Live Large at Little Living: Up to 65% off Sale On Ollie & Max, Playsam, Greengate Linen, CreaLamp, Custard Pie, Zid Zid Kids + more

Posted: February 3rd, 2010

Today’s post written by Anna

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

I’m sure most of us have a ‘favourite things’ list. Here are just a few things that appear on mine: my husband (check) the sound of happy children (check) fresh flowers (check) a dress or two (check) a few special, and most importantly, gorgeous-looking treasures (check) white walls (check) clean floors (hmm, maybe tomorrow?!)

A fantastic spot for finding ‘favourite things’ is the simply stunning space called Little Living – www.littleliving.com.au. Within this luxurious space you’ll find a gorgeous array of only the finest designed children’s home wares, gifts and accessories. Lovingly selected from both European and Australian designers, and brought together and infused with very classy style of proprietor Paula Kos, you will be blown away by the beauty in store.

Finding their home in the stellar line-up at Little Living are pieces from Allerhand, Babymoov, Custard Pie, Danish by Design, ecokid, Ensparkle Ceramics, Firefly and Little Miss Firefly, Forwalls, Gense, Greengate, Hanke, House Doctor, Ida Pearle, International Arrivals, Jock & Tilly, Kideko, Little Lighthouse, Maileg, Marks, Mini Rhubarb, MOJO, Mudpuppy, Ollie & Max, Oscar Blue, Overbeck & Friends, Playsam, Scherning, Seedling, Tania McCartney, The Birthday Company and Zid Zid Kids.

To kick off what is sure to be a long relationship between you and Little Living, Paula is holding a fabulous sale with up to 65% off! This wondrous event lasts only while stocks last until 28 February 2010. There is soooo much to choose from and it really is all utterly and completely gorgeous – we are truly spoiled for choice here! I have selected just a few of my favourites to illustrate my point and showcase what’s on offer to eat, sleep, play and live with from Little Living.

EAT. There is a fantastic choice for kids dinnerware at Little Living.  The Mini Rhubarb range is just gorgeous and with our little girl now out-eating her older brothers, we spend a lot of time looking at her dinnerware! So if you’re embarking on solids or well into the food (+ mess) journey -  for all the time you end up spending looking at, using, picking up from the floor and then washing your child’s dinnerware – I say pick a design like the Sweetie dinnerset that you’ll love too!  If you love polkda dots,  Little Living also stocks the divine melamine polka range from the European designer brand, Greengate. Talk about eating in style!

SLEEP. Greengate also have a lovely range of quality bed linen and cushions for your little one. I adore the Mimi Linen Doona Cover which is currently reduced fro $129.00 to just $40.00! What a find!

PLAY. From German brand Allerhand come a gorgeous and unique sports bag designed to hold a soccer or netball, together with a drink bottle.  These are seriously cool and seriously clever – no more chasing off after run away balls in car parks! Allerhand also make a great range mini rucksack suitable for little ones to use as a backpack or your tween to use as a lunch bag.

LIVE. Another of my ‘favourite things’ is gifts – for there is so much joy to be found in giving :) Little Living is a superb spot to go gift hunting for you are sure to find so something unique and beautiful – you can even have gifts wrapped to perfection and delivered straight to the lucky recipient. There are gorgeous rabbits, mice and rattles from Denmark’s Maileg which make the perfect baby and toddler presents. I love the large rabbit with stripe dress and check out the Mouse House: what a delightfully quaint gift idea.  Plus if it’s an adult you’re shopping for, I rate highly the ‘My Quotable Kid’ journal as a gift idea for parents.  This is a book that will become a sentimental part of a family’s life – containing all the memorable sayings our kids come out with, and all the associated memories that come out as we relive them over time. Want to give the gift of choice? A Little Living Gift Voucher is just the thing.

New ‘Charlie and Lola’ & Super Hot Sale at Kinder Kaboodle: 15% off Store-Wide with Shop 4 Kids KSF Code

Posted: February 27th, 2009

Today’s post written by Angela

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

Kinder Kaboodle – www.kinderkaboodle.com.au – is certainly *the* place to visit for all your creche/pre-school/Kindy/Nan’s place needs, with a HUGE range of backpack, lunchboxes, drink bottles, hats, smocks, sun and rain gear, and other supplies, but did you also know that Bernice at Kinder K has you covered while you’re at home too?

There’s a lovely range of  games, activity sets, toys and accessories that will have you well sorted on stay-at-home, and stay-indoors, days.

Bernice has just received a new shipment of fab new Charlie and Lola merchandise that will have your kids calling “Mummm…pleeeeeeease can I have the Make and Play Jungle Playset??!” (or is that my voice? Moving right along….)

While branded merch is something which doesn’t usually get my pulse racing, I do really enjoy the Charlie and Lola. The books, and cleverly crafted DVDs both have artistic merit (Lauren Child is an accomplished artist and designer, inspired by children’s illustrator Quentin Blake, and here’s a piece of info to grow your Trivial Pursuit knowledge: she previously worked as an artist’s assistant to British creator Damien Hirst). Child’s stories are both joyfully happy and educational, and inspire infectious giggles, so fill your cart without the cringe factor!

