Mini Media at Play

I know of some boys that would just get a big kick (or maybe a lego-sized kick) out of these Boom Block speakers from Land of Nod! Just plug the ipod into the block speaker and the whole Lego town can listen to melodious tunes. They would probably try to incorporate them into their architectural designs ~ setting up a big screen tv for the Lego home or maybe a drive-in theater for Legoians' entertainment. This might be on the Christmas list.

Earthday IV

Yesterday was Sunday, so lets make today Earthday!

Consider buying from vendors who support fair trade.

Fair Trade means an equitable and fair partnership between marketers in North America and producers in Asia, Africa, Latin America, and other parts of the world. A fair trade partnership works to provide low-income artisans and farmers with a living wage for their work.

These are some of the things that caught my eye at the Global Exchange Fair Trade Store.

Giving a Nod

Just received my Land of Nod catalog.

I love the strappy storage, which is handwoven, comes in fresh colors, and priced just right. Think outside the children's rooms, too.

Then this is the best, the three sizes fit all activity table that can actually grow with your child from toddler to adulthood. You have the option of selecting 15", 23", or 30" legs. It has a paper roller for lots of splendid creations and rolling storage bins for keeping all the must haves. This table facilitates creativity and learning for many sweet years to come!
