Buggied Out Badge Design Winners!
On Sunday at Buggied Out we asked the little-legged attendees to design a summer-themed badge to match the glorious day of sunshine we had in Brighton. We had loads of fabulous entries, and, after some careful deliberation, picked these four as the winners. Amazing, aren’t they? Winners, you have been emailed, if your email address was provided. We have […]
BG Goes to… Hampton Court Palace
My name is Lu and I live with a seven-year-old history nut. I think it started when we visited Rome last summer, then he did the Great Fire of London at school (they made replicas of the capital’s 1666 buildings out of cardboard, arranged them on sand- then burned the lot!), and since that he’s been […]
Inspiration: Alfie’s awesome Lego party
There’s probably more Lego in our house than any other single thing, so when I asked Alfie what sort of party he’d like for his 7th birthday I was pretty sure what the answer would be. I decided to do everything myself this year rather than hiring an entertainer, so we booked our usual hall, […]
Muddy Creatures
I loved the concept behind Muddy Creatures as soon as I heard about it. They offer a carefully curated box of Scandinavian childrenswear direct to your door, saving you the hassle of pounding the pavements or trawling the web. All you have to do is sign up on the website, enter details about your child: […]
Giveaway: over £150 worth of aden + anais muslin goodies
Have we got an amazing giveaway for you? Yes, we have! One of our all-time favourite buys for babies is the aden + anais swaddle – we have loads at home, and, even though my babies are big now they still prove useful as picnic rugs, superhero capes, impromptu blankets or shawls on unexpectedly chilly summer evenings […]
BG Goes to… Dreamland
Anyone who knows me will know that I can’t stand theme parks – I don’t have a head for heights and, despite living in Brighton, the heady combination of candy floss and plinky plonky fairground music has never really done it for me. So, it was with some trepidation that we set off for Dreamland Margate […]
Loving: Meri Meri Lion Dress Up Kit
Whether you’ve got a wannabe Simba, Nala, Alex or Raa Raa, they’re going to love this fabulous dress up lion mane. Perfect for an animal-themed party, World Book Day, the dressing up box, or as a gift. It’s made from wool and felt and comes with a bright orange ribbon tie. We’re huge fans here, and it’s a steal at £13. All together […]
British Science Week: Science magazines for children
It’s a bit of a coincidence but Alfie and Kitty both have subscriptions to science magazines at the moment. Alfie received a gift subscription to the brilliant Whizz Pop Bang! from his grandparents at Christmas and, in the interests of fairness (big deal in our house) I signed Kitty up for Okido as she’s really […]
Cotton Twist pirate crafts
If you’re having a pirate party for your little one, or even if you’re just in need of small craft kits to keep the kids entertained (I bought a load for all the children at a recent family wedding and they loved them) then make Cotton Twist your first port of call. My favourite is […]

Covetable: Watercolour Cactus Wallpaper
Isn’t this watercolour succulent beautiful? This cactus mural will look stunning as a focal wall – it measures in at 100 x 108in, comprising four 25in panels for easy installation.

Hot on the high street: H&M jungle duvet cover
You can never go far wrong with good old H&M and their current children’s room collection ticks a lot of boxes with its  jungle/wild/safari theme. You’ll find plush animal heads for wall mounting, metal animal silhouette bookends and print cushions, towels and storage boxes. We’re loving this duvet cover set, £19.99, featuring a menagerie of […]
Ethel & Co initial plates
So much love for these funky decorative initial plates from Ethel & Co, £19.95. A great gift for a new arrival or a birthday, you can choose from nine different colourways or create your own personal palette. While you’re on the site, check out the brilliant artwork – I’m coveting the astronaut and La Luna […]
The Story Corner: The Bear and the Piano
Sticking with last week’s bear theme for The Story Corner, we have Kitty’s absolute current favourite (and mine too). The Bear and the Piano by David Litchfield (Frances Lincoln, RRP £6.99) is a charming tale of friendship and the power of music. It’s a lovely story about a bear who learns to play the piano […]
Free Printable: 3D Alphabet & Numbers
I am on a mission to sort the little mans room out, and while on the hunt for some coolness for his walls, I stumbled across the 3D alphabet and numbers templates from the ever fabulous Mr Printables. The letters are based on a 3D styled font which renders itself perfectly to be made into actual […]

Imagine Festival at Southbankhas a brilliant selection of events – make an instrument and play in the junk orchestra, jump […]
Sally Nencini Baby Monkey
Continuing with our day of Year of the Monkey-themed posts, how about this adorable little fellow by Sally Nencini. He comes in five different colours, is handmade from lambswool in Norfolk and will cost you £16. Lovely baby gift – can just imagine him cheerfully perched on a nursery shelf.
Hot on the high street: Boden Florasaurus tunic
Ok, so it’s got a few flowers on it, but Boden’s dinosaur-print tunic, from £19.50, is a step in the right direction for the high street. There’s such a lack of dino-themed clothing for girls – yes, of course, they can buy from the boys’ section, but why should they have to? – so hopefully this […]
