Kiddi Kutter Review
Kiddi Kutter Review- By Stephanie, mum to 3 children
We were recently given the Kiddi Kutter knife to try out with our three children aged 6, 5 and 2. I have previously shielded away from letting my kids do any independent cutting with sharp knives for fear of an accident if they slipped or my attention was diverted when I supervised them. I was thrilled to be able to give them something to use that was going to be safe and foster their sense of autonomy at the same time.
The Kiddi Kutter is a sturdy knife with a rubberised grip handle and a serrated metal blade. It is child size and a comfortable fit in their small hands. The cutting action is more like sawing than chopping but the blade is capable of getting through even the hardest foods like carrots, although I found it was more suited to softer foods like cold meats and cheese. My daughter who is 2 got the most enjoyment out of using the Kiddi Kutter and she is delighted to help out with lunch and dinner preparation in a more hands on way than she was ever able to do previously.
I also think that now that my older 2 sons have had some experience cutting foods independently with the Kiddi Kutter, that they are ready to move onto a sharper knife with less risk of accident and injury . I think this is because they are more practiced at how foods respond to pressure and they have more idea just how much force they have to use for different foods.
Overall I am very impressed with this knife and would recommend it to other parents who want to get their children involved in the kitchen and give them some freedom at the same time.

I have purchased 3 Lil Fraser wraps from her and she delivered them to my door within a day which as a first time mum with a new baby was a god send! She responds quickly to queries and goes out of her way to provide assistance – I’ll definitely be purchasing from her again in the future!

Lil Fraser Wrap review
Customer review of Lil Fraser Wraps
I was lucky enough to receive one of the beautiful L’il Fraser Collection wraps as a gift after the birth of my second daughter. As a second time Mum, I was pleased to receive a generous sized wrap, making it very versatile for many different styles of swaddling or as a shade cover over the pram, and can be used well into the toddler years. The L’il Fraser Collection wraps are incredibly soft, a perfect wrap for a baby’s delicate skin, and the stretchy 100% jersey cotton helps baby to feel firmly secure without completely restricting movement, in a breathable cotton fabric, something many other brands of baby wraps don’t offer.
I have completely fallen in love with this wrap, and will be adding another to our collection so I am never without one! Several of my mummy friends have already discovered the L’il Fraser Collection wraps, they too share my love for these wraps. I look forward to giving these beautiful wraps to friends as gifts for the birth of their new babies, every baby needs one (or two!)

