I will be the first to admit that I NEED a calendar, if I didn’t have one I would forget so many things. I also take great pleasure in finding the perfect one. It can be frustrating when you search and search and come up empty handed but when you think about the fact you have to look at it for next 12 months, you want to love it. I have always looked in places like newsagents and department stores on my annual calendar hunt and for some reason had never even thought of looking online, which for me is strange as I buy almost everything online. This year however I have been introduced to Calendar Club which is where my 2015 calendars are from and so will my 2016 editions. I have found my new go-to calendar shop.

Calendar Club have over 4000 calendars to choose from in a wide range of topics and interests. They cover films, cartoons and TV shows, celebrities, music, sports right through to hobbies, cute animals, food, art, humour and so much more. There is something for every age and every interest. I found the task of narrowing it down to just 5 calendars an enormously tough decision as there were so many eye-catching and interesting ones to choose from. Yes 5 may seem like a lot but we have – 1. family/events/birthdays. 2. My work deadlines/blog, 3. Finances/bills/payments and 4 & 5 are for B1 and B2 because they like to feel grown-up. On B1 &B2s’ calendars we write things like library day, homework, swimming, etc.

Did you know that just under 2 millions calendars are put under the Christmas tree each year? That’s a huge number when you think about the fact we live in a digital and technology fuelled world. While receiving a calendar for Christmas may not be of interest to some, others would absolutely love it!  I love nothing more than the old school paper versions of calendars and dairies. I love being able to physically feel it and add my own personal touches.

Are you starting your search for your 2015 calendar? Maybe you know someone who would love one for Christmas. Check out Calendar Club to see the full range available and if you cannot wait and want to purchase one now there is a sale on at the moment!!

The iconic Mother’s Choice is celebrating their 40th anniversary and they want to share their excitement with you by offering a 20% discount off everything online. I remember when I first found out I was pregnant with B1 (8 and a half years ago); it was the shock of a lifetime. Like a lot of young families we didn’t have a lot of money so we went in search of good quality products that didn’t cost us more than we afford. We found a Mother’s Choice car seat similar to the Emperor convertible seat on sale and after researching safety, touching for quality and checking our budget, we purchased it. It was reasonably priced and suited our requirements perfectly. It provided enough padding that bub was going to be comfortable, it was easy to keep clean, simple to adjust and stress-free to install.

People often assume reasonably priced baby equipment means poor quality however we had that particular car seat for years. It had many spills, hours of babies/toddlers travelling in it and it eventually became the extra seat in our second car for when family and friends needed a babysitter. We never once had an issue with wear and tear, poor quality or have anything negative to say about the Australian nursery brand Mother’s Choice because as a company they catered to our wants and requirements when we needed it most.

There is a reason why brands like Mother’s Choice are able to celebrate the amazing achievement of turning 40 and it’s not sheer luck. It is determination, knowing what your customers desire, what they need, remaining innovative, up to date and wanting the best for their consumers while remaining budget friendly. Congratulations on this wonderful milestone, I expect to see many more in the future.