Kinder K also now stocks a small range of themed nesting stacking boxes, including the Little Golden Books variety, which feature a selection of my fave LGB characters including The Poky Little Pupple and The Saggy Baggy Elephant, amongst others. These make a very cool decor piece before coming into their own as one of the most well-used toys you will ever own: my girls have used their boxes from 6 months old, and are STILL using them for various purposes.

For rainy days to come, check out the large range of cooking attire and accessories at Kinder Kaboodle. The Mini Rhurbab sets win the day for me.

As always, be sure to check out the Kinder Kaboodle Sale section for a nice selection of goodies going cheap.

Until midnight Tuesday 3 March, 2009, you can take 15% off store-wide (including sale items) by using the Shop4Kids discount code. Find the code in the latest Shop4Kids magazine, and also in the KidStyleFile Deals & Steals newsletter, out every Tuesday.

KidStyleFile Special Feature: Step Up To The Plate – Gorgeous Dinnerware For Kids

Posted: February 2nd, 2009

Today’s post written by Miki

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

Dinner time is a funny thing with very young children, isn’t it?  It can be an absolute delight with giggles and stories, gobbling down delicious food – or it can be one of those times where the food hits the wall and you want to tear your hair out.

I can’t guarantee that any of the fabulous plates, bowls and cutlery below will fix that problem, but surely anything that distracts the kids is a good thing!  And this crockery is all so gorgeous that it will make the most hastily thrown together meal look like it came from a Michelin-starred kitchen.

The first collection here is for babies and young toddlers, right from when they are starting solids to when they are learning to feed themselves with a spoon and fork.  Look for simple, eye-catching designs and nothing that’s too hard to clean!  Trust me, you’ll end up with mashed pumpkin everywhere…

These are some of my faves:

1. Babymoov HIPPO Childrens Cup, $23.95  $19.16; Babymoov HIPPO Childrens Bowl & Lid, $23.95  $19.16; Babymoov HIPPO Plate, Lid & Spoon, $28.00  $22.40; all at Metro Mum
2. Boon Catch Bowl, $14.95; Boon Benders Adaptable Utensils, $9.95; both at Bubba Funk
3. Airfork One, $15.95 from Baby’s Got Style
4. Annabel Karmel Large Bowl Set, $18.50 from Baby’s Got Style
5. Funny Duck Plate, $7.50; Funny Frog Plate, $7.50; both from Baby’s Got Style

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

Next we come to older toddlers and pre-schoolers, and even young school-aged kids, who are learning to use a knife and fork and enjoy eating ‘adult’ food.  Keep an eye out for tough, strong products, and if they look great then all the better!  Here are some of the best:

1. Boon Modware Toddler Utensils, $9.95; Boon Groovy Interlocking Plate & Bowl Set, $24.95; both from Bubba Funk
2. Dwink Box in Blue and Orange, $9.95  $8.95 each; from Ekidna Kids
3. Mother Hen Spotty Three Piece Meal Set, $16.95; from Chic Kids
4. Tommee Tippee Snack ‘n’ Straw Cup in Blue, Pink and Yellow, $13.95 each; from Baby’s Got Style

5. Mother Hen Rainbow Cutlery Set, $11.50; from Chic Kids
6. Assorted French Bull Plates & Cups, from $9.95 at The Hip Infant

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

Last of all I wanted to show you some gift sets.  I recommend always having a funky dinner set in the present drawer as they make great gifts!  Also consider giving one to your kid/s as a reward for special achievements – learning to use a knife and fork correctly, for example, or mastering dinner table manners (and if you achieve this one, tell me how!).  Each mealtime with the special new dinner set will be a reminder of the child’s achievement and will make them feel special all over again!

1. Go Home Food Face Meal Set, $19.95; and Go Home Food Face Meal Set – Fruits & Veges, $19.95; both from My Messy Room
2. Monsieur & Madame Zio Six Piece Melamine Dinner Sets
, $49.95 per set; from Urban Baby
3. Crocodile Creek Garden Meal Gift Set, and Crocodile Creek Dinosaur Meal Gift Set, both $39.95 from Chic Kids
4. Mini Rhubarb Sailor Sam Three Piece Dinner Set, $19.95; and Sailor Sam Cutlery, $12.95; and Mini Rhubarb Annie Apple Three Piece Dinner Set, $19.95 and Annie Apple Cutlery, $12.95; all from The Infant Boutique

I’d love to be able to show you aaaaalll my favourites but that could take several pages.  Here are a few more options for you that deserve a mention:

  • Shop Until currently have cat-themed meal set from French Bull on sale reduced from $39.95 to just $15.00. Bar-gain!!

  • Urban Baby for their amazing selection of cutlery – no, seriously! Check out their range!!
  • IKEA, who have the coolest and cheapest feeding accessories around (plus I can’t recommend their Antilop highchair highly enough!)

