What the testers said: “A brilliant product which resulted in instant discussion; all the children wanted to have a go. We found it catered for a wide age range with many of the younger children able to join in as well. The boys absolutely loved the Nano bugs and the girls liked to use the bugs in other play. Well worth the cost and covers many of the early learning goals. We will definitely be purchasing some extra habitats to add on.”

What the testers said: “These dressing up tabards were a great success, the children really enjoyed dressing up as the different fruits and vegetables. The design of the tabards meant it was easy for the children to put them on and take them off on their own. The material is lovely and soft but very tough, very durable and excellent value for money. The tabards could be folded down and easily stored. The children still loved them at the end of the trial!”
