Let it be known that I am hopeless at posting things and I have only just this morning managed to post a 2nd birthday gift which has been waiting since last May. I know – shocking! Now that I have *finally* handed it over to the Royal Mail I feel able to share it with […]

Rubber stamping is more than a tad cool and certainly adds that homemade, I put in a bit of effort touch to your gifting. Lollipop Designs do these stamp sets, where you can either buy a set of 3 different designs (there are several to choose from including woodland, action, and Easter themes) are assembled […]
I Got 99 Problems But a Bib Ain’t One
I’ve been a Jay-Z fan since the beginning of his career so of course I was watching when he appeared on Jonathan Ross on Friday and quickly knocked down Jonathan’s pitches to ‘duet’ with him. Jason Manford the very funny comedian was on before him and showed off this hand screenprinted bib by hip hop […]
Speekee – Spanish Learning Programme
The boyf has a thing about learning to speak Spanish (owns a load of learn to speak Spanish books from his bachelor days) and is also keen for the bambino now 33 months to get acquainted with another language, so I was curious to check out Speekee, a total immersion Spanish learning programme which is […]
Cookie Cutters from Funky Muffin
There is nothing like a good collection of cookie cutters. We love a bit of baking in our house and there is little more satisfying than a quick batch of biscuits. I am rather partial to interestingly shaped cutters and they go down a storm with kids too. Funky Muffin have a superb collection priced […]
Nameberry’s Hottest Baby Name Trends for 2010
Choosing a name is not always easy. I know some people who have their names chosen from many years ago, but for a lot of us, especially if we have a thing about individual style, choosing a name becomes a major task. Last year I raved about Nameberry (see my previous post), an online guide […]
Things To Do With Toddlers Resource: Kids Craft Weekly
We have a bit of cabin fever in our home due to the lock-in caused by the snow, which means we’ll have to ramp up the activities for the bambino so that we can keep her occupied…and we don’t lose our minds! Snow or not, finding things to do with your toddler is not always […]
Luxe Factor: Alpaca Knitted Hut by Lucky Boy Sunday
All this cold weather has me dreaming of taking up residence in this knitted alpaca cabana by Danish designers Lucky Boy Sunday. Alpaca is a lightweight, eco-friendly fiber with insulating properties, that has a similar feel to cashmere.

Room Tour: New England Nursery
When North London based Deborah aka Metropolitan Mum showed off her recently finished nursery for her 7 month old daughter, Little L, on her blog recently, I thought it was only right that she showed off the transformed space which has gone from clapped out and busted, to preppy, minimalist New England space. A tiny […]
Fairytale Prints by The Yellow House
All little girls (and some little boys) love fairytale princesses, but fairytale-themed art can sometimes be overly cutesy, old-fashioned or Disneyfied. Which is why we love love love Folksy seller The Yellow House’s take on it. Quirky and modern, the limited-edition screenprints feature a cool blue Cinderella or a feisty scarlet Little Red Riding Hood. […]

If you’re looking for an out-of-this-world pressie for a little boy, then you could do much worse than this larger-than-life stuffed robot, £50 (plus £6 p&p) by Folksy seller Needles and Buttons. Fab as a cushion on a nursery chair or an over-sized favourite toy, team it with Spin Collective’s blackboard sticker and the cool […]
Kidorable Animal Umbrellas
I must be going through an ‘umbrella moment’ as I mentioned the Celia Birtwell one on Nest Goodies (it’s back in stock), Djeco’s bamboo delights, and now the very playful pirate umbrella by Kidorable, as held by Mathilda Ledger on the Droolicious blog yesterday. The quirk with these kiddy cute umbrella’s is the pop […]
Djeco Umbrella’s & Paper Lanterns
I’m shocked at myself for not mentioning Djeco, the fabulous French toymaker for a while, but with the ‘C Season’ (I’ll officially say the word once it’s November) coming, you’ll see plenty more. For decorative goodness, their umbrella’s and paper lanterns are the hotness & very wallet friendly at £13.95 and £8.95 each respectively. Umbrella’s […]

Contemporary and retro animal inspired buys are a big trend with kids gear, especially our well documented grand love affair with owls and a recent interest in horses.

Latitude Enfant Magic Hat & Veggie Garden Soft Toys
I’m a huge fan of Latitude Enfant soft toys for babies, because they transcend your bog standard soft toy and rattle by creating an imaginative themed experience that’s beautifully presented and very high quality. Their latest additions of a magic hat and veggie garden are fantastic! The veggie garden is suitable from six months […]
Hot Birdie Buys for Babies and Toddlers
I’ve never been shy about proclaiming my love for all things owl-ish, but I must confess to a more general obsession with bird-based goodies. Helene Ige’s Birds of a Feather and Djeco’s Flights of Fancy mobiles were both given to my little one when he was born and I wasn’t able to resist Bold & […]

Sarah from Stratford-Upon-Avon is almost 39 weeks pregnant and is eagerly awaiting her surprise delivery.

Punctuating the […]
Musical Toadstool
I’m quite charmed by this wooden musical toadstool. Wind it up and it revolves a woodland scene to the theme music from Dr Zhivago. A gorgeous decorative piece to adorn their shelves and get nostalgic over for years to come, it’s £18 from Cox & Cox
