Hama Basic

It's Hama time!

Advantages: Keeps your kids entertained so you can come on Ciao
Disadvantages: Hours spent picking the beads up off the floor.

No this isn't a review on Mc Hammer lol, it's Hama bead time in our house. Ever wonder how I can spend so much time on Ciao when it's half term & I have four daugthers?? Well now you will discover my secret.... Four years ago my eldest daughter came back from a dinner date with a school friend of hers clutching a pretty heart shape made from little beads that were stuck together. She was really taken with this new craze & talked to me for what seemed like hours about these little plastic beads & what you can do with them. After much begging & pleading I took the girls into town to see what this craze was all about. On entering our local toy shop we were met by rows & rows of plastic bags containing pretty little plastic beads, such a choice of colours.

Review of Hama Beads

Hama House of Hurrahs

Advantages: U3 mobile technology and storage features
Disadvantages: 2GB of storage is too small for most

HAMA FLASHPEN USB Storage - 2GB Hama House of Hurrahs ------------------------------ The lost phrase book of USB gadgetries became apparent for me while hurdling through storage concepts and means recently when expressing what is available in U3 technologies. Is it supposedly called a stick or key or pen and I realized quickly that the client hadn't a Dickens what I was talking about. Sending the information via portable device was alien to his grey matter, he didn't know what a FlashPen was. He thought it was a writable fancy pen, so confusion contorted his face rather alarmingly. I quickly explained and thought not to go into the features as not to diverse to much from the original conversation. - I'm glad I didn't use the 'Hama' brand as I normally would for those who are at ease with portable devices. I'm also pleased ...
