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. You find this easier during the day, but to save costs it is common practice to switch off the heating during the night. Sometimes you can go to bed when it is cold, and often you will wake up during the night sleep cold and uncomfortable. A heated mattress topper can warm up your bed before you go to sleep giving you a more comfortable start to your night and it can keep you warm through the night.

Disney Marvel Interactive Website

I am a big Marvel fan, and have been since I was little, thus, it is great my kids are Marvel fans too, as now I get to share this love with them. My favourite has always been X-Men, even before the films were made, I remember watching the cartoon on Saturday mornings.  Jacob's favourite is the Hulk, then Captain America and Lewis likes them all (he buys the comics).
