Strada launches a new kids menu
I often take my six year old Joe into Birmingham, either to visit museums, or currently to hunt for owls. A trip to Birmingham always includes food, but, if I’m honest, Strada is not usually my first choice. But this is about to change with the launch of a new Strada Kids menu that offers delicious choices that are a world away from the ‘chicken nuggets and chips’ options that kids are so often offered.

Entitled The Me Me Me’s and starting with a little red character ‘Angry Me’, Annabelle is leaving the fashion world far behind and is instead delving into the world of often volatile children’s emotions.

Power Rangers Dino Charge
Power Rangers continue to go from strength to strength with this summer seeing the launch of Power Rangers Dino Charge Toys from Bandai. Combining the power and the excitement of Power Rangers, with a range of favourite dinosaurs, you can safely say that Power Rangers and Bandai may already have Christmas all sewn up. The undoubted star of the new range is Power Rangers Dino Charge Deluxe Megazord, a huge red, T-Rex style dinosaur that can then morph into a megazord. You do this by adding the two smaller dinosaurs that are included in this package, to the large red dinosaur to create a fearsome Megazord. If this sounds confusing…
