The Summer holidays are upon us, children up and down the country will be joining in a chorus of 'Mummmmm I'm boreeed!!' The weather will keep us trapped inside no doubt for some part at least, so what to do to keep the little people entertained?

A Blogging friend of mine has a fantastic competition which may just do the trick to dispel boredom for at least some of the time.

The competition is to win £100 voucher for either Playmerrily or CraftMerrily if you have not yet heard of these amazing websites then do pop over and have a look.

They have some wonderful toys and games which are sure to keep everyone happy, with  loads of craft inspired materials and sets to keep you going all summer long.

Hama beads are something you may well have already in your cupboard, if you haven't yet tried out these fantastic beads then this is a perfect opportunity to do so.

The little plastic beads come in a variety of colours, aimed at children aged 5 and above, you peg them onto a sturdy plastic boards to create a design, then using some waxed paper and your iron, you heat your design and the beads stick together so you can then proudly display your masterpiece in a window, or where ever you choose. The only limit is your imagination and creativity because there are endless things you can create with these versatile little beads.


I haven't found a child yet who hasn't enjoyed Hama beads, all three of mine have happily sat and created various designs, and they are a simple must have for those rainy days over the holiday, needing no forward planning they are sure to entertain for longer than 5 minutes Hama beads really are one of those parents best friend products.