Please check individual sites for shipping details.  Also check the KidStyleFile ‘All Current Deals’ page to see if you qualify for any special discounts at the stores above.

One of my favourite-est things in the whole store – and it’s in the 20% off sale category, bonus! – is the Djeco My Garage, pictured below.  What a great toy for a little boy, or even for a little girl who has an interest in cars!  Djeco toys are always well made, so the garage will serve for years of fun entertainment.  The little cars to go with it are 20% off too, so snap up one of each design while you’re at it!

If you’re in the market for a nappy bag then have a good browse through the 20% off category too.  You’ll find Isoki, SkipHop and one particularly delectable offering from Ramalama (which is actually 30% off).

More Hot Xmas Picks at Kinder Kaboodle – 15% off Store-Wide with KSF My Child Magazine Code

Posted: December 13th, 2008

Today’s post written by Miki

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

Last week Angela visited Kinder Kaboodle – www.kinderkaboodle.com.au.  You can see her post here.

Now frankly, I don’t see why she should get all the fun – I love Kinder Kaboodle too!!

So today I’m getting all rebellious.  I don’t care that Angela brought you some gorgeous gift ideas from Kinder Kaboodle just last week; today I’m going to bring you some even better gift ideas from the gorgeous KK, and you, our wonderful KSF readers, can decide for yourselves who chose the better products. (Hint: it’ll be me ;) )

I do concede that Ange did well to point out the 15% discount store-wide - also good for sale items! – valid until December 31 2008 using the new My Child magazine discount code (found inside the front cover of the latest edition).

I will also admit that she got it right when pointing out Kinder Kaboodle’s FREE gift-wrapping. Take advantage of that when you order!

In fact, all of her product picks were fabulous; I love the Mini Rhubarb range too, and the Cocoon Couture Beanbags are a super deal with a number of designs marked down to only $129.95 $85.00.

Hmmm, well….I’m not to be outdone!!

For my first pick, check out the adorable new Taia Hair Clips.  These are the perfect accessories for style-conscious mini fashionistas and look equally pretty in long hair or short, straight or curly, wispy or thick.  There are some great little retro-inspired designs in here.

On the topic of hair accessories, I also love the LocoLili! Reversible Headbands.  Now Bernice has just received a brand new shipment of these so there’s a great range of styles to choose from, but they always sell like hotcakes so please make sure you don’t miss out on the styles you’re after.  Like the Taia Hair Clips they’re really affordable and make perfect stocking stuffers for special little girls.

Mamas & Papas soft toys are always a great choice (I love giving these as baby shower gifts), and they’re also perfect for baby’s first – or second or third! – Christmas.  How sweet is the Classic Rag Doll?  Don’t you just want to hug her?

Lastly, for bags and accessories there are two fabulous brands I have a very hard time choosing between.  They are, of course, Rush and Tiger Tribe.  Both do affordable, well-made products which are appropriately tough in order to survive all the abuse your little tornadoes will put them through.  Just as important, though, are their spectacular good looks!  Both Rush and Tiger Tribe specialise in bold, colourful designs which really stand out on the bag racks at kinder.

Well, what do you think? Who’s the winner, me or Ange? Maybe you’ll just have to pick a little Kinder Kaboodle from both of us….

Don’t forget that you can take 15% off these prices using the My Child discount code!

1. Rush ‘Dinosaur’ Large Canvas Tote, $44.95
2. Assorted Taia Hair Clips, from $8.95ea
3. Tiger Tribe Pencil Case ‘Ice Creams’, $14.95
4. Mamas & Papas Classic Rag Doll, $75.95

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

Want to have some fun today? Head on over to  Kinder Kaboodle - www.kinderkaboodle.com.au, and get the jump on getting your kids ready for school-daycare-Nanna’s-anywhere!! next year, with Bernice’s huuuuuuge range of bags, smocks, pencil cases, rainwear, sunwear, art and craft wear, and accessories.

I love the Rush Aliens range for boys featuring fresh colours against a black background, making it funky enough for any little budding alien-catcher. In fact the entire Rush range (both for boys and girls) is stunning and really well priced!  There’s an enormous selection to choose from; go wild!

Melbourne brand Mini Rhubarb has the sweetest range for girls with their Bonnie Bird collection.  Little girls love to collect matching items, so make her day by getting a few pieces from the range.  I’d suggest the backpack and/or library bag, the pencil case and the art smock, and then add in a few little accessories like hair clips to make up her best gift of the year.

I have the KK Magnetic Jungle Theatre Set popped away for my girls for Christmas, and I’m tempted by the sweet 70s style Giddy Giddy fabric pouches for them as well.

And if you’re in the market for a stunning and eternally popular Cocoon Couture Beanbag or three, you’ll be delighted to know that Bernice has six designs which have had the prices slashed from $129.95 to just $85.00!!  That’s more than 30% off!!

If you want a 15% discount store-wide – including sale items!! – until December 31 2008, grab a copy of My Child magazine, and look inside the font cover for the magic code.
