Come fly with me

Now funky is not usually a word I like to describe our bits & bobs but have decided that there is just no other way to describe these, well, funky new backpacks we've just got in from Zid Zid kids. I love them! Made with silver vinyl and trimmed with colourful embroidery, I think it's just the thing for your little aviator's toys, snacks and books.

Gums that aren't glum

Well it seems my darling niece (I do realise I'm wearing rose coloured glasses, but really, isn't she just the SWEETEST thing!) is already teething. Poor gal. The good news is we've been able to try out first-hand our cute Sophie le girafe on her gums and let me say she loves it! Sophie, is hand-made in France in exactly the same way as when she was first produced in 1961. Not only is she lovely to look at and squeak she provides genuine relief for infants during teething. She is unbreakable and the only teething toy in the world made from 100% rubber and decorated with food paints. I just love her retro colours and lines, a real child of the Sixties...
