The new range of fun lifestyle accessories by Waldo Pancake this summer has been unleashed to us. Now, this is something I love! Waldo’s cheerfully coloured products are emblazoned with quirky and iconic messages, sure to catch the eye of passers by. Waldo states:-
“The great Waldo brings his brand of dry wit to as many products as he can be sarcastic about. Bold statement and retro feel is the form here.”
With a variety of products to choose from, you should easily find something that will make a great gift for him, for her or even yourself!
Within the beauty section, you will find an eye mask with the slogan “Does My Nose Look Big in This?” A make-up bag saying “Contents: My Face”; A ladies purse saying “May Contain Moths”; and even a compact mirror stating “This Is Not My Good Side”.
If you’re going on holiday or just on a short break this summer, let Waldo help brighten up journey. With fantastic bags for him or her all carrying the unique slogans. The shoulder bag for him says “Carrying Stuff Around is the New Leaving it Where it is”; and the passport holders and luggage tags ask “Are We Nearly There Yet?” You must be of the same opinion, it is rather cool!
The Waldo Pancake range also includes notebooks, coasters, key rings, pens, rulers and even an ‘upside-down mug design’. The range is available exclusively from Really Good, a publisher of amusing cards, gifts and lifestyle products. The Waldo Pancake range is available from http://www.reallygood.uk.com. Prices start from 99p. Enjoy looking!

The kids can sit for hours, drawing or doing their arts and craft on it. My two boys really love the new addition our garden. They will sit for ages, doodling away, which makes the table a huge bonus for the parents (because if your kids are anything like mine, they never sit still!).
Then, for extra entertainment, simply remove the centre wooden panel and the picnic table turns into a sandpit. How fantastic is that! The sand pit provides hours of fun for kids and encourage outdoor play and exercise. Let your kid’s creativity run wild, digging, building and making unique shapes in the sand.

Are you looking for something that will keep the kids busy this summer? Then Robert Dyas has the perfect solution for you: - a 6ft blue trampoline and enclosure.
Every child, without a doubt, will absolutely love this. They will want to get out first thing in the morning to bounce around, and will want to stay out as long as their little legs can hold them! And, do you know what that will result in? Yes, you got it, very tired little kiddies, who will drift of to sleep at night, without any arguments. A dream for many parents!
I was really excited when my trampoline arrived, as I knew my boys would just love it. It arrives in a flat pack, so you must build it yourself. I thought that this would be really difficult to do, but, was surprised when my other half and me got it assembled safely in just under an hour. The trampoline really is so easy to assemble, I think even a complete novice would have no difficulty with it. We assembled it in the evening when the boys were asleep, and they could not contain their excitement when they first saw it in the morning. I have never seen them get dressed and have their breakfast as fast, ever! They have so much fun on it, and you will be guaranteed to hear much laughter. The best sound in the world!
This Trampoline is sure to provide hours of fun for the kids all throughout the year. Not only this, but the trampoline is ideal for young children to increase their confidence gradually as they learn to trampoline, providing the most important exercise needed for them.
