WIN Loot toys, books, movies and games for your kids, niece, grandson
Guys. Last year I partnered with Loot and I ordered all of the below from them. I hand-picked every item according to my boys’ interests and attention spans, because every mother knows what it’s like to spend so much time and monies getting a toy for their child – and watching them lose interest within seven and a half minutes. It sucks. We know. Over the years I’ve learned what works and what really doesn’t with the boys. The winners are always books, movies, learning games and play pretend.
Below are all the items that I chose from Loot. The boys’ favorites are… Ben LOVES the Spot’s Alphabet, colors & shapes movie, and Charlie and Lola – obviously. The Sylvanian Families – Chocolate Rabbit Family Set (the bunnies) are adorable! Ben and Noah both love dressing them and I act out little family situations with them, like the boy bunny crying “I want juiiiiiiice” and I make the boys guess who this bunny is, etc. They love it!
Noah is infatuated with the toaster, as you can push it down and it really does pop up when it’s ‘ready’. I admit I have no idea where the kettle is right now, but it whistles. Wherever it is. The Yookidoo Flow ‘n Fill Spout (bath tap) is probably his favorite. Water is drawn up through the spout creating an endless stream and 3 interchangeable tumblers each have a different spouting action. It really is awesome! The boys can play with running water in the tub without sinking the house.
The ready-set-school hasn’t arrived just yet, but this is what I am MOST excited about. It’s a whole activity box for Benjamin. Noah has started school, so this set will be for bunny to be home-schooled and also feel special and have ‘play play’ school with the nanny during the day. I can’t tell you how it breaks my heart when we ALL leave for work in the day and Ben gets left behind! Does a mother’s guilt ever end? The school set is arriving any day now and I’ll get pictures in!
Guys, Loot has agreed to let me give ALL of these away to you. Every single thing mentioned and pictured below, but let’s recap: I am giving away The Cat in the Hat book by Dr Seuss (Hardcover). A Charlie and Lola BBC DVD, a nice oldie – Goof Troop series, volume one and a learning movie – Spot’s Alphabet, colours and numbers too. Then The Sylvanian Families – Chocolate Rabbit Family. Loot has the Sylvanian family houses, other sets, characters and furniture. If you have a girl, you can get the whole set, wardrobes, extras. So much cooler than barbies – see the whole series on the Loot site. Then the Casdon Classique Breakfast Set, and the Yookidoo Flow ‘n Fill Spout.
In all sincerity, I love Loot – delivery is quick, to your door. The prices are so great (about R52.00 for a kiddies DVD) and there are always specials. It’s easy to search for things, you can search classics, genres, ages – it’s so user friendly. They state delivery days on each item ex “24 hours” or “within 7 days”. They have loads of books, games, computers, toys, electronics, DVDs. I am a huge fan of online shopping, because going in to a shopping center with two toddlers on payday Saturday is just not advisable.
ANYWAY. To win, leave me a comment and tell me what you like about Loot. I am not choosing winners by best answers, I really just want you guys to click through to Loot for one second and see what I’m talking about and why I’m so in your face about how great they are. Leave a comment with your name and email address to be in it.
You can only enter once, family & staff of Loot may not enter, this is open to SA residents only. The names will be printed out and Noah or Ben will draw the name on Thursday, 7 March – after supper.

Wow my son would go crazy for the Flow n Fill Spout as well as the kitchen equipment as he loves to role play – play pretend. I also love the school readiness package and see him having lots of fun on a cold day inside being creative and learning. Loot really supplies wonderful educational toy/movies for children, that and the door -door delivery = winner!. They are brilliant!

LOOT is by far the most affordable online store with the best choice, largest selection of categories and best customer service. I was able to get a university book for my step-daughter faster than any other retailer in the country! She is the ONLY one in her class with this text-book thanks to LOOT!

Loot really is the best – they can get you any book at a blistering speeds. I special ordered a book for University – and Loot got it for me so fast, my daughter is the ONLY one in her class of a few hundred that has the book – thanks to LOOT. Also great selection of products and great support.

I’ve been buying from Loot for years. It’s the first place I look for anything because no one else can beat their prices, especially on books and I’m book mad. They make it financially possible for a parent show their child (children) the world of books and a student to study. Love Loot.co.za to bits.

Loot is really one of the best, if not the best, online stores in South Africa. The selection of products is great and their customer service and social media really takes the cake compared to other S.A online stores.
It’s the first place I look when I’m looking to buy online!

I became a fan of Loot.co.za last year when you initially did a post about them. Since then I’ve ordered so many things from including my hubby’s Chrismas present.
The things my kids would enjoy most are the books and the school kit.

When I first came to SA, I was astounded at the prices of books. Prohibitively expensive! However the misery ended when my wife introduced me to loot.co.za. Now loot.co.za is no longer about just books. It has games, toys, electoronics and much more. I am so glad to see the success and development that loot.co.za has achieved over the year.
Keep on evolving!
