#ad If you're travelling this Christmas and want a #ad If you're travelling this Christmas and want an extra bit of peace of mind that your bags and belongings are safely where they should be along the way, then take a look at the Allround Finder tracker from @paj_gps_global.

You can use these nifty little devices to track so many different things and they're brilliantly lightweight and the perfect size to pop in a bag or pocket.

If you want to know a bit more about it then you can read my full review over on the blog!
#Ad #gifted We were recently sent some amazing to #Ad #gifted 
We were recently sent some amazing toys from @bandaiuk for the children, including these dress designing kits.

Nerys and I have had so much fun with these, using the different pieces of fabric and accessories to design lots of outfits.

The only question is, how can we go about getting some of them made into actual lifesize dresses?!
This is a question I'm trying to ask myself more o This is a question I'm trying to ask myself more often - what will I do this week to bring a little bit more joy into my life?

So I'm putting the same question out there to you! 

If you've got a bad case of the Mondays (complete with chainsaw bear!) then take a few minutes to think about what little things you can do this week to make things a bit more fun and enjoyable.

Who's with me?!
I'm really looking forward to some family time ove I'm really looking forward to some family time over the Easter holidays (and keeping my fingers crossed for some nice sunny days to head out for some walks!)

Have your children already finished for the term or have they got a few more days left like my two?
