Munchkin White Hot safety spoons - Review -

I thought it was time for me to blog again with a product review. This time we've been using the White Hot Safety Spoons by Munchkin. It's currently the Baby Event at our local Asda and they had  a 4 pack for £2 so, I picked a pack up to try them out - plus Noah needed some new spoons.

The first thing I noticed about the spoons where there super long handles, I really wasn't sure how Noah would manage trying to feed himself with them being so long. But on the packaging it advised that there suitable from 3 months + - I can honestly say he's managed really well using them and I have found them easier also. The are all very brightly coloured and the spoon part is super soft and flexible for gums. But here's the smart part about them, the spoon part of them change's colour when in hot foods (or liquids such as gravy / watery home made custard) - which I thought was really good! When the colour disappear's from the spoon, this is a indication that the food is too hot. Which is pretty smart. Of course I still check his food even when the colour hasn't all gone from the spoon just to be sure. But over all I think it's a good idea especially if your on the go and just not sure if the foods still hot, even when its been left to cool slightly. The colour does return to the spoon once the food cooled down.

So, I really do like these and I think there a good idea! Here's a link to their on - line shop.

I've got photos below of the spoons in use but this is with hot water (just as a demo so you can see what happens to them.)

Loyalty clubs/ vouches/ coupons and offers. My top picks.

 I found that through out my pregnancy I was handed lots of leaflets more of which was in the bounty packs (along with lots of samples to try!) I found some clubs didn't give you anything apart from spam to email and junk mail through the letterbox! 

So, seems as having children and a baby is so expensive I thought id write a blog about which are my bests companies to join that have been really rewarding and I would recommend to other parents.

 So here are my top ones which have never stopped giving! 

Cow&Gate baby club - I signed up to this when I was pregnant with Rowan! There's a fabulous  on - line community and also on - line chat option with professionals for help / advice. When I was pregnant I got the little cuddle cow, pregnancy diary and lots of helpful information through the post. When I started weaning the boys I also received lots of coupons for the different Jar's of baby food and breakfast cereals! I also received a weaning plan too with recipe ideas in. Which all came in handy and I saved a small fortune! 

Pampers Nappies - I'm sure with these a sent back a slip in the post and they now send me coupons for pampers nappy's You can only claim these coupons at Tesco stores, but still a little bit of a money saver over time!

Johnson baby wipes (( baby club)) -  On the packs of baby wipes is a code which you type into their web site (www.johnsonsbaby.co.uk) You get points for the different codes  ( I think its 5 points per pack of wipes) - once you have so many points you can swap them for baby things such as books, and even baby swimming lessons ( See Picture below.) Iv just recently found this baby club when I actually reading the side of the wipes (which iv never done). I've recently hit points needed to get a gift so ill update how it was and what was sent out to me later. This is more of a loyalty scheme then coupons etc but I thought it was worth giving it a mention.

Boots Parenting Club - I LOVE this one! It's definitely a favourite with me. I got asked to join the baby club while in-store (after I had Noah). I thought id give it a go I can honestly say it's been really good! I got a free baby changing bag when I purchased some pampers nappies. I got double points for my advantage card and I receive all sorts of vouches through the post including 25% off the mini mode clothing and buy one get one free on wipes ((boots own brand))! This has been great and the dates on the vouchers last a while so there plenty of time to get products. I can honestly say I wish I knew about this club when pregnant!

So these are my top ones! ((So far)) If anyone else knows of any-more please message me and ill join up and add them in here!

Thanx for reading

Munchkin Baby Fresh Food feeder. REVIEW

A lot of you who follow me on social media sites have seen a picture of Noah enjoying some fresh fruit from a feeder, a lot of people have asked about this so I thought I'd write a honest review about it. Now Noah is 7 months old. We've started to wean him. Things are going well and he seems to be enjoying trying different foods.
I was in Sainsburys a few weeks ago and came across these Munchkin Fresh fruit feeders for a couple of pounds. I thought i'll give it a go! I can honestly say it's been great. You pop any fruit or veg (at the moment I'm trying really juicy fruit such as watermelon.) There's a clasp on it that clips and then you give it to baby and they suck or check it through the netting! There's a little handle on the top of the lid that they can hold (or you.) Noah has really enjoyed it. He wont hold it though (lazy boy.) There's also a outer plastic pot so you can fill the netting pop the pot/cover on and take out it and about with you. So its great for when your on the go. Up to now Noah has enjoyed - Grapes,watermelon and orange! No big peace's has came through the netting and I've had no issues with it at all. In fact I think its a very good idea and Noah loves it (he gets excited when he sees the fruit being copped and me popping it into the netting!)
I have done a quick Google search on it and found it widely available on the net for around the same price I paid.
Here is there main web page -http://www.munchkin.com/?source=global
