Spotted! Brilliant Little Wooden Noah’s Ark Set.

I genuinely love this set. The problem I always had with most arks was that they were so darned BIG. Which is lovely for young toddlers (though inconvenient to store and lug around!). But older children love to play with animals too – my 6yr old adores them. But she prefers little animals that feel special, secretive, and ‘hers’. This set would be perfect. It’s charmigly stylish, sweet enough to be fun –...

Spotted! PERFECT Traditional Bucket & Spade set…

One think I positively loathe is the way every child’s toy has been turned into a plastic monstrosity. So when I find a little gem of old-fashioned style and build quality, I whoop with glee. Just look at this bucket and spade set! Gloriously bold and bright, with sheet metal construction that will last for years and wooden handles that are just waiting for small hands to love them (no more awkward rubbish plastic bucket handles...
