The Measure: What’s Hot For Parents & Kids

NickWatch: The NEW Connected Smartwatch for Kids

Nickelodeon has teamed up with Watchinu to create NickWatch, the brand-new smartwatch for kids. Offering a wealth of entertainment based on Nickelodeon’s iconic and award-winning characters, NickWatch features a variety of games, dances, crafts, music, safe connectivity, communication and customisation, making this a must-have accessory for kids.

The connected smartwatch features characters from a range of beloved Nickelodeon series, including Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, SpongeBob SquarePants and more. NickWatch also allows parents to monitor their child’s use of the watch and, most importantly, keep track of their child’s location via the ‘NickWatch Caretaker App.’

Parental controls

NickWatch includes eight key features to provide an imaginative and explorative environment for children (and their parents), helping to spark intuitive play.  NickWatch comes with two straps (one simple strap and one Snazzy strap featuring famous Nickelodeon characters) and the Connect-O-Cable (USB charger) in the box.

From May, new games will be released every couple of months, along with new stickers and watch face designs, new sound effects, musical instruments and voice filters.

 

NEW Towel Collection, Roarsome

Award-winning British children’s wear brand Roarsome are excited to launch a new beach towel range.

Totally waterproof on the outside, so they don’t get damp or get sandy with super soft, extra cosy cotton towelling on the inside. Roarsome’s new towel collection have animal-themed features on the hoods and poppers on the sides to keep out the sea breeze. They also feature snug double hand pockets for getting warm after a swim, and when not being worn, they can be laid flat on the sand for little afternoon naps!

Whether it’s a trip to the beach, swimming pool or just a bath at home, these towels will make every adventure more Roooooarsome!

Feather Down Farm

Want a summer holiday that allows everyone in the family to completely switch off, reset and reconnect? A total digital detox for the whole family?

Then, Feather Down is the perfect answer.

With 29 farms around the UK (Somerset; Cornwall; Devon; Lancashire; Norfolk; Cumbria etc.), Feather Down offers an escape to the simple things in life – no screens, no deadlines, and no stress.

The fabulous canvas hideaways have three bedrooms (including a cosy cupboard bed which the children will just love!), a fully equipped kitchen, wood burning stove, toilet and en suite shower. You’ll have everything you need to be more than comfortable but with all the magic of sleeping under canvas. Imagine the relaxing, crackling sounds of a fire, and the soothing, quiet chattering of the birds. Think roasted marshmallows, muddy kids in even muddier wellies, the starriest night skies, but most brilliantly of all, proper TIME TOGETHER.

Many farms offer additional activities; pony grooming; fishing; farm tours; hot tubs and more. Wherever you are in the UK, you’ll find a Feather Down farm just a 2 / 3-hour drive from home. Or, if you fancy a farm holiday a little further afield, you’ll find Feather Down farms in countries across Europe too.

The iconic nursery brand Sweet Dreamers is delighted to announce it has partnered with The Lullaby Trust, the UK’s leading safer sleep charity.

Collaborating on the brand’s innovative Misty the Smart Cloud, together, the duo are dedicated to promoting safer sleep for all babies.

The team at Sweet Dreamers are passionate about supporting healthy sleep patterns for all the family for well over a decade through their range of innovative sleep solutions.

Misty’s room thermometer is truly invaluable, helping to ensure parents and carers have the perfect room environment for safer sleep, and this function stood out the most to The Lullaby Trust. A soothing colour-coded temperature gauge and digital numerical display clearly shows when parents need to adjust bedding, tog ratings, clothing and/or the overall room temperature, reassuring them they will always have the optimum conditions for safer sleep.

Walk to School Week (15th – 19th May)

National Walking Month is home to Walk to School Week – a national incentive to encourage children to walk to school and increase their weekly exercise. Children are encouraged to exercise for at least 60 minutes daily, and walking to and from school can help them reach this target.

The five-day walking challenge celebrates the walk to school and is the perfect activity for parents to get their steps in as part of National Walking Month. This fun and engaging week-long activity has been built to make pupils experience first-hand the importance of walking to school, and not only does this help reduce air pollution and congestion from the roads, but it is a completely free way of getting your little ones to school.

Not only that, this year’s challenge encourages children to learn about the important reasons to walk and the difference it can make for individuals, communities and the planet!
