I am absolutely thrilled to be joining the team at Junior Magazine as a judge in the Junior Design Awards 2015 for the second year running.

Last year, we spent hours ogling gorgeous nursery furniture, debating the best family hotels, and road-testing some seriously impressive buggies, nappy bags, baby-carriers and car seats. We chatted top toys to favourite kids’ fashion items, the very best family breaks away to inspirational children’s books, and I was really honoured to spend time with some fabulous men and women who also sat on the panel. This September we’ll be doing it all over again and, if you have a boutique, label or book of your own that you want considered, it isn’t (quite) too late to enter. Categories will be closed this Thursday July 30th so, if you’re not yet on there and plan to enter, do sign up now.

Alongside me will be the lovely weather presenter and geologist, Kirsty McCabe, Kelly Beswick and notanothermummyblog‘s Alison Perry, as well as Junior’s very own Catherine Hudson. We’ll be covering lifestyle, food and drink, travel, toys and books. Fashion, accessories, beauty and interiors will be overseen by a lovely crew including Rachel Stevens. The Junior Design Awards are synonymous with great design, practicality and safety and it’ll be wonderful to see what entries we get to consider this Autumn.

So, if you’re keen to enter a product, simply click here but, remember, you need to do it before this Thursday!
