I was over at the Cath Kidston site checking something out for our latest nursery tour when this buggy caught my eye. Is there a product which hasn’t received the Cath Kidston treatment I wonder? This time it is the Maclaren Quest which has seen designers such as Lulu Guinness and Kate Spade rework the […]

BG is 2 Today!
I feel like a proud mama as I can hardly believe that my ‘other baby’, Bambino Goodies is two years old today! Woohoo! Inspired by my first daughter Saria, ‘the bambino’ and my fear that I’d drown in a sea of neutral, twee, and bad design, it’s come a long way since I wrote my […]
Phil and Teds Me Too Portable Highchair
I’ve been researching portable highchairs recently, not just for BG, but I’m at that stage of the pregnancy where I become fixated on the idea of buying something… So far we’ve been really lucky when we go out highchair wise, so I do wonder at whether blowing £75 on a portable highchair is ultra necessary. […]
Hot News! Stokke Launching Limited Edition Yellow Xplory and New Accessories Kits in Jan 09!
Natalie writes… My spidey senses were spot on when they ‘sensed’ that Stokke would be next in line to announce a limited edition or some new looks! In January, they will be releasing a limited edition yellow Xplory of which there will only be 180 for sale in the UK. They’ll only be available as […]
Cool Spot: When BG Went to New York
A couple of Friday’s ago, I took a sneak peek on Twitter when I should have been doing some work and couldn’t believe my eyes when I read a tweet inviting myself and ‘the bambino’, three year old Saria to New York to attend the US launch of the Kinect for Xbox which is released […]
Jellycat pinnypegs & liberty print bunnies
Baby 2 (Nia) was gifted with the floral cuteness that is Jellycat’s pinnypeg bunny – a chubby chiming toy that can be hung up by the loop in between its ears using the velcro fastening, so it can be secured to their bouncer, pram/pushchair, or cot. Part of their Jellykitten range of baby toys, she […]

Now we have a surprise one, with DwellStudio of the contemporary bedding, nursery accessories, and toys, meets Fisher Price, they of retro fantastic […]
10 Breastfeeding Essentials for £30 or Under
In theory all you need to breastfeed is a pair of breasts and a baby. In real life things don’t always work out that way and you may need a few bits and pieces to help you to start off on the right foot and to carry on for as long as possible. Here are […]
Concord Spin Highchair
Natalie writes… Buying a highchair is something that you can spend a lot of time agonising over, especially if you’re trying to balance style with function. The German designed Concord Spin highchair certainly aims to tick both of those boxes with the added bonus of being light enough to be portable too, so no need […]
The Hot Toy List for Christmas 2008
It’s been a busy few weeks chez bambino goodies because aside from tracking down our usual finds each days, we’ve been knee deep in research for toys for Christmas. I really dislike the toy lists that come out in mainstream press each year because they are so heavily commercial, with a big leaning towards TV characters, gadgetry and plastic.
Possible Future Purchase: The Bugaboo Bee
Well I actually love the look of it but I did try one out in my beloved John Lewis – I never thought I’d like this store but it’s so handy and you know I’m already addicted to Waitrose!… So yes it looks hot to trot, it’s compact, and whilst it’s not as light as the Nipi which is 6.4kg versus the Bugaboo Bee’s 7.7kg, I find very lightweight pushchairs are great for travelling and flinging in the boot but they aren’t the most robust and I can feel too much when I push them.
The great blanket selection
You can never have enough blankets and I have selected my favourite baby blankets whether you’re on the hunt for a gift, looking for one for your pram/pushchair, your cot, or something to multitask, there’s something here for you!… 80X80 £20.99 from Urchin Fleece Love Rug This va, va, voom red fleece blanket with a white heart pattern can be used as a picnic blanket, a snuggle blanket for your bambino, or thrown over their bed.
The Bugaboo Bee
Part of the reason why I didn’t buy a Bugaboo was because I found them a bit awkward, but if the description and the look of the Bugaboo Bee is anything to go by, I may be tempted into one. I own my beloved Quinny Buzz but ever since I bought a lightweight stroller (The […]
My Newborn Favourite Things
My bambino is 24 weeks and in that time I have brought and tried out a lot of stuff and I have finally compiled my favourites. Grobag Swadling Blanket Some people don’t understand the need to buy specific swaddlers but after attempting to do it with an ordinary blanket and making a pigs ear out […]
