toys forever...


I am all for Toys that children can love for their entire childhood and still appreciate the great design and worth when they have children of their own.


Here are a few picks that fit into that category that I have or are on my wish list....





Gorgeous homes featuring all the mod cons ( working lights and lamps), if you can't afford the main Stockholm, then maybe you could purchase the smaller more modest Gotland weekender. You will need your first home buyers grant to help furnish them.








We love our Sophie le Girraffe. She was there for the teething, she is great company and every once in a while she lets out a squeak and it reminds us how cute she is.


Mostly now she just sits on the shelf looking adorable. We recently watched 3 Men and a Baby... and we were so glad to see that she played such a wonderful supporting role. (Tom selleck's Character Bought Baby Mary a Sophie)


French company Vulli made sophie a long time ago, and she truly is a timeless treasure. Squeak!

Boy or girl should have one of those good ol' fashioned Garages. Can't find a good pic, but you know the ones...little plywood shell servo - bery basic. Ours was only $10.00 from the local Toy Kingdom... if you don't have a handy Grandpa to whip you one up... you may be lucky enough to find one at the opshop or garage sale.


and...

Farm animals and dinosaurs. Very kind on the purse, and always fun.
