Kokokaka - slightly weird, very wonderful E-mail

I had a great time reading the translated text from the purely German site Kokokaka. I got Babelfish - my trusty online translator - to do all the hard work for me. The products aren't exactly self-explanatory, so some further investigation was most definitely required.

As a great alternative to those bear skin rugs we all have in front our hearths (wink wink), the play rugs 'invite large and small discoverers' to remove and reposition the white rings, eyes and stripes. I just love the "Krake" design even though it's not anatomically correct! They're 100% soft cotton, so are machine washable and just perfect for nappy-free tummy time.

My 8 month old would adore the "Oktopus" bib - he shoves everything into his mouth, especially the tags sewn into bibs and toys - how lovely to have a favourite feature already built in! There's also the hare and penguin designs to choose from.

Next up is the range of very strange "Schnullergewichten" (dummy holders), which seem to loop around pram or car seat harnesses to keep the dummy accessible to baby, as well as providing a soft play thing on the other end.

Perhaps the most puzzling of all the product range is the "Erdmännchen" (Earth Man) baby burp cloth. Not quite sure about that one, but the "Fuchs" (fox) design is most definitely chic. Both are available in black or red, which along with white, are the signature colours of Kokokaka and most appealing to the eyes of young babies.

Contact Kokokaka about stockists and shipping options. Use an online translator if you're sheepish about emailing them in English.
