Does the air feel unseasonably warm to you? Spring must be around the block. We thought we’d compile a list of things we like and what we’re listening to at the stores right now while we wait for the leaves to bud.
Pink and Blue Snuffles, (7 in. pictured) $13.00, 1 mo. – 5 yrs….
Just about as cute as Squishables (previous post). They come in different sizes plus as a rattle–adorable. Great gift for all the young babies you know. They eye you the same way your puppy might.
Alex Hot Duct Tape Fashion, $12.99, 7+…
Use Alex’s zany duct tape patterns and colors to make fashion accessories. Try the Duct Tape Tote Kit, $16.99 or the full kit, All Duct Out, $24.95 which includes 8 rolls of duct tape and all the parts to make glasses, jewelry, purse, a belt, headbands, and more!
Rocket Flip Book Kit from Fliptomania, $12.99, 3+…
Watch your own rocket ship zoom into outer space… over and over again! Teaches kids the essence of moving pictures. Includes book clips, markers, pre-drawn pages, and detailed instructions.
Swish, $12.99, 8+…
This artfully designed card game by Thinkfun–clear plastic cards with colorful layers printed on them–is a spatial game in which players must match the cards to create “swishes” by laying the cards on top of each other and seeing how the designs line up. Great for family game night. Swish is a meditative game. Includes a nylon bag for travel.
