Four Good Things
Maileg's dotted trolley, Big Fat Bambini's daily planner, and more
No theme this week, just four things worth passing along.
Maileg's Multi Dots Trolley is a small metal cart kids load up and push around. We saw a toddler wheeling one through the farmer's market with real produce in it this weekend, like a little adult. Big Fat Bambini's Daily Planner gives kids a page a day to write down a few to-dos and cross them off, a good way to build organization and accountability. cuddle+kind's Baby Sea Turtle is hand-knit, palm-sized, and a precious addition to the nursery. Wooden Story's Montessori Sand Tray has kids trace letters, numbers and shapes with a finger or the wooden pencil, with a flashcard propped up to copy from.
