Christmas gifts



I have always loved Ikea. I am always overwhelmed at Ikea but I have always loved it. We don't live in an Ikea house but many many key pieces have been purchased at the blue and yellow box. Which is funny because I abhor the other blue box. (you know who you are)

Looking ahead toward Christmas with a one year old and wanting to get him something but not wanting the house to turn into a plastic jungle has me already looking. Leave it to Ikea to save the day.


There are three of these little guys each cuter than the next and at $7.99 an affordable wooden toy.


On the higher end you have...

Wild Flower Organics and their unbelievably gorgeous push toy. Also a beautiful toy that does not have the potential for lead poisoning. I don't know how I feel about my house being upstaged by a toy though.






Then I found Fat Brain Toys. Very affordable toys that would interest any future hybrid driving, plastic bag nixing, organic baby/toddler. I am especially fond of the pound and roll as Little bean loves to hit things. I sure am hoping he outgrows that soon.
