Being a mother, I know all too well how annoying it is to put coats on and off babies in the colder months.  Most of the winter months are spent putting coats on babies and taking them off again, whist going from indoors to outdoors.  This is not only time consuming if your in a hurry (which most mums are!), but it is mostly disturbing for a baby, especially if they are asleep in the process of it all.  So, with thanks to Morrck, the ingeniously designed baby Hoodie has come to the rescue.

Morrck state:-

“The Baby Hoodie is a unique, hooded travel wrap, shaped to fit into a car seat or pushchair.  Slits allow safety harnesses to feed through the soft fleece, allowing you to strap your baby in and wrap the Hoodie around them when going into the cold, or fold back the layers when you’re somewhere warmer.  The Hoodie can also stay fitted to a car seat or pushchair and placed in the hold of a plane.”

Sounds good, doesn’t it!  Just think, your little precious baby can be as snug as a bug in a rug, move from place to place and all this with no interrupted sleep – a dream for all parents (and not forgetting the babies themselves).

Morrck have a range of Baby Hoodies available, in fact they have one for each season of the year!  These Baby Hoodies really will make great baby snuggle blankets for all babies.  They include:-

The Classic Baby Hoodie (£32.95) – This is the warmest one, offering a double layer of thick, cosy fleece.

The All Season Baby Hoodie (from £32.95) – This hosts one layer of fleece and another of 100% cotton jersey.  It is incredibly warm for the winter months.  In the summer months, the cool cotton layer means it is ideal for spring and autumn.  This particular one is an ideal choice for a new baby, making a fantastic newborn blanket.

Morrck also provide lightweight and ultra lightweight Hoodies for the summer months.  And, also the Morrganic Hoodie for all of us eco friendly people.  Check out http://www.morrck.com for their full range.

I have received a selection of products from CafePress and am impressed with them all.  From personalised tee shirts and bags, to badges and clocks, all can carry different slogans of you choice, making it very personal for the person you are buying it for.  I must admit, my new favourite item to wear now is their Hoodie.  It is incredibly comfortable and warm, and I am not surprised that the Hoodies are one of CafePress’s best sellers.  I highly recommend it.

I have come across the most wonderful online shop!  Bonprix has just launched itself in the UK, and they offer quality clothing and home items at unbelievable value-for-money prices.  Being one of Europe’s most successful online catalogue shopping brands, Bon prix UK gives us a vast range of fashion, shoes, accessories and lingerie that would suit all the family.

When I checked out Bonprix’s site, I honestly could not believe how cheap most of the items were.  I was completely amazed and can’t wait to order some things for myself (their boots are just fantastic)!  What I also liked, is the fact that they cater for all shapes and sizes - from sizes 6 through to 32; and these all cost the same, unlike many other catalogues which charge more for larger sizes!

There are 3 products that I really love and would like to share with you; the chunky knits (including a gorgeous jumper dress), beautiful lingerie and the Santa’s little helpers dress.

Making a great gift for a special lady in your life is Bonprix’s range of Chunky Knits.  They all look really stunning and flattering.  The Grey Jumper Dress (£32.90) is unbelievably comfortable to wear, not to mention extremely cosy!  I am sure the others within the range will be exactly the same.  This will make a super gift in the colder months, and just perfect for Christmas.

Now these I just Love!


image


These Converse Shark Design Pre walker Crib Shoe could possibly be the most adorable and cutest tiny baby Converse Shoe that I have ever seen.  They are just perfect for little feet, and will make you want to go out and buy a pair of converse for yourself!

Featuring an all over Shark design, it definitely adds the fun factor into helping your little one take their first steps.  The fastening on the shoe itself is with Velcro, which in my eyes makes it extra easy to slip the shoe on and off tiny, wriggling feet.  Made from canvas, with a leather toe cap, quality is written all over these converse.

I know that these will make a fantastically fabulous gift and that the parents would probably love them more than the child will.  Who wouldn’t want them?

Retails at £24.99, and is available from http://www.mummysonlinebabyshop.com.
