Chalkola – chalk pens and board (AD)

One of the first things we did during lockdown was draw rainbows on our windows- I just wish we had Chalkola pens when we did.

They’re great to be creative with- be in on a chalk board, in the garden or on the windows.

We love the huge range of colours from chalkola (not just for kids- they do a huge range of products, great for creative adults too).

We were gifted this wonderful set of 30 pens by Chalkola; and I’m chuffed with them, I’ll definitely be buying more.

Both me and Dot find these easy to use (pump tip) and Dot loves drawing pictures of her family on the chalkboard and the windows. We’ve only had them a few weeks and have done so much with them- we’ve had fun creating play scenes on Dots curvy board from Young and Learning – shops, flower gardens and vets; and they wipe clean very quickly and easily.

Chalkola pens are great for:

– writing/ drawing on a chalk board

– being creative on windows or mirrors

– can be used on other no porous surfaces; be creative- we love creating play set up on our curvy board (balance board)

– mummy can ‘borrow’ for shopping list writing on a kitchen chalkboard

– paint a wall or door in the playroom with black board paint for the kids to go wild

The 30 pack on pens we have is £28.95 and the board £19.95

Familido Air Stroller Review

We were so excited to win the Familido Air Stroller (black panda) From Baby Lurve- Shop- market Harborough and online in their ‘test and treat competition’

This stroller is super compact and lightweight- we’ve been looking for a smaller option so this is perfect. It sets up and collapses with just one hand (clever little squeeze and slide on the handle), so can be done whilst holding your toddlers hand or shopping.

It’s full reclining with a nice big hood so perfect for naps. It’s also lovely for summer as has two netted ventilation holes.

The stroller comes with a rain cover and also a handy storage/carry bag. To give you an idea of collapsed size; it easily fits in the foot well by Dorothea’s car seat. It’s also just over 5kg.

I’d definitely recommend this stroller for when you’re ready to move on from your large pram/buggy (although it is suitable from birth). I’m so pleased we’ve won this, I wish we’d discovered it about a year ago; as would have saved us loads of boot space and hassle.

The stroller is £149- a great price, that I would invest in if I hadn’t won it.
