As you all know we love BRIO in this house. L has an amazing BRIO collection that he uses with his railway set and also just in general small world play. They get used a lot, so we were really happy to be able to review the BRIO Airplane.
To celebrate their launch in WHSmith travel stores I’ve teamed up with Indie Bay for a very yummy competition. You could win a whole box of Indie Bay Pretzel Bites. Best yet, if you win you’ll get to choose which one of the delicious flavours you want your box to be.
Indie Bay are aimed at parents, supposedly to feed the snacks to their kids, however, I have purposefully misunderstood this and delved into the samples I was sent. L hardly got a look in! They are Yum.

I’m writing this on the last day of half term, I’ve just finished crying for the third time today, I’m really sad he’s going back to school but all my social accounts seem to be full of people celebrating the end of the holidays.

Stories just like Donata’s.
To celebrate the launch of Zuru’s 5 Surprise Series 2 L was sent a fabulous bundle of Zuru toys to enjoy over Half Term.
5 Surprise is a ball, split into 5 segments, a bit like an orange. Each segment is sealed and contains a different toy. It’s like a surprise egg with extra toys and no chocolate!
