The Social Journey with Mrs Wordsmith

I love subscription boxes and you can honestly get them for almost anything nowadays. The latest one we are reviewing is for baby girl. It’s an educational box for illustrated word learning by Mrs Wordsmith. We are reviewing the younger of the two, The Social Journey for ages 2-5 years. The older box is called The Narrative Journey and that’s for ages 6-13 years.

What is The Social Journey?

It’s about giving your children the opportunity to develop social and emotional intelligence with the right words, hilariously illustrated by the Hollywood artists behind Madagascar.

Puppy Dog Pals Toy Collection Review

Ever since my daughter discovered Puppy Dog Pals on Disney Jr she has been slightly obsessed. She goes around humming and singing the theme tune and is totally mesmerised by the pups. Both of us were a tiny bit excited to get the chance to have a peek at some of the new Puppy Dog Pals toy collection from Flair/Just Play.

Puppy Dog Pals is a preschool cartoon and is all about brothers Bingo and Rolly, two pug puppies who have fun travelling around their neighborhood and the world when their owner Bob leaves home. They also have a cat sister figure named Hissy, and a robot dog named Automatic Doggy Robotic Friend or A.R.F.

Speck iPhone Case Review and Giveaway

Iphone’s are expensive smartphones and the majority of us own one. As the design of iPhone’s have changed over the years they have gone from quite a thick phone to now slim in design and quite fragile. Being a busy mum I need a tough case on my phone to protect it from being thrown – yes the toddler does throw it at times, to being dropped. I have accidentally dropped it many a time while getting the kids in the car. Each time I’ve picked it from the pavement I’ve winced incase the screen has shattered.

Speck iPhone Case Review

Along came Speck with their highly protective phone cases that feature stylish and slim designs, asking me if I would like to try one of their cases out. Of course I need one, so it’s some at the right time, as my old one has seen many a better day.
