Colours Colours Everywhere
Summer loves colours, learning different colours, learning and associating each colour with an object or animal. And, Summer loves books, so what a great combination Colours Colours Everywhere is, and I knew it would be popular with her. She loves it when I read to her, but if a book is more interactive, that is so much more fun.

3 Benefits of Sleeping with a Heated Mattress Topper
During the cold months, we like our home to feel as warm and comfortable as possible.

Seagull Splat
hey kids find it extremely funny, lots of laughter and screams of delight when the poop does land, or if you are lucky and there is no poop, then there is a sigh/giggle.
