Crocs for all the family!

Crocs are a bit like marmite – they are shoes you either love or hate.

I am on the love side of them and all the kids own a pair which get used for trips to the beach and general summer wear as they are perfect to protect little feet from stones, they dry instantly if you take them into the water for a paddle and they are lightweight to tuck away in a bag.

I didn’t know they did wellies for both kids and adults and I was keen to try them.

Made from fully moulded from their infamous Croslite™ material the boots are super lightweight with cushioning and comfort. We received the Handle It kids’ rain boot for Eliza to review which are available in 6 bright colours with a waterproof build that keeps her puddle-jumping feet cozy and dry.

I thought the handles at the top were a genius idea for carrying them around, but they actually make pulling the boots on so much easier that she can actually do it herself plus they survived the puddle jump test and look great too.

I was sent the Wellie Rain Boot in a shocking pink colour. They are made with the same  Croslite™ material as Eliza’s only have rubber outsole pods which helps improve traction and grip. I was surprised by how light and comfortable they are and will now become my staple for days out.

Isaac’s current wellies still fit him, so for him I chose the Star Wars™ special effects traditional croc, only they come with a twist – Watch the lightsaber elements around the front of the clog light up with every step. It glows a menacing red to match the Darth Vader™ design theme.

I ordered a size bigger than he needs so hopefully they will still fit him in the summer, although he is quite happy wearing them around the house as slippers.

I have to say I am very impressed with the Crocs range of wellies and shoes and will certainly be back for more when the kids out grow their current ones.

A Stylish Christmas with My Little Pony

Last weekend we were invited to to the launch of Rainbow Dash Style & Groom at Happy Faces in Wandsworth.

Happy Faces is a children’s hair salon that has the salon upstairs with hairdressing chairs that all the kids wanted to sit in, followed by two further floors with party rooms where the kids could get their nails painted, have glitter tattoos and most importantly get up close and personal with Rainbow Dash Style & Groom where they got to test out their hair styling creativity.

We started off downstairs where we were introduced to Rainbow Dash and the kids were quick to get started. Eliza demanded I put little plaits in her mane, whilst her and Isaac got stuck into covering her in stickers.

Rainbow Dash Style & Groom

Rainbow Dash comes with a long mane of multi-coloured hair which children can be adventurous in creating new hairstyles on the mane before trying the look themselves. Also included are colourful Cutie Mark stickers, gems, hair beads, a comb, clips and bobbles.

Once we had created our personal style on Rainbow Dash, Eliza got to have it recreated on her hair and we headed upstairs for some girly pampering.

We had a lovely time playing with Rainbow Dash Style and Groom and catching up with some other bloggers and their girls. Poor Isaac and Sebby were the only boys there but gamely joined in and Isaac made Eliza a necklace out of all the beads he could find.
