Join me for #Mums4Tommys Twitter Party and Win!

Do you love a good Twitter Party? You know we do...and we’re excited to host a party about caring for your baby's skin and clothes. On Tuesday, 26th August at 1pm BST, please join us for the #Mums4Tommys Twitter Party where we’ll be discussing how to choose the best laundry detergent and fabric conditioner for your baby's clothes and skin, and giving you a chance to win prizes!

Having suffered with sensitive skin all my life and now having two children who seen to have inherited this affliction, I am really conscious of what comes into contact with our our skin. I try to buy mainly organic cotton clothing these days which I find really makes a difference and there seems to be much less irritation. It's not just the materials that touch our skin that matter though, but also what we wash these fabrics in. As well as wanting to protect the clothes that I buy and enable them to look fresh and new for longer, I want them to be soft and comfortable against my children's delicate skin. By washing with Persil Non Bio and Comfort Pure Fabric Softener I know that or family's skin will be protected from irritants and our clothes will be clean and soft.

I'm delighted to be co-hosting #Mums4Tommys Twitter Party on SoFabChat supporting Tommy's baby charity.

64/365 A very cute cloth botty!

I recently gave in and finally purchased the owl print pop in from Close Parent that I have been lusting after for ages and after a few pre - washes tonight is it's first wear! It's very cute and adds to the huge collection of pop in's within our stash including some old style pastel bamboo's that we bought pre-loved two years ago and are still going strong, some minkee brights that are really quick to dry and of course some of the other prints including monkey's and turtles! 

When we made the decision to use cloth full time on our daughter when she was a few months old I went in search of the ideal night time nappy for her and after trial and error with a few different types we finally found Close Parent pop in's and have never looked back. If you're not familiar with them why not check out their website www.closeparent.com and if you like what you see you are just in time to help celebrate their fifth birthday this week. The are holding a twitter party tomorrow (Wednesday) at 2pm and you are invited! You can even download some exclusive pop in print bunting here.

#junglejunctiontoyparty

 

Mummies! Do you have a jungle junction fan? I have two! I have to say despite the very catchy theme tune that sticks in your head long after Disney Junior has been tuned off (Yes I admit I have been caught humming it in work on occasion!) it's one of my favourite kids shows at the moment. My little ones are entranced by the bright colours and characters and the stories are cute and really hold their attention. As with any popular kids show there is a great range of toys for your little ones to play with at home and recreate their favourite moments, we reviewed some a while ago and they are still regularly played with. As Christmas is approaching Flair have some fabulous new playsets coming out, and to celebrate the launch www.ukmums.tv have invited myself and 14 other lovely bloggers to host a a jungle junction party next Tuesday, we have received a box full of toys, activities and games for our children and their friends to enjoy and we will be tweeting all about them!  And the best thing is that you can join in too! Just follow @ukmumstv and the hashtah #junglejunctiontoyparty on twitter between 4pm and 6pm on 18th September! There will be lots of fun activities and some great freebies to be won! See you there...

I'm also trying to thing of some yummy jungle junction themed food ideas for make for our arty so if you have any suggestions please share them below...   thanks!
