Doodlebread is a fantastic set, easy to use and containing everything you need to make bread like no one else’s. Shapes run right through each slice!
I like to shut me and the boys in the kitchen every Sunday morning, mainly to give my better half a lie-in, but also to get creative. We normally end up covered and surrounded by flour with some strange cookie like substance, which is sometimes edible!

The Paperpod Rocket from the fantastic Nigel’s Ecostore is a flat packed, recycled bundle of fun.
With all the eco issues the world is having to contend with, it is refreshing to see a product made from recyclable materials. The Cardboard rocket is awesome, it stands nearly 2 metres tall when erect and can be used by toddlers to 7 year olds. The cardboard itself is tough enough to withstand the most boisterous of play – it survived my son’s joint birthday party, so it has been through a rigorous testing procedure!
This can be purchased from Nigels Eco Store for £29.99. This represents great value for something that can be used again and again – it folds flat after use.
Being cardboard, it comes ready to decorate, which the kids will just love. An innovative, unique and exciting gift, typical of Nigels eco store.
The 6 in 1 Solar toy, or Powerplus Chameleon as it is also known is a really nice bit of educational fun.
The set comes with many different pieces, in the style of Airfix. Pop the parts out and use the easy to follow instructions to make 6 different models. These are snap together, so the kit can be used again and again.
When the solar unit that is built into each model has contact with the sun, the model comes to life. You can make a windmill, plane, boat, puppy, revolving plane and car. I think that this is the perfect gift for the difficult to buy for 8 – 12 age group. I also think that this is something that parent and child could really benefit and enjoy doing together.
When you consider the alarming rate of climate change, Just how important is this solar toy? Inspirational, educational and most importantly, Fun.
This Madara Natural Beauty Kit makes for an absolutely perfect pressie this Christmas for the wife, sister, mother of friend. The products are gorgeous and inside this pack you get a bottle of Flower Dust Moisturising Lotion and the Moonkissed Lipgloss.
The moisturising lotion is some of the finest we’ve tried (and we’ve tried a few!), but what really makes this such a great pressie is not only the gorgeous packaging BUT the pricepoint which is a very reasonable £31.50.
This is a truly quality gift set and if you want to buy go to the Free To Explore Beauty website.
