The parents of YouTube

August 16, 2014 By Jillian Boyd

Louise and Marie (Sprinkle of Glitter and Bits and Clips)

As our editor Katie can probably testify, having young kids is a bit like having a full-time and a half day job on top of your actual day job. Time becomes a myth, personal space stops existing and what the hell is that thing called "sleep" anyway? Sometimes, you need a reminder that you're not … [Read more...]

Fun and creative ways to use Loom Bands

June 30, 2014 By Jillian Boyd

Rainbow Loom Captain America, by PG'sLoomacy on YouTube

Fun fact: it is (almost) impossible to go shopping these days without seeing Loom Bands on sale. You may think I'm being a bit OTT here, but go out and see for yourself. They are everywhere, having exploded as this summer's big Kids Trend Thing. Also, much like Pokémon cards, Tamagotchis and … [Read more...]

A new robot kit that lets kids as young as 4 program a robot using wooden blocks hits Kickstarter – see the campaign, ending 29 June 2014, here … [Read more...]

Sickly Green Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle LEGO Sets are the best we’ve seen in ages

May 7, 2014 By Alex Milway

The new range of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle LEGO kits are out, and I can't help feeling these are far cooler and far more fun than the new film will ever be. The Turtles now have the means of flight and underwater travel, and as such they get great new outfits with nice little details. I think … [Read more...]

My favourite time-saving tips for new mothers

March 7, 2014 By Katie Lee

When I had my first child I couldn't understand how I would ever leave the house before midday again. Then I had my second child and wondered what the bloody hell we were playing at. Now we have to stop ourselves from getting to places before they're open. A few of my friends have had babies … [Read more...]

MERU – Cool hacks for kids with disabilities

December 14, 2013 By Jillian Boyd

The MERU Bugzi

There are plenty of gadgets out there, designed to help kids with disabilities and make their day to day life a bit easier. But what if you can't find what you're looking for anywhere else? Or what if you have a product, but need it modified to fit your kid's exact needs? Luckily, the people at … [Read more...]

Babyzen YOYO – a carry-on buggy that comes with lashings of smug

May 2, 2013 By Katie Lee

Babyzen YOYO Review

Once you've served your obligatory time hauling your new baby round in a giant travel wagon, it's time to park up the the 3-in-1 system and downsize to a more manoeuvrable stroller. The obvious choice is an umbrella-fold buggy – trusty Maclarens and the like – but now there's a more stylish and … [Read more...]

Meccano Gears of War: Centaur Tank. It’s a children’s toy for adults

March 15, 2013 By Alex Milway

Meccano has always been Lego's big brother, utilising screws, nuts and bolts, and the ever-useful Allen Key. This kit is no different, and benefits from moulded plastic sections, which allow the model to be a lot larger than a Lego set could ever be. And there's no doubting how cool this vehicle … [Read more...]

Stamptastic – the name stamp that works on everything

December 13, 2012 By Katie Lee

Stamptastic review

Time that I used to spend blowing my nose or epilating or poking at my cuticles with a paper clip (or any number of small-but-life-affirming body admin) is now cruelly taken from me by the never-ending need to write my daughter's surname on Tupperware with a Sharpie. Apparently, my salvation from … [Read more...]
