| he isn't allowed them because the 1st and last time he used them he drew all over the walls and table, Gracie does this and i wouldnt be without my JML magic sponge lol, they are a bit funny like if he ever chokes on anything he isnt allowed that anymore makes life quite hard lol they are really good ideas hun i never though of them i feel a bit silly now seeing as i got gracie them last year what a dumb arse lol |

| i love messy time we do these on different days painting, glueing, colouring and stickers cant wait to go collecting leaves and sticking them. We made a pen pot the other day made out of a loo roll holder and feathers stuck on to it. Spending about £20 - £30 |

| his mm is quite picky she only just uses the asda own nappies because she thinks they are too girly as they are called little angels lol so a toaster and kettle is probably too girly and not boy enough Im glad im not like that with gracie she has the handy manny tool kit and when daddy has his drill and screwdriver out she is there next to him drilling, hammering and screwing and if she cant find the right screwdriver she shouts fippie (philipé) lol |

| I'd buy him pyjamas - sounds like toys aren't a good option she'll just lock them away invade he plays with them nice pair of jammies and slippers - you can't go wrong, xx |

| You could get an aquadraw so he can do the painting/drawing thing without the mess. Lily now loves hers and spends ages playing with it at the mo x |
