Lacing Game Stocking Filler

Lacing Game Stocking Filler

This time, a lovely, long lasting stocking filler for under £1!

Thread Friends Lacing Game, 97p, suitable for age 4 years and up

Lacing games are a great way of developing fine motor skills and this one has the added fun of dressing and undressing a little creature. The aim of the game is to help the little wooden animal get dressed in their felt clothes and requires more concentration and dexterity than many other lacing games.

Once the animal has been dressed, they can be used as part of an imaginative play game.

Organic Cotton Taggie Baby Toys

Monday, July 20th, 2009

taggies-puppy-pinkekm255x300ekm1We have just taken delivery of our first parcel of the new organic range from Taggies, and my are they lovely!

Made with the same care and attention to detail as the classic Taggies, these organic ones are so soft and yummy.

The organic Taggine Blankies are 30cm square and come in a range of 4 patterns, all in soft earth-tones and all featuring 20 tags around the side, made from organic cotton and pure silk.

They are beautifully packaged on a very eco-looking card, tied with a cream coloured ribbon and would make a wonderful new baby gift.

The new Taggies Rattles are first soft toys, again complete with tags for little fingers to investigate and explore.

Made from organic cotton and with organic cotton and silk tags, they are approx 12.5cm tall.  Available in pink and blue and in bunny, puppy or bear design.
