Last week the children and I drove down to Southampton to meet with the very lovely folk from Save the Children, along with some other bloggers and their children, to take part in a special Muddy Puddle Walk. Save the Children are a fantastic charity who believe that every child should have the chance to learn, play and grow up happy and healthy - no matter where they're born. Peppa Pig's Muddy Puddle Walk for Save the Children is an annual fundraising event which raises money for the international children's charity. Last year 160,000 children across the UK took part and raised an incredible £243,000. This year, the charity hopes to raise even more!

I'm a sucker for a good subscription box, especially beauty boxes! Wildling Box is a new lifestyle subscription box with a difference. Wildling's founder, Leilah, wanted to come up with a way of raising awareness of the cruelty that animals suffer from around the world, along with helping people discover the best cruelty-free brands around. As a  beauty-obsessed vegan, this sounded perfect for me, and I was lucky to receive a Wildling Box to review.

Back in my pre-baby days I'd get excited about new shoe deliveries. Nowadays, it's the arrival of a new pushchair that gets me all giddy! The Diono Quantum Classic is based on the best-selling original Diono Quantum travel system. The new version has a range of updates to suit all parents and Diono kindly sent us one to review. We've really been putting it through its paces over the last few weeks and here's how we got on with it!

My children and I love our visits to Willows Activity Farm in Hertfordshire and were so egg-cited (I'm sorry, I couldn't resist!) to be invited along last weekend to see what they've got planned for their Easter Eggstravaganza this year! The boys were SO excited; the "Peter Rabbit farm", as they call it, is one of their favourite places to go for a day out and they were counting down the days to our trip! Especially when we heard that new for 2018 Mr Tod will be taking residence at Willows with the introduction of Mr Tod’s Lair and the Super Secret Squirrel Nutkin Test.

Essie has really become such a curious and inquisitive little girl recently, and with her newfound skills of pulling herself up to standing and cruising furniture, she is able to get about and explore anything that catches her eye. Which is usually the kitchen cupboards! Fisher-Price have launched a new product which seemed perfect for this stage of Essie's development: their 2-in-1 Sit-To-Stand Activity Centre, and they kindly sent us one to review.

One of the nursery items I was most excited about using with Essie was the SnüzPod 3-in-1 Bedside Crib, which was kindly sent to me to review along with some beautiful Snüz bedding and accessories. Like with my two older children, I was keen to have Essie sleep close to me so that the night feeds would be a little easier and I would hopefully get a bit more rest in between feeds.

Nappy rash is something that affects a lot of babies and toddlers, with up to a third experiencing it at any one time. My children have generally been lucky and very rarely suffer with nappy rash, but all three have had it a handful of times. Teething, being poorly or being in a nappy for a long time (such as night-time) seem to have been the main causes of soreness with my brood - and eating blueberries!

Can you believe that in just over six weeks it will be Essie's first birthday? It will also be my birthday, but I expect that Essie will totally take all the birthday glory from now on. And that is absolutely fine with me! It does feel like only yesterday that my little lady arrived, and you might  Annie Haak sent a delicate little silver bracelet with the initial E and a baby girl charm to celebrate Essie's birth.
