I’ve long been a fan of soy milk — for me and the boys — so my natural curiosity for this bean led me to find out more about Babysoy. To my surprise, this wasn’t a brand of soy formula or baby milk, but a line of clothing made from the leftover pulp from tofu, … [Read more.]
Rather than try and stop my one year old from writing on the furniture, here’s a gorgeous yet functional piece of craftsmanship I’d be more than happy for him to attack with felt-tip pens.
The low Bookshelf Recto Verso (Ä990) from French design stable Nonjetable can also be used as a space divider and … [Read more.]
A very good friend of mine has just moved into a new house and is searching for inventive and humourous wall decals for her daughter’s playroom. So I couldn’t wait to send on the link to Parisian design duo Paristic, which was passed on to us here at Babyology by one of our readers (thank … [Read more.]
Ahh, they make baby bath time look so easy in the hospital when the midwife helps with your newborn’s first wash. And then you get home and have to recreate this wondrous moment in your own bathroom. I remember ending up totally soaked with a drenched, inquisitive toddler, a screaming baby and a desire to … [Read more.]
My dad says he wishes he could sing. Well, I wish I could sew. I’ve tried countless times, but it seems even the simplest of creations gets my stomach (and my thread) in a knot. Which is why I am indebted to those clever Etsy people — you get to buy gorgeous handmade goodies … [Read more.]
How ridiculously cool is this? Yes, it’s an original 1950s vintage Harry Bertoia Wire children’s chair, complete with original yellow pad, and is just one of the many amazing pieces in the vintage-modern kids’ chair collection from Three Potato Four.
Northern Virginia-based Stu Eli and Janet Morales started their online shop and blog because of … [Read more.]
The most played-with toys at our place are the ones that can be anything my childrens’ imagination want them to be, whether it’s a cubby house, a space rocket or a football goal. And if it can spin, rock or roll then that’s a bonus.
So I can’t wait to get my hands on this fab … [Read more.]
It’s only natural that to compensate for your living room being turned into a toy-filled play den (and any decent furniture you do have being covered with unidentified stains, boxes of wipes and the odd stuffed toy) that you satisfy your lust for beautifully-crafted furniture in other rooms. So how about starting with the nursery?
This … [Read more.]
Every morning from 5am onwards my one year old migrates from his cot to my bed. And while I try to hide under the duvet, he will climb over mummy to the bedside table and demand the digital clock to play with. I happily oblige (anything for a few more minutes shut-eye) as this is … [Read more.]
I’ve got a tattered old sideboard in the kitchen which I rescued from the side of the road. I keep meaning to revamp it so it resembles something vaguely mid-century modern, but can’t decide what colour to paint the sliding doors (well that’s my excuse for it sitting in the state it’s in). But after … [Read more.]
"When I was a young warthog!" has become a catchphrase in our house. This line from a song in The Lion King has to be sung as loudly and as stupidly as possible, and always gets a laugh. As a result, my children and I (and even my partner) have developed a fondness for this … [Read more.]
Okay, so a dining table with a built-in marble run could work one of two ways with a fussy toddler: either they’ll be so keen to be seated at this magical table they’ll eat anything, or – and I think this is the scenario to expect at my house – they’ll spend most of the … [Read more.]
