Chicco Rainbow Cube and a Happy Moment

Last week baby Dude was sent a gorgeous blue rainbow cube by the lovely people at Chicco. Chicco are a well known and trusted baby and parent brand and I'm sure 99% of parents either own or have used some of their products, which range from car seats and high chairs to toys and buggies.

The rainbow cube is a gorgeous little projector which lights up your choice of stars, hearts, clouds and kites or a plain night light in you choice of colours onto your babies nursery wall to help them drift off. You can also choose to play the accompanying melodies, or not, which include a "sounds of nature" rainforest frog noise, our particular favourite. Honey dances around to the songs as soon as I put it on in the mornings, not that she needs an excuse to try and grab the spotlight, so even toddlers can benefit! This is a great little toy, especially as baby Dude is yet to find his thumb (not through lack of trying), it keeps him entertained while I try and sneak an extra 10 minutes in bed. In fact just looking at the dreamy projections above makes me feel like having a quick snooze.... 

Details

This clever new projector concept allows you to select the projection images with different individual colours to taste, or multi-colour changing effect, creating a sort of colour therapy atmosphere at bedtime.
The cube can be turned over to place the favoured projection in that specific direction: upwards, to left or right! 3 different styles one on each side: hearts, kites and clouds or stars - with plain nightlight projection on the 4th side. Each projection style can be used singularly in one of the 7 different colours or in the constantly changing multi-colour option. 3 styles of melodies accompany the light show: classical, ambient and the sounds of nature. A soft “first dreams” character face can be seen on one side, so baby can see its favourite bedtime friend as he drifts off into the world of dreams!

You can buy these lovely little rainbow cubes (they also come in pink) plus more here.

I must also mention Chicco's genius "Happy Moments" experience booklets which rewards you with four experiences such as family days out or pampering sessions worth £100 when spending a minimum of £29 on Chicco. A complete bargain and treats the whole family at the same time as making a very happy baby. You can find out more at chiccohappymoments.co.uk

Excuse me while I sneak off for a spot of free reflexology....

Napmit Baby Bows

Please excuse the unbrushed hair, Honey had got a bit hot at soft play!!

I was sent these two glorious hair bows for Honey a couple of weeks ago, one everyday blush pink one and one cream to go with her flower girl dress. They are so beautiful. Handmade by a very clever mummy who couldn't find quality hair accessories for her god-daughter. She filled the gap with these, they come in a rainbow of colours to go with everything and also come in baby or toddler size. They are made with the finest Grosgrain ribbon, which covers the clip also so as not to pull or catch on baby's hair, which is a must and gorgeous packaging. You must check them out!

Review - Waitrose Baby Bottom Butter

Last week I purchased my first (yes I know a little behind the times) pot of Waitrose' sell-out Baby Bottom Butter, but to be fair I didn't have a baby to pretend to buy it for before now, and when ordering it on Ocado, is always out of stock, grrr. Anyway, sneakily pretending I had bought it to smooth and pamper Honeys bot, I have been secretly slathering it on my face on an evening. It is divine I'm not going to lie. It is light and smooth to the touch, uber pure (only four ingredients including olive oil, vanilla and camomile oil), not at all heavy and sinks in to leave my skin feeling plump and youthful, perfect now winter is just round the corner. At £2.49 it really is a bargain and feels like a heavenly little secret I have been let in on now I am in the mummy club. Oh and it does also keep Honeys bottom in tip top shape when the sudocrem has run out!
