LG KizON Wristband Phone Review
How would you like to be able to call and track your young child by a press of a button to give you peace of mind? Sound like a great right? Indeed! LG KizON are finally coming to UK and we are amongst the first in the UK to try it on!
This LG KizON is a wearable designed (pink & blue) exclusively for pre-school and primary school children that gives you a simple and convenient way to communicate with your child. This has been designed specifically for children to wear on their wrists to be used as a direct communication device with their parents and guardians. My 7 year old son was very impressed and he thinks this looks like a ‘spy’ watch. Instead of holding a phone next to his ear, he can easily communicate by talking to his ‘watch’! His friends were impressed and they all wanted to press the call button to make a phone call. So yes, I have received a lot of missed calls from him and his friends trying to work out this cool gadget!
My Leftover Challenge with Knorr
As a SAHM, I always plan our meals and try to make sure that nothing goes to waste. But during the festive season, it is easy to go overboard and buy too much food, ‘just in case’. I am so excited to join Mumsnet and Knorr to create my own recipes or to try out Knorr recipes to do this challenge. I decided to make up my own recipes.
The Croods
Earlier this year, we took both of our children to watch The Croods at the cinema. Unfortunately, Ms C wanted to go to the loo after we sat in the cinema for about 1.5 hours. By the time we came back to our seat, the movie had finished! Though Mr C did explain what happened in the last 5 minutes, it’s obviously not the same as watching it for yourself. So when Mumsnet was look for reviewers, I was delighted to get picked by them so that I’m able to finish the movie!
Tom Pellereau Invented Stylfile Nipper Clipper
It is always so daunting to cut babies nails! I still remember cutting Mr K’s nails was like a military operation. One person would distract him while the other would cut his nails. I recall our health visitor suggested us to bite them off or just leave it for a bit longer before we peel them off because they’re thin and soft when they are babies. As a first time parent, we didn’t dare to even cut them nor bite them. It was always so hard. We even exchanged tips on how to cut baby nails when we met with our friends with babies. Some of them would just file them off and some would just wait until the baby’s nails were far too long before they used a nail clipper.

B&Q unloved rooms revamp with mumsnet
Recently, Mumsnet was looking for 20 MNers to revamp an unloved room in their home. I was one of the lucky ones to have been chosen by B&Q. I was sent a B&Q gift card to spend on a makeover for the unloved room. The unloved room used to be the nursery room for our children when they were babies. They have long since moved into their own rooms and it has gradually been a dumping ground for toys and books. I wanted to use this fantastic opportunity to turn it into a study room for my children who is in primary school.
Mumsnet’s Twitter Party with The Knackered Mother’s Wine Club
Yesterday evening Mumsnet and their special guest, Helen McGinn, blogger and author of The Knackered Mother’s Wine Club, lead us through a wine-tasting.
