and excellent product founded by young entrepreneur Jennifer Duthie.

She was inspired by the fabric paints of the 90s and wanted to develop a product for kids that was more versatile and would allow kids to keep on customising.

Eggnogg Colour In Review

This month has been an exciting month for us. We were away to attend events in London but we also had a few days in where we did activities together. Today, we decided to have a lazy Sunday and I took out the Eggnogg for them to colour in.

BrainBox Games Colour and Learn

Recently, we reviewed the BrainBox games My First Picture and ABC. Honestly, I did not know that they also have colouring books. I was given these two Colour and Learn Animals and Teddy Bears books for review. It is suitable for age 5 onwards. Each book has 24 tear out pictures.

Mister Maker Volume 5

Mister Maker Volume 5 was out on DVD last week 3rd June. It is yet another brilliant craft time with him. In this DVD, there are 5 episodes and each are over 19 minutes. There are over 20 art and craft ideas making a wobbly egg, ice cream cone, 3D ships, worms in a can etc.
We are big fans of the Cbeebies channel and my children love to watch Mister Maker whenever it is on. We are delighted to get this for review.
This is Ms C trying to follow Mister Maker while watching the DVD.

Woolly and Tig – First Day DVD

When I asked my son to watch this DVD, he replied he had watched it on Cbeebies. I was totally unaware of the show as it is shown at 8am in the morning. At that time, normally I am still tidying the rooms.
