🦒 I have seen so many of our favourite products & brands in stores while travelling across Canada. It’s made me realise how good a selection we have right here at home. Jamie Kay snuggle bears spotted in Quebec City and our Aussie neighbours CONNETIX & Tiger Tribe in Vancouver

🦒 the sale racks are back in Palmy & online, up to 30% off some winter styles from Nature Baby, Jamie Kay, Milky, Country Road & Minti. Head on over to today’s stories for a run through sizes, styles & sale prices

🦒 Winter days + open-ended play = a surprisingly powerful combination for little developing minds. Puzzles, drawing, role play, magnetic tiles — these aren’t just ways to fill a rainy afternoon. They’re how preschoolers learn to problem-solve, create, imagine, and build the foundations of how they’ll think and learn.
Our shelves are stocked with everything you need for cosy indoor play this winter — and we’re always here to help you find the right thing for your little one. Pop in and see us. We’d love to help. 🧡

🦒 walking you through new Country Road arrivals for the girls. Perfect as we head into winter. Country Road is only available in store, you can see our range on our website & then head into stores or give them a call to courier it out to you.
Working with captions since I’m not yet coordinated enough to both talk & show to camera 😀

🦒 May is all about layers. Vests provide warmth without restriction so you have more chance of coercing them into one as they head out the door. Warmed up by lunchtime it’s off & hanging on the peg ready to be scooped up at pick up time.

🦒 those first steps are a milestone. Little shoes are cute. But how their first shoes function set your little one up to succeed.

5 things I wish every parent knew before buying their baby’s first pair of shoes.
Because it matters more than you think.
1. Fit wins over the look every time
2. The toe shape shouldn’t restrict
3. Easy to get on
4. The sole - how does it flex?
5. Reinforced toe - it gets a workout

Know someone with a little one taking their first steps? Send this their way — it might just save them a wasted pair of shoes. 👣

🦒 In a perfect world we would have exactly the same stock in every size & colour in both stores all of the time . Instead I play the stock shuffle with my often cloudy crystal ball.

Sunday: car load of restocks to top up customer favourites Palmy ➡️ Napier
Monday: courier for specific customer orders Palmy ➡️ Napier
Tuesday: car load of lasts ones Napier ➡️ Palmy
Supplier stock top ups ➡️ Palmy
Wednesday: more stock top ups Palmy ➡️ Napier

🦒staff picks from the shelves
Lauren is our person behind the scenes, the one who processes every product we range. Pulling descriptions, age recommendations and all the details that make it onto our website and into our systems. She knows our range inside out. These two made it home with her.

Orchard Toys Pop to the Shops — a proper board game with real gameplay and pretend money, that teaches kids to say please and thank you to the shopkeeper. How could we not endorse this 😉

Honeysticks Colour Mixing Bubble Bath — if you know and love the Honeysticks bath colour drops (and we know a lot of you do), this is the next chapter. Same trusted brand, different experience entirely. Where the drops are fragrance-free fizzy fun in a tin, this is a full bubble bath — super foamy, plant-based, with three mixable bottles that create six colours. More bubbles, more lather, made for little hands who want to actually do something in the tub. No nasties, no staining, no drama.
Both in store now — and genuinely great gift territory if you’ve got a birthday coming up. 🎁

🦒 this time it was even better 😀
Over twenty years in & there’s always a moment of anxiety when you cut into the box. We are really particular about what comes through the door here. So when something lands & it’s this good we just want to share it.
Come in & see for yourself, we’re busy getting it onto the hangers

🦒Honestly, this might be the best first birthday gift we’ve had land in store in a while. 🎶
Meet Ditty Bird Sound Books — just arrived and already getting a big tick from us.
Press the button on each page to start the song. Press again to stop. Slide the button on the side to control the volume (or turn sound off entirely; because sometimes you need a quiet moment, let’s be real).
The best bit? The battery is rechargeable via USB-C. Fully charged, you get around 9 hours of play time. That’s a lot of tiny fingers pressing buttons.
Beautiful for toddlers. Perfect for that first birthday. The kind of gift that gets used over and over, not forgotten under the bed by day three.
