Book the trip of a lifetime this year by taking the family to Lapland this year. Start your trip by flying across the Arctic Circle and on landing be greeted by Santa’s reindeers. Over the course of three or four days you’ll have the chance to try tobogganing, tandem skiiing, sleigh rides, snow hockey and much more. Round the trip off with a private meeting with the man himself and don’t forget to catch the Northern Lights. It will be spectacular, we promise.

Philips Avent have unveiled their latest electric breast pump. It’s quiet and can be used anytime, anywhere. The best part is that there is no need to lean forward when you do it: the pump contains a soft massage cushion that stimulates milk flow when you’re sat upright and comfortable. What’s more, it comes with a natural bottle and teat that allows baby to latch on and feed more naturally. We also recommend the Avent 3-in-1 electric steam steriliser – ideal for sterilising breast pumps, bottles and any other equipment.
