This day I love.......: youtube

I have been looking forward to today for some time. The girls have been watching Basil Brush on his YouTube channel and it has brought back some funny memories from my childhood. Today we went to watch him live.

We made the journey to York via train and whilst only just over an hour the train journey is very exciting for the girls. Grandma travelled with us which made it even more exciting. After a lovely lunch in York city centre we headed over to the Opera House.

The girls were excited when they saw the stage. We took our seats and waited for the show to start.

The show was everything I had hoped it would be and more. Really interactive, had songs and dancing in for the kids and jokes for the adults. At one point just one Dad laughed really loud at one of the jokes. It was true all round family entertainment that saw the girls, myself and my Mum laughing out loud. We all really loved it and as I put the girls to bed tonight they said 'Boom Boom'

This Day I love Boom Boom!

Through Linked I have come across lots of wonderful linky, one of my favourites is Your YouTube run by Lisa from Hollybobbs. YouTube is a channel that for me is still very much in development, and I watch the videos on Your YouTube with awe and feel inspired.

This week Lisa is off on holiday and she has very kindly asked me to host Your YouTube, eek! I feel really honoured to be doing so. I have watched the videos from last week and picked the featured video which is Chantelle and her video of Gracie takes the mummy quiz - toddler video bombing included. I asked my daughter these questions and I all got was I don't know. Some great answers and cute photo bombing!

Come and join in this weeks Your YouTube. Please share up to two videos and then make sure to watch and like the two before yours. This linky only works if we help each other, so do be sure to share the love

Fans of Cbeebies are already familiar with Squidge. Squidge is their companion on bed time hour and a lovable figure to all who watch him. This familiarity can be continued at home with a lovable soft and cuddly figure for all children to enjoy.

Squidge plays the famous bedtime hour song, and even has colourful lights. He is soft and cuddly and has become a favourite of my girls.

Squidge has come everywhere with us so far, to Grandma and Grandads house when they go to sleep and he has even travelled with us to Scotland. I like that the battery compartment seems to be well padded so you don't really feel it when you give Squidge a cuddle. He certainly provides comfort to both girls at bedtime.

Enter the world of CBeebies fun with Sweet Dreams with Squidge. He’s getting tired and needs his sleep! Squeeze him and listen as he plays the CBeebies bedtime song and watch as he glows softly in different colours, to gently soothe your little one to sleep. Squeeze him for a second time and the music will stop and go back to the start when pressed again. Soft and cuddly Squidge is sure to be a favourite with your little ones at bedtime!

We don't really watch a huge amount of TV, but when we do my daughter has very specific requests. Sometimes its very hard to find the program she wants to watch. Either its not scheduled at that time or I don't own the DVD. I also simply cannot afford to buy all the DVDs to the programs she wants to watch.

TalkTalk Kids Boost is a great solution to this problem. It currently costs £5 per month. You select the Boost package and add it to your existing TalkTalk package. You then have access to a fair few Kids Tv channels, including Disney and Nickelodeon, and also their on demand programs. The On demand channel means I can find 99.9% of the time the program she wants to watch. You need to keep the boost for a minimum of 1 month, but should you need it again later you can simply go back and add it on.

To help explain a little more I made the following video
