Skip Hop melamine plate & bowl sets

March 30, 2011 by · 1 Comment 

You know we’re weak for some cool melamine here at BG and combined with our love of all things Skip Hop, it’s taking serious restraint not to add this to our burgeoning collection of dining gear. Embracing the characters from their Zoo lunchies and backpacks, I think it goes without saying that while all are [...]

We do love a multitasking product here at BG and US designers Skip Hop are wowing with this set of three floating bath ducks ‘Dunck’ which are stackable for easy storage, and also act as rinsers – surely the kids can’t shriek their heads off when I’m rinsing out their hair with these cuties?

When I’m out and about with the babies, they’re mess magnets and I’ve had a few moments of despair as I’ve rooted around for the wipes, plus the packets also seem to find a way to open up a bit and wet other items in the bag, or…a few of them dry out. Cue something [...]
