Love is all around us yet again as Valentine’s day approaches. Brace yourselves for hearts, flowers and romance. That’s if, as a mother of young children, you can remember what romance is...   In my case, ‘romance’ amounts to fish, chips and prosecco which suits me down to the ground. That, and the card with a question mark from the sender dropped through my letterbox at precisely the moment my hubby leaves for work. Strange that.   Valentine’s day is not just for grown ups though. It’s also a time to remind our little ones they are loved too. Our Looby Lou exclusive collection, f..

The end of the festivities is something we always dread in our house. The children can’t believe they have to wait another whole year until Christmas and the house looks like it’s taken minimalism a tad too far. “It’s so empty!” they all cry.   However, there is something a little delightful in this ‘emptiness’. I like to see it as my old friend ‘tidiness’. Pre Christmas, pre pine needles and pre Santa delivery. Ah yes, that…   So perhaps it isn’t as tidy as it could be, at least the children’s bedrooms aren’t anyway. But luckily, at Little Lucy Willow, we have storage solutions we..

I know the summer holidays haven't even begun, but I’m afraid I’m about to break the taboo and broach the touchiest of touchy subjects - going back to school…   I apologise profusely for any offense caused, to teachers and pupils alike, but I am just trying to give you the heads up about getting prepared for the autumn term. I’m talking about children's desks.       Every child needs somewhere to think, write, create and call their own. And somewhere to study too. The dining table is handy, yes, but getting all those books out then packing them all away again in time for ..

So, you’ve decided to invest in a new bed for your child but don't quite know what to go for. Buying a child’s bed isn’t the simple affair it once was, with fierce competition on the high street plus designers clamouring to corner the market with novel and eye-catching ideas. Car shaped beds, bus shaped beds, beds built like castles - complete with turrets… Of course aesthetics are important but it is also crucial to make sure you spend wisely, especially when looking for something to see your toddler through to their teens and beyond.   Spacesavers If living space is at a pre..

The other night as I chased Martha around the room in a vain attempt to get her ready for bed we fell into the usual routine.   She disappeared down the stairs, pyjamas in hand, as I stood quietly behind the door ready to shout “boo!” when she crept back in. Laughing hysterically she launched herself onto her Looby Lou Cabin Bed and proceeded to jump up and down. I watched and waited as she bounced herself into a giggling stupor, knowing she would be so tired after five minutes that I’d have her tucked in and snoozing in no time.     "No wonder she's so trim despite all t..