Kids Backpack Review
Finlee and Me review of Kids Backpacks
My son is about to turn four and start Kindy at the end of January. Being my first child I am excited for him and wanted to ensure the transition goes smoothly by having all the right items that he will need for his time at Kindy. The first thing on my list was a kids backpack. I wanted it to be a nice size that wouldn’t hurt his back and I wanted it to be adjustable so that I could make it fit correctly. I know that he will need to store his lunch and drink bottle, a change of clothes and many of the creative things he will make at Kindy so it still had to be a reasonable size to fit that.
He loves cars, planes and anything with wheels or that flies so when I was asked to review a kids backpack from Finlee and Me http://www.finleeandme.com.au/productcategory.php?id=9 I was impressed when we were sent The Fast Track kids backpack and so was he.
The material is very soft and as a bonus is machine washable. This will come in handy if his lunch gets spilled or when I need to wash the bag after holding all the craft items as I am sure there will be lots of glitter coming home on the creations.
The backpack is made from insulated fabric that is stain resistant and certified free of lead, PVC and phthalates. I was impressed when I read that each backpack is individually made in Taiwan by a woman owned facility that supports fair labour.
The backpack is very light and has a section at the back of the backpack to store notes or readers. Inside there are three compartments that could hold a drink, sunscreen, or a lunchbox. They are made of netted material and have elastic so can stretch to hold the item. There is also enough room to store a lunchbox, clothing or craft items. There is one strap inside the backpack that helps tighten the arm straps so I can make it fit my son correctly. It can also be tighten so that there are no dangling straps. There is a handle at the top that will come in handy when I need to carry it.
The colours are very appealing with majority of it being red and grey and the two racing cars are red and blue and it has a yellow racing track.
Overall I am very happy with this backpack and I am sure my son will love using it for Kindy. There are so many different types of kids backpacks available like the owl and penguin ones.
If you think these backpacks are great then you’ll want to check out other Finlee & Me Products like their educational toys ( http://www.finleeandme.com.au/
Disclaimer- I have not been paid for this review, but have been sent a backpack that I have been able to use and keep. Any thoughts or opinions that have been shared are mine.
Purebaby sleeping bags and ErgoPouch sleeping bags
Purebaby sleeping bags are one of the best sleeping bags that I have tried. When I was choosing them for my children I wanted them to be organic, durable and comfortable. This is because they are going to spend up to 12 hours a night in them so I wanted them to be sleeping in something that was naturally made and would breathe well on warmer nights. I am also aware of the way cotton is grown commerically and it uses alot of excess water and chemicals, whereas organic cotton is grown without chemicals and is more environmentally friendly.
I also wanted a sleeping bag that had sleeves as on cold winter nights I wanted my children’s arms to stay warm and most of the other sleeping bags only had sleeveless ones. Purebaby makes both with sleeves and without. It is reassuring when I go to bed that I know that they are warm and won’t wake up with freezing arms.
One of the reasons why I sell Purebaby sleeping bags is because I found that they were very durable and washed very well. My son had his sleeping bags for over 2 years and worn them for naps and overnight and they still look brand new and I will be able to use them with my younger child.
Purebaby sleeping bags come in a variety of sizes for summer and winter and the different TOG available are 0.5, 1.5 and 3 TOG. The design are very appealing and suit both genders. There is certainly a sleeping bag that will fit your child and for each season.

Itzy Ritzy capsule covers are the reason I started my business
Itzy Ritzy capsule covers are the reason I started my business and why it has grown from one product to stocking over 100 products. When my youngest child was born, I decided I needed to use a baby capsule and a close friend gave me a Itzy Ritzy capsule cover as a present. It was one of the best presents I had received and used it daily with the capsule, but also on my pusher.
Everytime I would go out with the capsule cover I would get asked by friends and strangers where I got this cover from and how they wished they had one when they had their babies. It got me thinking that more people would like to use this, but found it wasn’t sold by many stores.
I approached Itzy Ritzy who told me I needed to have a website to sell the capsule covers. I was hoping to sell via Facebook, but was told this wasn’t possible. I was faced with the decision to decide how passionate I was about this product and whether I would start a website or walk away.
I am not one to give up so I sort advice on the best website designer and it grew from there. I initially was just going to stock Itzy Ritzy products, but realised that other people may want to buy similar things to what I am interested in and value.
I have set my website up with a strong belief to only stock brands that I can personally recommend and that I have tried with myself and my family. I am also very passionate about organic products and finding natural products for my family.
The brands that I stock are Itzy Ritzy, Purebaby, Lil Fraser Wrap, Miessence Organic products, Sleepy Wings, H2Onya drink bottles, Kaper Kidz non-toxic wooden toys, Natural Rubber teethers and dummies, Lillybit nappy clutch and Wotnot baby wipes and sunscreen.
I am always looking for new products to trial and as my children grow I am needing to get new things that suit their age and ability. Please keep an eye on this website as it continues to grow and improve.
Thank you for your support. You can order your Itzy Ritzy capsule covers here https://frombabytokids.com.au/products-page-2/itzy-ritzy/
Apple, Pear and Carrot muffins
Hi everyone,
Before I start this business, I was involved in another business where I made healthy muffins with a focus on toddler and school children. I made them so they included lots of fruit and vegetables, low in sugar and also tasted yummy!
I am a very casual cook and often don’t measure properly, but these are the measurements I use. This recipe is made in the one bowl so just keep adding the ingredients.
I would love to see the muffins you have made or hear the feedback.
Thanks
Sara
