Lego Friends Review and Give Away.

April 28, 2012

The first I heard of the new Friends Lego was via facebook and American based bloggers, in uproar because of the way this product was being marketed. I read a few posts and I had to agree, without having seen the product, the idea that this was ‘just for girls’ and that Lego had to [...]

Lets Build Lego! – Lego Building Competition and Give Away.

April 3, 2012

My kids adore Lego. I adore Lego. Lego is bordering on some kind of magic in our house. Lego is something all three of my big kids can do together, and it engages them all for a long time. Not only that, but when they play Lego they seem to magically become nice to each [...]

What Would You Put in Your Dream Bathroom?

September 5, 2011

Jump Start Virtual World for Kids – Review

August 24, 2011

Someone (who shall remain nameless), gave my girls some small pieces of expensive plastic rubbish, and along with these tiny creatures came an invitation to play in an online world. The game was fun in the very beginning, but it quickly became apparent to me that it was all about sucking in my children. The [...]
