The Chainsmokers make a hit
Alex Pall and Andrew Taggart
The Chainsmokers (Alex Pall and Andrew Taggart) are back, with a song that's so keeping with a vibe that it's trademark now — laidback, Californian cool that you will play in your car as you road-trip. The Feeling, featuring singer Kelsea Ballerini, will leave you hopeful and optimistic about the future. Yeah, yeah, it's that kind of song, with lyrics such as, "But you're the one that I want, if that's really so wrong, Then they don't know what this feeling is like." Ditto.

Healthy treats
Mumum Co
Two entrepreneurs, Farah Nathani Menzies and Shreya Lamba, have launched Mumum Co, a healthy snack brand for kids. We tried three flavours: beetroot, banana and strawberry, and rice and barley, because, well, food is food. All three were mildly flavoured, and it's the crunchiness that made us pop them like Cheeslings. But, if you're looking for something typically tasty, these might disappoint.

No more stereotypes
Pink and Blue
Rigid gender stereotypes, limit the way we think. An endearing new book for children, Pink and Blue (Puffin Books) written by Ritu Vaishnav and illustrated by Vishnu M Nair, makes a good case for questioning gender roles. From it being okay for both boys and girls liking pink and blue, and cooking, or having long or short hair, the truly short book is an important one for parents to read to their kids, if possible, every day.
