OXO Strawberry Huller & Berry Bowl Review
Whenever Wimbledon is on, you always know that berry season is here! I love how shops lay out all the berries and cream next to each another. I always get at least two packets of various berries at a time. We love eating it with honey or use it as ice cream topping.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Battle Shell Review
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are fictional turtles who were trained in the art of ninjutsu to be heroes by their rat sensei. It started off with comic books which were followed by cartoon series, films, toys and many more. TMNT is one of my childhood favourite cartoon series and over 20 years on, they are still going strong. Both of my children love them too.
We had recently reviewed the Turtles Flinger Donatello and Mutagen Ooze Leo which you can read and watch our video here.
Now we have received the battle shell series which are small figurines. We have Michelangelo and Shredder. They are suitable from 4 year and above.
Michelangelo<
Michelangelo carries his ninja arsenals in his indestructible Battle Shell. If he meets any monsters, he is ready to pop open his protective shell for a weaponized surprize.
Orchard Toys Rockets and Comets Review
Rockets and Comets is one of the six new releases for 2014 by Orchard Toys! We had the opportunity to try it out at the Toy Fair 2014 and both children loved it.
Rockets and Comets is very similar to the classic game Snakes and Ladders. The concept is the same but set in a space theme and Orchard Toys have added an extremely fun variation to the game. Now if you land on the black holes, you will have to spin the spinner to see which black holes you are going to get transported into it.

My Desert Island Discs Playlist, assuming there are batteries!
Some of you may know that I love Korean TV drama and their K-pop music genre. So please forgive me if I bore you with my huge selection of K-pop. In case you’re wondering, K-pop means Korean Pop music!
I have been tag by Sally Whittle to do my Desert Island Discs playlist – read her choices here. I have to admit that I had not heard of some of her song choices before so it is nice to discover new music.
