Okay, I admit it, I want this for myself.



Looking at an email from the fabulous kids product blog LMNOP this morning, this gorgeous MoMA Modern Play House jumped out at me. It comes from the Museum of Modern Art Store in New York, and includes 6 nesting boxes, 8 mix and match furniture pieces, 12 removable vinyl clings and as it says on their site "endless possibilities". There is a play family available too. Yes- just think of the fun I could have! The problem would be keeping my daughter away from it. I am a very selfish mother...

And yes, they ship internationally. Oh dear.

Oodles of great art at Nootles




Sheridan from Nootles (so called because her son can't pronounce "Noodles") contacted me this morning to tell me all about her company. I visited her website and loved what I saw. What fresh, vibrant children's wall art! The thing I like most about it is that a lot of these pieces will be great as the kids grow up- or in a teenagers room now. They have a real "pop-art" feel about them- a bit Andy Warhol-esque but in a child friendly way. They would also look fab in a playroom, or even in grown up living spaces. They are printed on high quality canvas and have a fast turnaround, so you won't be waiting forever for your masterpiece. Check them out and start your gallery now!
