Holidays
Talking Label Maker
We loved making labels as youngsters. We still get a kick out of organizing stuff. What better way to tell people, M-I-N-E. This label maker spells out the letters aloud as you emboss them. (The label maker pictured is no longer available. However, this one from Dymo is a fun alternative)I Spy Bags
Pop Art Camera
Kids love cameras. Granted this one is old-fashioned and takes 35mm film (consider it a history lesson for your young one), but it produces 4 pictures in the span of one second and preserves them in 4 different colors on one single print. It’s the Pop Art Camera.
Just like not all cameras are digital, not all crayons resemble shortened pencils. And that is enough reason for us to justify buying crayon rocks. Plus, the pebble shape crayons “allow small fingers to color on large, wide strokes, promoting confidence in creating art.” That sounds good to us. And, SouleMama really likes them, too.
We have professed our undying love for Charlie & Lola before. And luckily for us, the availability of their merchandise continues to grow. We hope this duo become as wealthy as the Olsen twins. The figurines pictured are no longer available but we think this Color Me Lola doll is adorable.Monchichi Monkeys
Also from our archives is the Monchichi Monkey. So, adorable and a blast from our own pasts.
