1)  Crealamp by Minui- I think this is a great concept. By putting children’s drawings on display you show them that their art is special and something to be proud of, therefore promoting their creativity and encouraging them to draw as much as their hearts desire!

2)  “Light of Moon” Humpy Dumpy bookend- I love this range. The Humpty Dumpy is my favourite with his cute little side-ways smile and his little tuff of hair. I probably get more of a kick out of seeing him around the store than the children do but this does seem to be the pattern for bookends in bebe. 

3)  Pocket Kite- My partner gave me a double handed stunt kite as a gift this year and we have had heaps of fun flying it. I say no person is too old or too small to find pleasure in flying a kite! The pocket kite is a great start for the young ones. The Seedling Design Your Own Box Kite is another fantastic kite idea to get all ages involved and proud of flying their personalised kite! Go kites!!

4)  Micro scooter range- Who can go past these scooters?? Apparently our customers can’t and their popularity shows, with these scooters all over the city. And with the mini, maxi and monster, everyone in the family can have one!

5)  Waterbugs Boon bath toy- I couldn’t decide which Boon bath toy is my favourite but know from the children I have baby sat, and from what I can remember about myself, children love to scoop up toys and bubbles in the bath again and again and again. But really, I think that all of Boons products are fabulous and also happen to be one of the best selling product lines at bebe. Each time I see the ducks I can’t help thinking of my eldest brother singing “Rubber ducky you’re the one. You make bath time so much fun.” Perhaps the theme song in bebe should go “Boon you’re the one….”

The Lovely Carina has provided us with her Top 5 Christmas Picks:

1.) The Very Hungry Caterpillar Pop-Up Book – This book is a classic and will last throughout the times.  The bright colours and simple pictures/storyline are easy for children to grasp and love.  Every child I read this to falls in love just as I did when I was a child.

2.) Good Things For Boys/Girls – These products are great!!!  What girl doesn’t want to learn how to use a Knitting Nancy in their life?  And juggling…what boy doesn’t want to learn this valuable skill?  Bright and colourful these packs are great fror the kids, not to mention mum, dad, grandma, grandpa and anyone else who was once a young child.

3.) Make your own Box Kite – This is the most fun a kid can have!!!  Not only designing their own kite but assembling it and watching it soar above them.  What could be more joyous than that?

4.) Up and Away Wall Stickers – These stickers are a great addition to any nursery.  They add a fun and retro feel that both children and adults can enjoy and appreciate.

5.) Weego Glass Bottles Orange/Yellow – These essential items are amazing.  Not only are they free of all nasties but they can safely be put through the dishwasher and they look amazing and funky to boot!
