Teletubbies Magazine Review

Boy reading Teletubbies magazine by Somoene's Mum

The Teletubbies have been the subject of a fair bit of criticism in their time – both in the original series and their new incarnation. But there is one reason I will always love them; for those twenty-eight or so minutes, both my children are completely mesmerised. I can have a hot drink or load… Read More

JORD Watches – Review and Giveaway

JORD Men's Wooden Watch Delmar dark sandalwood and blue carbon

For us, autumn is a season when time suddenly becomes much more pressing in our lives. During the Summer holidays, the days blur into one another. Saturdays and Wednesdays have the same feel and atmosphere, the same activities; the days tumble into one another, indistinguishable. Then, all at once, we are back on a tight schedule –… Read More

Strive Footwear Review

I’ve always struggled terribly with my feet. I can honestly say I have never put on a pair of shoes that didn’t hurt – at least a little bit, and at least for a few weeks, while I ‘wore them in’. I have extremely high arches and, as a result, I just haven’t ever been… Read More

HappyCalc Maths Puzzle from FunComet – Review

HappyCalc Elementary Maths Puzzle by Someone's Mum

The HappyCalc Elementary Maths Puzzle from FunComet has a really imaginative and innovative design. Unlike traditional puzzles, where there is a fixed picture, children can construct their own mammoth space station, in hundreds of combinations, with no set pattern or size. And, unlike some educational toys, the maths is absorbed almost as a secondary consequence of building… Read More

Education Quizzes by Someone's Mum

I was recently invited to take a look at Education Quizzes’ huge range of revision quizzes which span all age ranges and subjects.

M&Co Summer Outfits and Discount Code

Girl in M&Co dress by Someone's Mum

I had never heard of M&Co until I moved to Tewkesbury, where the branch is the main place to buy clothes for both adults and children in the town. At first I was a little disappointed at the lack of other clothing shops around, as I had never heard of it, but as soon as… Read More

Review and Giveaway – Kidloland Nursery Rhyme App

Small girl and boy using Kindle to view nursery rhyme app

I was recently invited by Kidloland to try their nursery rhyme app, aimed at the under-fives. Since both my children fit into that age bracket and they both love nursery rhyme videos, I jumped at the chance. Kidloland have also kindly given me some three-month subscriptions to the app to give away to five lucky readers.… Read More
