Mum In The Madhouse - Parenting without stabilisers

I am introducing a new feature on The Mad House.  Each month we are lucky enough to get sent things to review or just use things that really float our boat.  So I am introducing a monthly round up.  Some things will have links to larger posts, somethings might not.  I will always disclose if an item has been received as a free sample or we have attended an event.

Mr Men Sports Day – We love, love , love this book.  Go buy it now, it is only £2.99 – Review based on a free sample

Huntfun – Looking to turn a walk in to an adventure, then look no further. Huntfun produce treasure hunts, including the one we reviewed on A Thrifty Mum – Review based on a free sample

London Globee – We were sent the London Globee from Find me a gift.com.  We were sent the larger one, which retails at £30 and as you can see from Mini’s face above, he loved it.   It has pride of place in his London themed Bedroom and he was delighted to see it had the Olympic stadium on it.  I have to say I was really impressed with Find me a gift.  They have a great selection of gifts at very reasonable prices and there delivery was prompt too – review based on free sample

Whilst we are on bedrooms, Then please take a look at Maxi’s patriotic bedroom, which is courtesy of Dunelm Mill.  What I can say is we have had these products for a couple of months now and the duvets wash really well and the rug is wonderful, bright and spills clean off really well – review from free samples

Look What We Found – Normally I do not approve of ready meals, but these are wonderful, no additives, no preservatives and they taste great too.  They got us though my no cooking time with the broken arm – review based on a free sample

Ribena Plus – Like Ribena, but with added goodies.  The boys seemed to enjoy it and have asked for more – review based on a free sample

Kitchen Canny – I do not have a lot of kitchen waste, but this is a brill product for those looking to steamline their food bill.  Plan B has a great couple of post on it – free sample received

Return my Ted – A perfect gift for a new baby, full review is on the Great Toy Guide – We were sent a sample, but sent it on to the NSPCC

Journey 2 – What with all this rain, this movie has not been off the TV.  Guess that speaks pretty much for itself! My full review can be found on The Great Toy Guide – review based on a free sample

I have always said that I am not keen on a lot of the boys clothes out there, but we loved out selection from Verbaudet this month.   Fantastic three in one trousers, which have washed well and the boys love.  We also reviewed swimming trunks and they have adjustable waists making them perfect for skinny minnies like Maxi – review from free sample
