Fun Galore with Micador

social mums 5 a

“I really want you to win,” said the Woo grabbing my hand and shuffling nervously beside me, as Jo Stanley read out the names of the day’s winners.

There had been so many great brands to talk to that day at the Kids Business Social Mums say event (and we’d been given so many goodies to take home and try already) but for the children one brand had stood out from the rest.

We had spent a good portion of the day at the Micador stand, and with good reason.
Several tables had been set up with different art and craft items for the children to play with. There was everything from colouring pencils, stencils, pastels, egg chalk and this weird but wonderful modeling foam. Seriously, even I couldn’t stay away from that stuff!

“Yes!” Woo fist-pumps the air.

Foghorn looks confused. “Did you win Mummy?”

Bubble follows me up to collect my prize. She has been dying to bust out Gangnam-style on that stage all day.

As you may imagine, that Micador hamper full of creative loveliness has been worth it’s weight in gold these school holidays when it comes to battling the ‘I’m-boreds.’

I love this stuff! (And not only because it has saved my sanity on more than one occasion.) It goes without saying that all of their products are non-toxic and safe for children, but I also love the way the products are designed to accommodate a child’s age and ability.

(No one ever knows where the matching top is!) Likes: Reading, cooking, sketching, dancing (preferably with a Sav Blanc in one hand), social media, and sitting down on a toilet seat that one of her children hasn’t dripped, splashed or sprayed on. Dislikes: Writing pretentious crap about herself in online bio’s and refereeing arguments amongst her offspring.
