Scootaheadz Dinosaur Timmy T Rex Review


There is one thing my children are really good at and its going really fast. Sometimes in the wrong direction but they love anything that aids it, that often involves scooters and bikes. We were recently offered the chance to review a Scootaheadz (see photo above). Son Son loves dinosaurs and he loves riding about. Sadly our scooter was to clunky for it to fit on but it fitted perfectly on Son Sons balance bike. Its so bright and cheerful makes his bike look super cool.


Attaching Timmy to the handle bars was a breeze the scootaheadz is made out of rubber so fits on to any T Bar handle bar. All it takes is three easy steps which are easy if you follow them. If your a rebel like me you will spend ages working it out then finding the packet and realising it was super easy to put on. A top tip is to wait till the Scootaheadz is room temperature or warmer as it is easier to put on.


Son Son loved it and kept on roaring like a Dinosaur (if they did nobody knows). I think it makes the balance bike look much more personalised. It came off once sprung our trip only because of a jealious older sister who wanted it on her bike. The Scootaheadz is made for scooters which makes a scooter look much more cool than before. Its not just dinosaur Scootaheadz you can get a horse and unicorn design too. All the designs are just as bright and colourful too. 


Scootaheadz retail at £14.99 and are available online and now at most larger toy shops. We personally love it well me and Son Son that is. Ami is rather Jealous she doesnt have one. Might have to buy her the unicorn one to keep hr quiet.

Loving the Small things - Getting outside

Ok Ive been a bad mum as of late, working 30 hours a week I have to admit I am sometimes shattered and just want to stay at home until school Run time, then head straight indoors for the warmth. What has happened to me I used to love the outdoors! The other day we popped down to the beach after school and I realised I need to get out more.



The babies and Asti have been rather grumpy indoors but as soon as we got outside they were happy and so was I. ok it was a little chilly but I can put up with that if it breaks some of the monotony of being indoors with the same thing everyday.  Little Bear loved running around outside and being free and Ami loved have space to explore.


We were not outside for too long it was rather chilly and getting dark but was such a lovely change. We did not go onto the prom as it was high tide and the waves were rather splashy, although Ami desperatly wanted to. I have too many memories of when I was a child running in the waves splashing over the prom yes good fun but very cold. They did not mind  at all being outside they just loved the fresh air. I need to be a bit more brave and just stick on a hat and Man Up, I need the fresh and the break of routine, I love being by the seaside I realised what I was missing being around.


So with that I will make more of an effort and although the kids do not look impressed (they never are with the camera in their face) we had a good time and needed a nice hot drink when we came home!
