There’s more than £10 off the Lanka Kade Minibeast Skittles in the VUPBaby up to 70% off clearance sale. Normally priced at £24, they’re now £13.86.

• Have some family fun with indoor skittles

These skittles are just gorgeous, I think. They’re made from environmentally friendly rubber wood and each skittle is beautifully painted and decorated with ‘minibeasts’.

There a snail, spider, ladybug, beetle. Bee and some other critter I can’t quite make out – perhaps a butterfly – each with smiley faces and pretty flower decorations.

The six skittles come with three balls, and the whole lot can be packed and stored in the open wooden box it all comes in.

Skittles are 20cm tall, so they’re a lovely size for playing with and I’d imagine they could transform a rainy afternoon into a fun indoor tournament.  Lanka Kade Minibeast Skittles are not recommended for under three’s, although I can’t for the life of me imagine why.

I’m not sure how I missed notification of this, but Mothercare have a ‘massive’ stock clearance sale on at the moment.

• Stock up on Mothercare’s clearance sale

Mothercare’s  Massive Clearance Sale is on now with some pretty big offerings in the line-up. For example, you can get the Hampstead 3-piece collection for £850. That might sound like a lot, till you realise that normally that goes for a monumental £1700!

The set includes a 3-deep drawer dresser, a beautiful oak cot bed, which converts to a toddler bed, and a wardrobe with 2 adjustable hanging rails and an external drawer for additional storage.

The My Jungle Family set of baby accessories has over 20 items in the final clearance, bringing you such gems as the Fleece Blanket for half price at £9.99.

There are plenty more to look at if you’re stocking up on babyshower gifts, planning your own, or just like buying baby stuff!
