The Asda Baby and Toddler Event starts online tomorrow Thursday 16th April at www.asda.com/baby-event/

It's a great time to stock up on heavily discounted items such as nappies (Pampers and Little Angels), clothing (George) and toys (currently 2 for £10 on selected items and great discounts including Little Tikes). 

If you haven't bought Easter Eggs for your kids yet then cheap toys could be a great alternative Easter gift.

Here are our picks of the Little Tikes toddler toys for both boys and girls, which are great for creativity and will keep your kids entertained for hours:

Little Tikes 80 Wooden Building Blocks £10

Great for teaching little ones how to balance things carefully, increasing dexterity and creative design.

Little Tikes Speak and Learn Book £10

All sorts of useful learning pages such as a tell the time page.

Little Tikes Track Pack £10

Every kid loves a fun track to whiz vehicles around, and change into different shape

formats testing puzzle skills.

Little Tikes Noah's Animal Arkestra £15

A boat full of animals for endless floating fun, and teaching them the story of Noah too, if that's your bag!

Happy Easter!

BoojaBooja is my very favourite chocolate truffle brand. They are fully vegan (like me!) and made with healthy coconut oil, which takes the guilt away from scoffing lots of them! These truffles melt on the tongue with a rich yet light flavour that is soooo more-ish!!
