Big M loves dancing. She rarely sits still, and will often ask for music to be put on to jump on the bed dance to. About a year ago I looked around for dance classes near our home, but found they were either stage schools (um, no…) or not suitable for children under the age [...]

A few weeks back I was asked by Regis Hair Salons to help them launch the new face of Regis. They gave me a hair cut as a thank you. Given my hair is wild at the best of times, and I haven’t had the time to get it cut for AGES, I leapt at [...]

We have been fans of Justin Fletcher for a while now. Way back when Big M was a baby and we were starting signing we watched Mr Tumble to help us learn new signs. If I’m honest, we never really got on with Gigglebiz, but we are mahoosive fans of the new Justin’s house on [...]

A few weeks ago I received an email from Photobox asking me to review one of their photo diaries or photo calendars. We don’t have a calendar at home, mostly because we forget to look at/write on it. Mr TOPP and I both have calendars on our phones that are linked to each other so we [...]

This is a sponsored post. Everyone knows that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Even me. In the tiddlyompompom household we are creatures of habit. Mr TOPP has muesli, I have crunch, Big M loves her some cheerios and Little M is a weetabix girl through and through. When Plum asked me [...]

A few weeks ago I was sent a gumigem teething necklace to review. The teething necklace is the brain child of Jenny McLaughlan. The necklaces are made from silicone and strung on a waxed cotton cord. They are BPA, lead and pthalate free and meet the same standard as other teething items. Gumigem teething necklaces are [...]

A few weeks ago, photobox contacted me and asked me to review one of their photo gift ideas. Initially I was going to go for a photo book, but then I decided I would see how the canvas prints turned out. I signed up for an account (very easy), uploaded my photo (again, easy) and [...]

When I was offered a copy of the cbeebies song time album to review how could I say no? I couldn’t. So I didn’t. Obviously. Our grumpy post lady popped the song time album through the letter box last week, just as we were about to go out. She didn’t look impressed as we squealed [...]

Last week Simple Safety Solutions sent me a Cuddledry Cuddlemoo toddler towel to try. The towel has a hood and is a cute brown/cream cow pattern. It even has ears! Ahem. The label says it is suitable from walking to three years old. Big M is not 3 until February. She’s tall for her age [...]

A few weeks ago, Louise from RockBabyWorld asked twitter if there were any ZingZilla fans out there. Umm, hello. Big M is a huge fan – she swings/jumps/leaps on things like “ZingZillas doos it” and Panzee is her style guru. So Louise sent me Big M a copy of the ZingZilla’s album to review. Big M [...]
