Lumie Bodyclock Starter
Getting out of bed is my least favourite part of the day. I hate it! I want to snooze my clock over and over and snuggle down again in the dark until early afternoon. However, with 2 part-time jobs and 3 kids to get out to school, getting up bright and early is a ‘must’.
The Lumie Bodyclock Starter certainly makes getting up in the mornings easier!

Braun Face Beauty Edition
As this is a new concept I had a good read before I tried the Braun Face, I thought I had seen it all so I was delighted with this new innovative technology.
The Braun Face does 2 jobs and they are both as important as each other in my book.

Braun Series 9 Shaver
Hubby always wet shaved, well, in the 17 years I have known him. He says he used to own an electric razor many years ago, but found the wet shave gave a better cut with less irritation. He has recently tried the latest innovation from Braun – the series 9 electric shaver and had only good things to report!

Thule Atmos X3 for iPad Air
Its a personal opinion but there is no device out there that compares to my iPad. With it comes a price tag which activates an immediate sense of caution when handling it in any way whatsoever. A protective cover is obligatory. The usual array of cheap vinal covered cardboard floppy covers or extra tough ‘military spec’ rubber bumpers didn’t appeal. It was with a degree of disbelief that I selected the Thule Atmos X3.

Gameband+Minecraft
Minecraft, it’s taking over the world! My kids barely enter the house from school and they have managed to log on. When we visit family and friends they have they tablets with them, keeping their animals fed and their worlds ‘turning’. My 3 children have this addiction and I am so thankful Minecraft is somewhat educational and not just a ‘game’ like so many others on line.

Brita Fill&Go Water Bottle
My followers will know by now that I have a ‘bee in my bonnet’ about BPA in plastics! I spent a lot of time looking for BPA free water bottles for the kids when I was preparing for the new school term in September. Once again, I have returned to my ‘old favourite’ – Brita.
Brita water jugs have been adorning my kitchen bench for as long as I can remember. I have faith in them to the point that no-one dares fill the kettle with water straight from the tap!
I would be quite fussy with my water and rightly so – sometimes when I run the tap especially first thing in the morning the smell of chlorine is terribly strong. There is no way I would drink this unless it has passed through my filter jug.
My jug is rather large and I love that I always have plenty of filtered water ready to go. Brita also supply jugs for your fridge – these are narrower and fit neatly into the door or on the shelf.
I love the ‘Navelia’ and I have this in yellow. Its perfect for my fridge and my kids frequently reach for it when they want a drink of pure, clean cold water. The Marella comes in a great selection of fun bright colours to suit all styles and kitchens. It holds 1.4 litres of water and the flip top lid means I can refill this with one hand – perfect for a mum who is as busy as myself!
RRP £22.00 from Amazon and other good retailers.
However, no matter how large the water bottle, the kids always come home with it empty and tell me I should have given them 2 water bottles! Problem solved, once again, with Brita Fill&Go.
Have you checked out the new Brita Fill&Go water bottles? If not, do so – these are PERFECT for children heading out to school in the morning and need water on the go. They come in a variety of colours as well.
My daughter is going to secondary school next week and she will be away for quite a long day. She will have a Brita Fill&Go water bottle packed in her bag.
When she has this empty all she has to do is fill it again at a tap and this clever system filters the water in the bottle! Jenny prefers to drink from an upright water bottle and Brita have cleverly added a straw so she can do this. The straw can also be removed so you can tip the bottle back to drink either.
The Brita Fill&Go retails at £9.99 and comes with 4 filter discs. Britta recommend changing these weekly. They can easily be bought from local supermarkets or on Amazon.
