Great printable: Made By Joel colouring sheets
We love a great colouring sheet, so much so that we have no need to buy colouring books (unless they’re pretty fabulous like Mon Petit Art and Rosie Flo). Inspirational artist, designer and dad Joel has become renowned for his simple take on making arts and crafts accessible for kids. With the summer holidays coming […]

Swimwear for toddlers
Although the weather can’t seem to make it’s mind up at the moment, it’s not long until June when the sun should be shining and we all get our paddling pools out or head to the airport for our summer holidays. With this in mind, I’ve been having a scout around to see what swimwear […]
New Runaway dress collection by Welsh designers Bread and Jam
[slideshow_deploy id=’57341′] We’ve been fans of Welsh label Bread and Jam’s apron-style dresses since they launched a few years ago and we’re loving their new Runaway collection. All made in Wales from 100% cotton with their trademark front pocket for stowing treasures and trinkets along with a mix of retro inspired and floral prints, there […]
You Say That You Love Me vintage fabric beanbags
[slideshow_deploy id=’56155′] I’m not really a lover of things vintage floral in a Cath Kidston shabby chic way, but give me a 70s orange and brown chrysanthemum and I’ll all yours. No wonder then that I’m head over heels for these fabulous beanbags, by the even more fabulously named You Say That You Love Me. […]
The BG guide to… cots and cot beds
After last week’s guide to cribs, cradles and bassinets, I thought we should look at the options for bigger babies and toddlers. Cot beds are a really good buy as they can last from around the six month mark up to (sometimes) seven years. Nat and I both had Brio Sleeps – now sadly discontinued, […]

Funkywalls Red Boats wallpaper
I am a HUGE wallpaper fan, I even have a wallpaper Pinterest board, so obviously seeing this fabulous print for just £34.44 a roll ticked a whole load of boxes. It’s from Belgium-based Funkywalls and is designed by Lavmi-Babeta Ondrova, from the Kiss for Kids collection. It’s a non-woven wallpaper, printed with water-based inks. If you love this, check out the other vintage, retro […]
Hop Like a Bunny
On her About page, Maria Torregrosa, owner of London-based Hop Like a Bunny says she only buys things she loves and that she’d want her children to wear. It shows. This is a small, immaculately curated collection of goodies from across the globe, featuring a few big brands, such as Birkenstock, Petit Bateau and Maileg, alongside […]
Swoon! New Ingela P Arrhenius Nesting Dolls
These nesting dolls by deliciously retro-inspired illustrator Ingela P Arrhenius are the hotness! There’s the animal set which features an owl, polar bear, fox, black cat, monkey, and little pig and then there’s the owls which seem to have my name all over them. They of course each nest snuggly inside one another and will […]
Grubbies denim childrenswear
 I’ve been dying to tell you about this hot new Brit label ever since Nat and I clocked their gorgeous wares at Bubble back in January. And now, finally, you can get your grubby little hands on your very own Grubbies. The collection is largely denim, with four dungarees-based styles. 1 Gummies, £28, are super-soft […]
Cool Children’s Glasses Frames
Several friends have children who now need glasses and to say the selection available at most High Street opticians is woeful is understating the situation. If you don’t fancy Disney pink or Ben10 you’re often out of luck. This year, two ranges designed for children have really stood out as beacons in the desert. Â […]
Les Gambettes
I harbour a not-so-secret love of Formica. The beautiful colours and patterns in vintage Formica furniture are a thing of wonder to me. So when I heard about Les Gambettes and their stunning Formica furniture I was overcome with the wanties! They have created a range of Formica chairs and desks in retro pastel shades […]
Sun Hats for Girls
Although the weather may be a little unpredictable at the moment, a must have investment for all your little ladies has to be a great sun hat. Here’s five that are making my purse twitch right now. Millie Manu’s Panama with a Liberty tana lawn band is a leading contender. Available from 18 months to adult sizing and […]
Inspiration: Alfie’s monster birthday party
Still finding it hard to believe, but my little boy turned three a couple of weeks ago. He was adamant he wanted a monster party and being eight months pregnant I decided to outsource this year – the problem with toddler parties is that you’re not just catering for 15 children, but potentially 30 adults […]
Isossy Children
I love Isossy Children, a childrenswear label with African and Asian influences delivered with a modern twist. Until recently it was all about the girls, but designer Amanda has introduced some boys pieces to the range including these deliciously retro trousers (matching jacket also available) that have caused me to have the Shaft theme tune […]
Organic Potato Stamp Star Bedding by Quick Brown Fox of Dulwich
We’re superfan’s of kids bedding company Quick Brown Fox of Dulwich’s vintage and retro inspired sheets and duvet sets. The latest addition is this organic bedding set featuring potato stamped swirls of stars with a lovely thick cotton underside. While it is blue, it’s blue done in a cool way especially as the stars have […]
Jennifer vandenBrand Robots & Trikes lampshade
It’s so difficult to find decent lampshades for boys’ rooms – they’re always emblazoned with cartoon characters or cars… or both. Which is why I like this refreshingly retro one from from Jennifer vandenBrand in bright cobalt (the colour for spring 2012) featuring catapults, trikes, robots and spinning tops. I have to say I’m less […]
10 Best: ideas for a tree-themed room
The branches may be bare at the moment, but I can’t help but think of spring and greenery. Although far removed from trad teddies and bunnies, trees are a fantastic unisex theme for a nursery – great if you don’t know what flavour you’re expecting. Designers love them as well – there’s a veritable forest […]
