This day I love.......

Regular readers will know that over the next 12 months we have an exciting partnership working with Tonka.  One of the reasons we love working with Tonka is that all of their products are built to last.  I know therefore that Little Man playing with the toys now, in his rough and hit it really hard kind of way, that they will withstand this and he can still play with them when he is bigger.   In fact for over 70 years Tonka have stood by the promise 'a toy shouldn’t break just because a child plays with it' and they offer a lifetime guarantee for all their toys.

Little Man recently received the Diecast Emergency vehicle three pack, and he was instantly drawn to the bright primary colours.


Made of metal Little Man found them easy to pick up in his little hands and spent ages turning them over to examine all the different angles.  The detailing on each vehicle stays true to the real life emergency vehicle and he was fascinated by the patterns. 


The three pack consists of an ambulance, police car and fire engine and it would appear Little Man took a particular liking to the ambulance.  Often going to pick the ambulance up over all the others.



His little fingers could easily push the vehicles across the floor, ready to tackle any emergency. 


The ambulance also had three cones in the pack, but as Little Man puts everything in his mouth I felt that these were perhaps not suitable for him.  The pack is recommend for ages 3 and up, so I know that adult supervision is required when he plays with them.


Already our Tonka Emergency vehicles have been with us on our train journeys as Little Man loves to play with them.  He has chewed them, thrown them and used them to bang on the floor with.  Each emergency vehicle still looks like new.  No paint has removed, no dents and no broken pieces.  


The Tonka Diecast Emergency vehicle three pack is a great way to continue Little Man's collection of Tonka vehicles.  The wonderful thing about the Tonka vehicles is the girls love to join in and play with Little Man too.  I love that the Tonka vehicles are not only built to last but will be played with by all my children and they can play together with them.


This post is part of out partnership with Tonka all words are my own opinion

First I must apologies that my 365 is late.  A weekend of blogging conference and Illness meant I am only just able to sit up and type.

Sunday

eldest and mummy on training walk

Just over two weeks left [well one really its on Sunday] and then the big challenge will be here.  I will be walking the Yorkshire 3 peaks to raise money for Alzheimer's society.  I just want to say thank you to all those that have sponsored me so far via my Just giving badge [badge on blog] and helped me to raise over £200.  I will be aiming to tweet during the walk and you can follow me and Lisa [Hollybobbs] with #blogY3P.  A training walk with my daughter in the sunshine was a really lovely way to spend a Sunday.

Monday

youngest sweeping leaves

The girls and I spent some time cleaning up leaves in the garden and doing some general tidying up.  With the lovely weather its great to get outside and enjoy some time in the garden before bed.

Tuesday

eldest in play tunnel

More lovely summer play, my eldest loves her play tents which give great shade on hot days. 

Wednesday

the finished play house

I am so pleased with how the play house has turned out.  It has taken a while to complete due to the repair work that was needed but it has been well worth it.  Thanks to Farrow and Ball for the paint, I hope that the play house will last the girls for years to come

Thursday

cow bob bob cow

My daughter wanted to visit the farm after nursery.  This is one of my favourite pictures of the day as the cow shows a particular interest in BOB.

Friday

beautiful smiles

We visited a shopping centre after work as I needed some last minute supplies for the Yorkshire 3 peaks walk.  My eldest wanted a go on the fire engine ride.  I just love how happy she is

Saturday

gin

Ok so Saturday did not go according to plan.  My daughter decided to dive in from the side of the swimming pool into my face.  Which resulted in blood loss and a swollen nose, plus a lovely cut [quite deep I might add] across the bridge of my nose.  My daughter is unharmed, unhurt, unmarked and alright.  Which to me is the most important thing.  I however have a headache [still its now Monday] and my face/nose is killing me.  As a result of this I was late to pick up Hollybobbs, which made us late for the pre #blogonmosi dinner [sorry again Laura].  This picture is therefore of the gin Lisa and I had in our hotel room before blog on to wind down from a rather hectic day.
