I tried it! Mr Colour Maker

 

A while back mami let me paint in the kitchen and I made an absolute mess!

She turned for one moment and I painted the floor, the cabinets and when she tried to take the brush away, I even painted her jeans! It was so much fun! Although, mami didn't think so.

So when I was offered to try out Mr Colour Maker paint bucket by Tomy, mami was very happy for some good clean fun!
I am only a year and a half and even though it is recommended for kids 2-5 years old, I enjoy seeing the bucket light up when I pour the different colours. I don't know it does it, but the entire bucket begins to glow and I use the magic wand to stir it all up. You can even mix colours to make new ones!

It took mami a few tries to understand how it worked, but daddy and I got it just fine.

He asks you to pour in red, blue and yellow, sings back to you and explains how to make more colours. Mami and daddy help me with this, because I am still working on learning my colours. Daddy thinks it is a clever little invention.

Mami's only concern is that the lid came off right away. It didn’t break off, it just comes off all the time. And without the lid Mr Colour Maker doesn’t work. So when I hid the lid and couldn’t remember where it was, I couldn’t mix the colours. Oh no!

But daddy thinks this is on for a reason – the lid is meant to come off so that it won’t break off. See?

It also sings the rainbow song and there are 3 different modes depending on how well you know your colours.

One night, mami came into my room to check on me and she tripped on Mr Colour Maker and it lit up and said “wake me up with some colour please”.

This scared her so much she yelled out and woke me up. He is sneaky! He goes quiet after not playing with him, but mami wishes there was a permanent off button.

Lid aside, mami, daddy and I really like  Mr Colour Maker and I give it two hands up! It makes a great gift and you can get it for £24.99 from Tomy, Argos and other toy shops in the UK.

I also use it to keep my dummies and the rocks that I find at the park.  So it serves as a storage too!

Now get painting!

I tried it! FlexiBath

Yipppeeeeeee! I got a new bathtub! Yessss! I love it and so does mami and daddy. It's red, it folds up and it's called a FlexiBath.

I know what you're thinking "he doesn't have a bath tub?" and the answer is "no, I don't".

See when I was a baby mami and daddy has a special tub for me. They used the big one and I couldn't wait to go in there. Then we moved to another flat, and guess what? Our new flat does not have one! I searched and searched, but no luck.

I realised mami and daddy wash standing up and it doesn't look very fun.

So when I was asked to try the FlexiBath I jumped at the chance and made sure mami emailed the right person. We got one in our favourite colour, red! This bathtub is made for me!

I think the two guys from a country called Denmark who invented the FlexiBath also lived in small flats. They wanted a bathtub that would not take up too much space and easy to put away. Just like us!

First Impressions

When it arrived, mami and daddy looked at each other a bit worried. Mami whispered "it looks a bit small, don't you think?" Daddy just nodded and said, "well, let's try it out".

See, I'm not getting any smaller, I have a big tummy to prove it and the thought of being crammed in my other tub didn't make me very happy.

The colour was a bright red, just how we like it (both of my buggies are red). The flexible plastic is clearly of very good quality and folds completely flat.

Bath Time!

It was like a dream come true! I went into the tub, and at first I was a bit scared because I had never been in so much water.

You should see the other tub I had, it was like bathing in a bucket! Mami filled the tub and like magic it expanded! It looked twice as big and it was the perfect fit.

I could move around, play with my toys and I could actually put my hands underwater!

I saw that many people use this for travelling, but I think any family with out tubs in their homes should have this.

Best of all, I can use it until I'm 4 years old!

Mami and Daddy

Mami kept saying this tub is "absolutely perfect".

Although it does say it is "non-slip" daddy noticed that it was really slippery for me, so maybe a bit more traction on the bottom would be better.

Also, the plug is really easy to lose. I should know because I sneaked into the bathroom and took the plug with me. Mami and daddy spend a whole day looking for it!

They would like to see the plug be attached so that it's not so easy for me to take and hide.

Me

I give this bath two hands up! It does what it says, and it is a very good price. You can buy one for £29.95.

Bathtime has never been so much fun!

bye bye,
