Banjo is the gorgeous creation of Lynn Roberts who blogs over at Molly Chicken. He comes with his own teddy, blanky, shrinky dink charms, quilt and carry cot.

He is up for auction on Ebay – the auction ends on the 2nd of June. AJ is luck enough to be the owner of one of Lynn’s toys which arrived last Christmas and we can’t recommend her work enough – her attention to detail, craftsmanship and quirky characters are almost perfect.

Firstly, there’s Clay Play which includes four textured rolling pins, one smooth rolling pin, four patterned clay mallets, four double-ended wooden modeling tools, a rolling wheel cutter and six sticks of modeling clay – international shipping from the US is available over the phone.

And you could also indulge the junior cookie maker with a set of 100 plastic cookie cutters which includes numbers, letters, geometric forms, animals, plants, vehicles, seasonal shapes and other miscellaneous goodness

But of course, there is always the el-cheapo version which we go for around here — buttons and matchsticks!

Blabla products make me happy. The colours, the characters, the sense of whimsy and the beautiful hand-knit quality have me entranced when I happen across these lovelies in a children’s boutique.

Florence Wetterwald is the French-born designer now living in America, and the products are knitted in natural fibres by Peruvian artisans. After much deliberation, I think my favourite is the big jungle mobile, but even after a quick browse through the collection you are sure to come across the perfect gift for a special kid, or simply loads of joyful inspiration for your day.
