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.

#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.

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?

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!)
