Congratulations to Justine Meyer, the winner of The Business Mum’s Journal goodies competition!

Thanks to the following businesses for supplying the prizes:

 

  Waterproof phone case (Page 11)
We found The LifeProof Series of cases invaluable. They allowed us relax and chill out without thinking about the safety of our precious devices. Having pesky kids around has previously led to allsorts of technological and communication screen breakages… They are waterproof, drop proof and dust proof, ensuring your screen’s are safe! Available from  Amazon and www.lifeproof.com/en.
Starfish pendant necklace (Page 16)
This gorgeous necklace is a great choice for all you sea-lovers. The pendant is flat on the reverse allowing space for a few words of text – add a name, special seaside destination and a year, a heartfelt message… the choice is yours. The pendant has been hand-made from scratch in North Wales and comes on an understated sterling silver necklace which lets the pendant do the talking.  From £58 for 16″ chain (plus £3.50 p&p). Order from www.jwls.co.uk/starfish-necklace-snake

And to match the festival trolley we found this cute oil cloth bag that holds it all.  Perfect for a festival as it easily wipes clean. www.thelittlebritishcompany.co.uk £35.00 
Reversible sun hats
You can tell that these hats are designed by a mum – they come with a small tab on which to write a name, and a chin strap to keep hats on heads.  Two styles in one, which sided will they choose?  The only thing they can’t choose is not to wear one – we all know how important it is that kids wear a hat in the sun.  Problem solved. Come in sizes 6 – 12 months, 1 – 3 years or 3 – 6 years from www.double-flip.com £13.50
