The people at suppose.com sent us the LEGO movie to review!
It's no big secret that my children really enjoy LEGO. A LOT. They also really enjoy movies, so you can imagine how excited they were to watch and review the LEGO movie.


We all sat down together, as a family to watch The Lego Movie. Which is the first ever full length theatrical LEGO movie. We settled down with some snacks ready to watch the movie. I think I was just as excited as the kids to be honest, haha.
It's a really lovely family movie for all ages. The movie follows a little LEGO guy called Emmet who is an average LEGO mini figure who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person in the world! He is drafted into an epic quest to stop an evil tyrant and save the world!
I won't give too much away. There are some funny parts, which the little's and I had a good giggle to.

Charlie really loved that it was of course "Lego themed" because he really does love LEGO.The kids also loved the song "Everything is awesome" and it really IS a song you just can not get out of your head.
Ellie and Harry thought it was "Hilariously Funny" and will more than likely watch it again in the very near future.

The kids really, really loved this movie and will probably watch it over and over again! 
I would definitely recommend this for anyone to watch! Especially those who love LEGO. I also feel that this DVD would make a lovely gift, too.

I was sent a copy of 'The Lego Movie' for the purpose of this review. I was no paid for this post and all opinions are my own, honest, personal opinion.

I can't believe it's already 11th November!! Time is going way too fast.
I really need to get my thinking cap on regarding Christmas. Especially now I've seen the coke-a-cola "The holidays are coming" advert, lol. LOVE that advert! I think my grandparents are possibly coming over to ours on Christmas day - weather permitting. They live a good 45 mins drive away and my granddad can't drive in the snow/ice. Not that far anyway! We would really love them to come for Christmas.I've got our Christmas day meal plan almost complete (Will share that closer the time!!).

I also need to figure out what to get the kids for Christmas. Ellie's main present is sorted, I think I know what to get the boys for there main present and I'd like to get them all some new PJ's and slippers but as for everything else.. I've got no idea! LEGO is a good idea for them all because they all play with that together really well and they all enjoy it, too! Ha, so do I :-P such a big kid. I really do need to have a good long think about it though.

I haven't even got a Christmas tree. My cat ruined our one last year. I have however, had a look about to price some up! I've seen a couple that I like but hoping they either go on sale or they bring the price down lol. One can wish. I've seen some lovely Christmas decorations for tree's, too. See, the cat also ruined those last year too! And now my cat (that was a kitten last year) has grown out of the kitten stage and isn't really interested in everything that lights up, moves or balls... I now have another kitten who I dare say will find Christmas very entertaining.. Oh the joys lol!


As far as presents go at this moment in time, I really haven't brought a lot :-/ I'm not organised AT ALL! Ugh. I say every year "I will start early next year and be done with Christmas shopping by November" But I never do, lol! Am I the only one who says this but it just never happens? I keep seeing people's posts on Facebook saying "I've finished my Christmas shopping" And I'm sitting over here like "Errrm, I have hardly even given it a thought let alone finished!!" lol. At least I've brought some Christmas cards and wrapping paper. And the odd food item.. so far. So that is at least something....

I really do love Christmas and I am excited about it, the lead up to Christmas though, is just very stressful! Although, it is all totally worth it because Christmas is only once a year! I love spending time with the family, all the lovely food, the Xmas tunes and the cozy Christmas films. Now just need to get organised so I can enjoy all of those things! :) I'm gong to get started on our winter bucket list, in the very near future too!

What are your plans for Christmas?

LEGO® is very, very popular in our house! It's one of the only toys that my three children will actually sit down nicely and play together. So when I was asked to review some LEGO® from Argos I was ever so excited. You can never, ever have enough LEGO. You can never spend too much time playing with LEGO, either! Lego is for all ages. In fact, I don't think I know anyone who doesn't like LEGO.

The LEGO creative bucket.

We were sent this lovely LEGO® creative bucket. And creative it certainly is! This bucket of LEGO is age four and over. It includes an instruction book, full of building ideas! It contains so many different LEGO bricks, all different shapes and sizes, to build lots of creative things with.I feel that the creative bucket of LEGO® would make a perfect starter kit or to add to any collection.


The kids could not wait to get stuck into it! Even Harry (aged 10) loves LEGO and he doesn't really ever play with toys but LEGO is an exception. LEGO really encourages them all to play together. This kept the kids entertained for a good couple of hours.They made all kinds of things, they really used there imaginations! Charlie made a truck from the instructions booklet (The booklet great for inspiration!)and Ellie made an enclosure for her giraffe.

Charlies (age 8) truck           Ellie's (age 6) Giraffe enclosure.

I honestly think the LEGO® creative bucket is well worth £19.99. It contains so many different, bright bricks in many shapes and sizes and endless fun for the little ones (and adults! Even I had fun playing with this, lol). LEGO is perfect for a family activity and encourages everyone to play together. Argos sell a good selection of LEGO and all reasonably priced, too. The creative bucket would make the perfect gift for any child over the age of 4 years old.



 We were also sent a LEGO Friends assortment playset which Ellie loved! She built this all by herself.
