January 23, 2012 by · Leave a Comment 

I have friends (a couple) called Polly & Joe, so I liked this online store before I’d even seen what they sold. And what it is is a small but perfectly formed collection of toys, clothes, art, nursery decor and changing bits from a few well-curated labels. Think toys from Ferm Living, tops and bodysuits [...]

10 Best: Jigsaw puzzles

January 20, 2012 by · Leave a Comment 

Of all the myriad delights that Santa delivered this year, the jigsaw puzzles have proved to be a huge hit with Alfie. We regularly have mammoth afternoon sessions where we have to complete all five and I’m already getting to the stage where I think I might have to buy some more. So, I thought [...]

I love Scandi company Sebra who make a wide range of toys, decor and furniture including our favourite cotbed the Kili. I am currently lusting after their shelving units.

Danish design team Sebra are the hotness in interior products for kids and are behind the Killi cot I’d love to own but the boyf said it would only be in my dreams as it’s EUR 900… Anyway, not all things Sebra are a chunky piece of change and I’m loving this cleverly designed, multitasking [...]
