It feels like there is little in between for the Tweens. Don’t get my wrong, yes they are growing up and a little too quickly but the divide seems huge. I often find myself in shoe shops in one hand fluffy cat slippers, and the other diamante kitten heeled soft pink slip-ons in her size.
The trick is to find something not too grown up, but not too ‘babyish’ either.
Eldest loves pink. I haven’t pushed it on her, she just really loves it. So when a pink box arrived with a white ribbon tied neatly around it. She hit the roof.
She is a big, BIG Katy Perry fan (even if she doesn’t understand all the lyrics) so I was a bit worried about her initial reaction to what was inside the box. I love kitchy characters with little back stories, cute faces and in collectable ranges – I always have, but Eldest is growing up in a different time and they are often pushed into liking things a bit too grown up for them in a bid to fit in.
I don’t know about you but I need these notebooks in my life, on my desk and in my bag. They come in at £3.50 for a pack of four. In the notebook scuffle I didn’t do well with my bargaining. They have all gone to various bags (none of which are mine).
The quality is great for the items, the price is also great. Eldest was able to sit and pick items out that she liked and also they went down a storm at Brownie’s.
