Play Merrily Toy Review - Djeco Topical Fishing Game

So the wonderful people at Play Merrily Toys kindly sent a toy for us to play to our heart's content with, Being March it couldn't have come at a better time as R's birthday falls at the beginning of the month so receiving the  Djeco Tropical Fishing Game through the post was a very pleasant review for us to do.

I love traditional toys and with R turning 3 this magnetic game will come into much use with his fine motor skills. When he opened it on his birthday, it was the first present he wanted out of the box and actually ignored the rest of his presents whilst he played at least 5 games of it with myself, his 7 year old brother and my hubby!

The colours are lovely on the fish with a great variety of different fish to learn and explore. The game happens with the box so other than the actual wooden fish and 2 rods there is nothing to lose, which in this household is a great advantage let me tell you. It is well made with the magnets being firmly in place and the edges all smoothed off.

A bargain at £13.95 it is a must for any sexed child, as it will last a long time.

It gets a big thumbs up from this household.

God save our Queen

I'm sitting here watching,The Diamond Queen on BBC. I love the Queen, I have to say I have an awful lot of admadration for her. But it this way she isn't moaning about the age in retirement age is she!
She is the face of our country, and what a beautiful face she has. She looks like the most perfect Grandma and I honestly think a state of mourning will happen when she unfortunatly is no longer with us.

As she is about to celebrate her amazing Diamond Jubilee and in awe of her.

Long live the Queen x
