Following on from the marvellous Totoro nail art how-to, we've found this rather lovely Toy Story Alien tutorial Roslion90 has kept it simple with just four colours and a repeated design that's the same on every nail (so you can probably just about pass for normal in polite society. The Toy Story … [Read more...]
LEGO’s Lord of the Rings collection
LEGO was my favourite toy as a child. And, well, if I had no family, no job and I still had all my toys, it would be my favourite toy now. Which brings me to the new Lord of the Rings LEGO sets. Combining Star Wars with LEGO was a master-stroke, but this takes it a step further for me. The … [Read more...]
New Star Soccer: super-addictive mobile game
It’s finally come, that time of year that all football fans hate: Summer.

Shopping offline is not fun; you have to wear actual clothes. And deal with people inyourface. And queue for things. And – in … [Read more...]
My First Digital Music Player from BabyZoo

Charging on the go: The offGRID™ Pro for iPhone
On an average day into London my phone is lucky to last beyond 6pm. Admittedly, this is because I'm terrible about flicking through lots of apps, but why has no one invented a way to charge your phone in the same way you can access wi-fi on the go? In the meantime there are dozens of portable … [Read more...]
Phantomus Kids’ Stylus for iPads
Our toddler is already under the illusion that the iPad belongs to her; an illusion the Phantomus Kids' Stylus will do nothing to dispel.

Fifty Shades of Grey starter kit
It’s roped us in and whipped us up into a frenzy of “kinky f***ery”: The Fifty Shades trilogy is a book phenomenon that has remained in the New York Times bestseller list for the last 12 weeks.
