Welcome to the latest edition of Baby Matters. Temperatures have been through the roof lately, and we know how hard it can be to keep you and your baby comfortable. To help you make the most of the summer we've put together hints on coping with hot weather. We also take a look at how children learn through play with the help of educational toys.

We've launched our
new catalogue online so check out our latest ways to stay stylish through your pregnancy. There's a new nursing section on the site, and to show everything in fantastic detail we've introduced image zoom technology!

Annabel Karmel, leading author on preparing food for children, has selected three delicious recipes this month, and in our competition you can win a Cool Kit of products to keep you and you baby's temperature down.


Best Wishes
Judy & Vivienne
