Finally summer is here! Welcome to warm and sunny months of flowers, dancing in the sun and finding things to do over the holidays. As the light streams out from behind the clouds colour seems to be everywhere – it sparkles on a web, it glints off a stream, it flashes in a rainbow. It’s the perfect time, I thought to write about that very topic. Colour.

Why is it so important that our children learn to colour in? When do they first recognise colours? When do they start colouring in and what inspires them to do so?

My nephew is being christened in a couple of weeks and I’ve been racking my brain trying to come up with a gift that he’ll use. Porcelain Bunnykins sets are lovely but will never be used in a house full of energetic boys who think they’re Zorba the Greek as most meal times their plates end up on the floor.. Then I found this little nugget from Argos! Ceramic (so it’ll bounce when thrown!) and featuring a cute design of a bunny, mouse and puppy I reckon I’m on to a winner! It’s dishwasher safe (can’t tell you how many plastic plates Ive thrown away after the Princess peels off after a wash in the dishwasher!) and suitable for little hands and at only £14.99 I’m sold!

So if you’re stuck for a gift check this out – not only are you saving 25% but you’ll get a mug, plate, spoon and bowl that’ll be used and loved for years.

Baby has  taken his or her first toddling steps. They can get about, and you feel rather proud. This is a huge achievement.

The thing is, what they want to do now is walk everywhere. Get back in that pushchair? Are you mad?! And a toddler has their own agenda when it comes to getting anywhere. In fact, getting anywhere at all seems to be pretty optional for them.

They like going out. Some will be sociable, and want to mix with other children. Some won't and will prefer your company. But from now until they go to school they will want to go out and do things - and so will you. It is fun!

Activities at this stage are generally best if they offer a mix of stuff to do, which includes the ability to run, fast, in any direction they want.

So what do other parents recommend? I drew on the collective experience of our PlayPennies parents, scoured the internet, and asked every parent I know.

This adorable Mamas & Papas Bop highchair has been marked down from £54.99 to £24.99 at Argos. This is less than half the original price and you can collect instore to save on the delivery charges.

The green Bop highchair from Mamas & Papas looks insanely overpriced at £54.99 to me. Are you spending that much money because of the brand name or because it is a superior design? I’m not inclined to believe it is the latter if I am honest. I got a cheap and cheerful highchair for only £10 and it worked just fine.

This is a great deal for fans of the brand though as it has features such as a removable tray and a five-point harness. That’s it though, and it really doesn’t look very comfortable at all for poor baby. I wouldn’t recommend it, but if this is your cup of tea, then the price is very definitely right.

This is a stonking deal from Kiddicare! You get this ace Kip travel cot reduced from £80 to £20. Yep, that is a saving of £60 and 75%. This is a brilliant deal for anyone who is starting a family and needs to stock up on the essentials. Delivery is around £4.95 though.

Bambino Direct have discounted the Britax Eclipse car seat from £129.99 to just £89.97. That’s a fabulous saving of £40.02! The Britax Eclipse car seat is the ideal solution if your car has limited fitting space (i.e. a 3-door or smaller car). It’s forward facing with improved side impact protection through deep softly padded side wings and can fully recline without disturbing your child.

• Click here to get safe with Bambino Direct*

It also features a 5-point safety harness with one-pull adjustment and has Performance chest pads to reduce your child’s forward movement in the event of an impact. But by far the biggest feature for me is that its light making the transfer of seat from my car to my husband’s easy and bruise-free.

Suitable from 9 months to 4 years, the Britax Eclipse car seat’s cover can be removed and washed so no more grubby car seat that draws comments from your mother when she gets into the car with you! The Works offers free delivery to your door or you can collect from their showroom in Huddersfield. So keep your child safe (and comfortable) on the road this summer and enjoy the journey for a change!

Here is another tasty deal from Amazon today and one that I could not ignore. How CUTE are these dudes? Down from £12.99 to £9.94, these Tomy Octopals are reduced by 23% and a total of £3.05. Oh yes, and you get the lovely free delivery via Super Saver Delivery too. Bargain.

• Click here to get washing with Amazon

The Tomy Octopals bath toy floats on the water and includes eight baby octopuses to stick onto the side of the bath. Mommy octopus is a water pouring toy and each baby octopus is a water squirter. Brilliant when mum really doesn’t want to get wet…

The head of the mother octopus separates and becomes a fun pouring cup which can also be used as a showerhead for bath time fun. That’s pretty cool. The babies come away from the mother and can be beetled about as squirters and toys. They also stick to bath tiles and bath sides too. They ALSO have numbers on them to help with number recognition and counting.

Amazon has cut the price on this rather fascinating piece of baby equipment by 30%. You usually pay £99.99, but they have shaved of £30 to take the total to a tasty £69.99, and it comes with that lovely free super saver delivery too.

The Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Perfect Pret set dispenses the correct amount of water for a more consistent dilution in under two minutes. The filter system removes impurities present in water, plus an initial hot shot of water kills any bacteria and helps to dissolve the formula easily.

The Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Perfect Prep makes the feed ready to serve at body temperature, just like breast milk, and works with any brand of powdered formula milk and bottle shapes and sizes. I don’t know about you, but this looks amazing and I wish I had one of these when I was back in the bottle days!

Argos has cut the price on these three Mickey Mouse t-shirts from £12.99 to a lovely £6.49 instead. That’s a saving of half price on these three adorable tees that will make any momma happy to pop on her tot. Unless she doesn’t like Disney, of course…

• Click here to get dressed with Argos*

The sizes that are available in this size are 3-6 months so that is actually quite limited. Also, the site describes these as “boys” shirts, a fact that I am rather irritated by. Why should girls be pink and boys be red and blue? Why can’t a girl be red and blue? It’s silly and just promotes the whole gender divide thing.

The tees have got the cutest designs on them though. The red is plain with a simple motif and blue piping, the grey has little football shoes and the white has been created so it looks like your tot is Mickey Mouse. So cute!
