Shop Local Christmas 2014

November 21 2014 By melbournemamma Leave a Comment

Hello there

 

By now you are probably aware that I am VERY passionate about supporting local businesses here in Melbourne and there is no better time to show your support than now – in the lead up to Christmas.

 

There are a lot of reasons why you should shop local (and you can read about some of them here on one of my earlier posts) but have you ever thought about what you are actually giving back to your community. …

Review: Mocka Box Cart

October 14 2014 By melbournemamma Leave a Comment

The lovely folks at Mocka Australia recently sent me a Box Cart for the kids (and their daddy) to play with.

 

I remember my brother had a billy cart when we were kids and we loved it.

Review: Belly Art ‘Baby Imprint Kit’

October 7 2014 By melbournemamma Leave a Comment

I was recently sent some Belly Art Baby Imprint Kits to review.

 

Baby Imprint Kits create a lasting impression of your child’s hand or feet using this special impression material. The Belly Art Imprint kit is like no other – it’s not plaster or clay so there is no baking or mixing. It’s so easy to use, baby safe and mess free!
