Hot Wheels Celebrating Father’s Day

Father’s Day is just around the corner. We always try to make the most of the day by having a nice meal and spending time having fun together. Both my husband and I have lost our fathers through illness. Mr C has vowed to stay healthy and stay active with the children. Also working from home means Mr C gets to see the children and have dinner together more often.

Multi Faith School Trip Derby

Recently, I was invited by my children’s school to make a short video clip on their Multi Faith school trip. We are hoping to use the brief introduction video to show parents what the trip is about and to educate children who will be going in the near future.

Japanese Surprise Box Unwrapped

My son has been watching quite a lot of video on YouTube and one of the videos he saw was about unwrapping a food box and trying out the snacks in it. So he asked my sister who happened to be working in Japan at the time to make him a box.

I asked her to get us a small box of candies and I was so surprised to receive a huge box of Japanese goodies! Some of them are my favourites too! I have been to Japan three times for holidays and I am totally in love with the place and their cute ‘kawaii’ foods/snacks. They place emphasis on the emotive packaging and pay extra attention to detail. It makes the food so appealing!

Samsung K Zoom Camera Vlog Shop

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #CollectiveBias

This is one of the most exciting #CollectiveBias vlogging shops I have ever done. I am so proud of my Samsung K Zoom that I would like to share three of my favourite features on the camera. Last year, I received this Samsung K Zoom phone for review and until now it is still my favourite phone.

Kärcher K4 Pressure Washer Review

I am so glad the weather is getting warmer. After a long hard winter, the stone patio path, wooden decking and driveway looks extremely dull. So armed with the Kärcher K4 Home Pressure Washer, it is an ideal time to clean away all the dirt that has accumulated.

The Kärcher K4 Pressure Washer combines power with an innovative water-cooled induction motor for enhanced performance and longer life. Our model also comes with the additional Home kit that includes a T350 patio cleaner and detergent.

ChillFactor Drink Bottle Review

Before you start using the drinks bottle, disassemble everything before washing. There are instructions included which shows you the step-by-step with picture captions. Pop the cooling pack into the freezer for 4 – 6 hours or until it is frozen before assembling it so that it’s ready to use.

Heroes of the City Review

Two years ago, we discovered Heroes of the City and got in touch to review their app. They have been going from strength to strength and even have a movie on their YouTube channel.

For any of you who have not heard of Heroes of the City, they are a pre-school children’s television cartoon about rescue vehicles in a small town where everybody gets to be a hero! In the show, you get to meet Pauli Police Car and Fiona Fire Engine as they help the townspeople find thieves, put out fires and solve crime that happens in the otherwise quiet town. You will also get to know Calamity Crow, the most misunderstood bird in town. The cartoon is suitable for children aged 2 – 6.

Thank Gosh It’s Monday

Do you love or hate Mondays? Mondays are often the most hated day of the week. I used to hate them as I worked 4.5 days a week as an Operating Theatre Nurse. Normally, I worked during office hour and occasionally did shift work. It meant I had to wake up at 7am to get to work at 8am. I have never been a morning person and after having a weekend rest, Monday was not my favourite day at work. More things seemed to go wrong too like making sure there were beds available for the patients, surgery instruments, etc. But since I am a SAHM, I now love Mondays!

Super Hero Story Telling

Recently, I have received a packet of Star Hero Foam Stickers from Baker Ross. I decided to make it into a story board and encourage my children to perform their own storytelling. This storytelling board encourages your child to use their imagination and creativity.

Before I handed the foam stickers and card over to my children, I explained to them how this Super Hero Story Telling worked. The black card is like their story board and they can be as creative as they want by using the foam.

Sylvester Stallone ‪#‎TheDeliverers Warburtons

Have you seen Warburtons’s freshly baked ad with Sylvester Stallone? It was first shown yesterday on ITV at 8.15pm.  This is the lovely Sylvester Stallone’s action advert with the British freshly baked bread from Bolton. I love the T-shirt (I love Bolton) Sylvester Stallone wore! I am so glad that we managed to get one plus the Warburtons hat and oven gloves! This is Mr C wearing it! Don’t he look smart in it! Lol.

Kärcher Window Vac WV2 Review

When is the last time you cleaned your windows? I have to be honest that it has been almost a year since I cleaned ours! I do hate cleaning windows as it takes a long time to do properly. Firstly, you have to wash it with warm soapy water, then wipe the water away and finish by using a dry cloth to make sure there is no water mark left on the window. In the end, I will end up with 2 buckets of water, 2 cloths and maybe a paper towel!

The popularity of the Frozen movie has been phenomenal from the moment it graced the cinemas in 2013. All the little girls wanted to be like Elsa, the Snow Queen! My daughter, Ms C is the same too! She loves the movie and is mad for all things Frozen including of the dress, plush toys, dolls, wallpaper etc.!

She was so thrilled when she saw this 2 in 1 Frozen Magic Snow Sleeve from Flair and gorgeous Frozen Elsa Deluxe dress from Rubies.
