If these don’t appeal to you, why not take a peek around the entire Tesco Baby Event itself and see if there is anything else you need that has been included in the sale.

The Beanstalk Activity Table is for children two years and younger and is brightly coloured to catch their attention and help their development. It comes with a shape sorter, textures, spinners, noises, rattles and buttons to keep little hands and minds quite busy.

The table is really cute but I can’t find much information on its size.

The Philips Avent baby food steamer and blender has been marked down from the usual hefty price of £80 to £59.99 on Amazon. This is a saving of £20.01 and the entire system comes with free delivery. Awesome.

The Philips Avent baby food steamer and blender is a very handy gadget indeed. It is basically an all-in-one solution to preparing baby food for every stage of the weaning process. It also takes a lot of effort out of making lots of lovely healthy fruit and veg for baby to try.

You can use the Philips Avent baby food steamer to steam the veg nicely before blending them into soft and tasty purees. The unit is very easy to use and wash, comes with a booklet packed with age-appropriate recipes and information on weaning, and looks rather nice to boot.

The Philips Avent baby food steamer and blender offers three blending speeds for age appropriate levels of puree, you simply steam, flip the unit over, and blend. It’s super cool, this one.

One thing I like about the site is that delivery is free in the UK. I suppose that it isn't really - it will all be factored into the pricing.

Although it is only a little bit off, every little counts. And when you've got a baby there's always a few things you just have to buy from Mothercare and can't get anywhere else.

However, there are a few exemptions. As well as not being able to use the code on sale or reduced items, you can't use it in ELC concessions, or to buy baby milk or nappies. Unfortunately.

Pampers New Baby Size 2 mini nappies have been marked down by 38% to only £11.11 for two packs of 62 nappies. That’s 124 nappies for £11.11 including free delivery. What an utterly tasty bargain for the new mum!

I must point out that the delivery of this deal will take a while and that there are only a few left in stock. They are getting more in, as Amazon usually do, but the price of the Pampers New Baby nappies may not be as good when the new stock arrives.

Amazon have quite a few Pampers special offers on at the moment actually. Not only can you get different sizes of the Pampers New Baby nappies for the lovely £11.11, but you can also get wipes at a discount and Simply Dry nappies for £14.25 for the same number.

Britax Adventure High Back Booster Seat £29.97 @ Kiddicare

by Tamsin Oxford in Deals on 11 March, 2011 at 3:00 pm

Britax Adventure High Back Booster Seat £29.97 @ Kiddicare

The Britax Adventure high back booster chair is on sale at Kiddicare for £29.97. This is a nice saving off the usual RRP of £59.99 for a high quality booster seat with sturdy sides and impact protection.

The price of the Britax Adventure high back booster seat includes delivery, and if you order in the next few hours you can have it arrive on Monday. If you wish. If your need is pressing and urgent.

The Britax Adventure seat has a name, Billy, and it is lightweight with side-impact protection and is ergonomically designed for older children. The headrest is adjustable to multiple positions and can be adjusted as your child grows.

You’ll also find that the Britax Adventure has an adjustable back rest, pull out drink holders, a snack tray, 3-point seat belt installation, and weighs in at 3.9kgs. The Britax range is quite good, I think, and comes with great reviews and safety reputation.

Britax B-Mobile 3-Wheeler Lightweight Stroller £89.00 @ Tesco Direct

by Tamsin Oxford in Deals on 9 March, 2011 at 6:00 pm

Britax B-Mobile 3-Wheeler Lightweight Stroller £89.00 @ Tesco Direct

The Britax B-Mobile 3-Wheeler lightweight stroller has been marked down from £179.99 to only £89 at Tesco Direct right now. That is a saving of £90 off this awesome Britax stroller that has quite a few fabulous bells and whistles.

The Britax B-Mobile stroller has, as suggested, three wheels and this particular model comes in a light green called Aurora Green.  Amusingly, the product description says it has four wheels. I am assuming this is because the front wheel consists of two elements.

Anyway, the Britax B-Mobile stroller is for use from birth up to 15kgs and boasts a compact umbrella fold with automatic fold lock, a lay-flat position and a one step Click & Go compatibility with the Britax Baby-Safe Sleeper.

It has all round suspension, multiple seat positions and looks pretty sharp. There isn’t a lot of info about the features but I know this brand well and they have usually got lots of things like footmuffs as part of the package.

The Britax B-Mobile three wheeler is a steal at only £89.

The Vtech Splash and Sing submarine comes with free delivery from Amazon and has some ace customer reviews. It really does do a lot of stuff, making it a fantastic toy for bathtime fun and education.

If your tots hate bathing, then this Vtech toy is bound to get them enthusiastic about getting into the water. The submarine squirts water out of its funnels in time to the music, there are buttons that introduce animals, colours and numbers, and these are activated in time to the splashes of water too.

There is even a mini detachable submarine that kids can use to pour water, and a 3D water squirting dolphin that can be used to wet whichever parent is bathing you. The Vtech Splash & Sing submarine is a fantastic buy at this price.
