New Year, New Stuff


We just got back from a very fun and productive trip to the New York International Gift Fair. We had a great time buying new toys, clothes and games to add to the site. We are especially excited about some of our new brands like the awesome, eco friendly things from kidsonroof. Kidsonroof is a cool company from Holland that uses simple cardboard plus kids imagination to create incredible toys. First, we have their Totem building sets for ages 7 and up. These consist of 130 cardboard cards that can be used to create four amazing models or anything else your kid can dream up. A perfect birthday gift!

Over the holidays I purchased the Kidsonroof house for my two girls. It is a 100% recycled cardboard box that folds into a playhouse. Now, we have had pop up playhouses before. They all came with drawings that showed how easy it was to fold them back into a perfect, compact circle...but we could never figure them out, so we rarely used them. I can vouch for the easy set up and clean up of this one!It comes folded flat for easy storage and is easily assembled into a playhouse with windows and doors. It is meant to be decorated, but I still can't trust my kids with markers in the house so we left ours plain :)
