Not-So Wordless Wednesday: Around the World

Sue (the Chief Executive Mom here at Raspberry Kids) spends hours travelling around the worldwide web in search of products for our store as well as inspirational or beautiful images, content and items to share with our community.  On one of her recent trips, she stumbled across this amazing Hungarian blog, Otthonkommando, and there are so many amazing things that we cannot wait to share with you.

We take pride in searching and finding the best of the best from talents the world over and we certainly hope you enjoy this week’s Not So Wordless Wednesday installment.

We are going gaga (not Lady Gaga, that is a whole other blog post) over the use of maps in all of these pictures. What better way to feed your little ones’ curiosity while keeping their room colourful and bright?

Imagine letting your little one put stickers everywhere that they have been or want to go. Is it possible to have more fun with wallpaper?  We don’t think so.

Happy Travels!

Not-So Wordless Wednesday: Use What You Have and Have Double the Fun

Continuing with our theme of reducing, reusing, recycling and having fun from last week, we found this lovely idea (via Apartment Therapy). A great way to keep your little one active and having fun indoors on these chillier and darker days (but they are indeed getting brighter) using just what you have in your recycling box.

Well we know what we are going to be doing this weekend (little and big kids alike).  Happy hump day!

Flash Friday: Coco & Tini


2011 was an amazing year overall but was especially exciting because it was the year that we added our Lotions and Potions category to Raspberry Kids.

Sunscreen, shampoo, conditioner, bubble bath, bug repellent and so much more. Raspberry Kids became the go-to for all of your natural lotion and potion needs. One of the lines we carry has a special place in our (very large) heart in particular and that is Coco & Tini.

Local love is what we like to call it. Yes, we are very proud to say that Coco & Tini is based out of Vancouver, just like us here at Raspberry Kids (not that we don’t love our international suppliers as well!).

Not only is Coco & Tini local but they also create Paraben-free, 100% natural products that smell GREAT!

 

This week, because yes – it’s Friday (Flash Friday that is), we are giving away a Coco & Tini travel pack. This includes 2oz. of each the shampoo, conditioner, body wash and bubble bath (retailing at $23.99!!) and it could be yours! Free!

Also, stay tuned for more Coco & Tini features coming to the blog soon!

And a BIG congrats to Kristina S. who won last weeks giveaway!

Not-So Wordless Wednesday: Reduce-Reuse-Recyle -

 

 

 


Happy Wednesday! This week for our  NSWW we are highlighting an awesome line of  stickers that we found on, one of our all time favorites, LMNOP blog.  Another interesting tidbit is that the designer of this brand is also the designer for Hopscotch Kids, the awesome eco-friendly salon quality nail polish for kids that we carry!

You know the time that you got your little one the PERFECT gift that you thought they would love? But then after opening it you find that they are far more interested in playing with the box that the gift came in? Well, Box Play worked with that and took it one step further. They created stickers for every day objects such as milk jugs, egg cartons etc., to turn them into something else.

Take your old egg carton, add piano egg carton sticker and a dash of imagination, and voila! Your little one has a his very own keyboard. A record player sticker on a cereal box and now your little one can play DJ. Turn a milk carton into a fire truck, or a shoe box into a turtle, Box Play has thought of everying.

And of course, one of the coolest things about this line is that it really teaches your little ones reducing, recycling and reusing. Two big Raspberry thumbs up.

 

Which is your favorite?
