wipe clean...if you're a parent this is a welcome phrase (*sigh* gone are the days of dry clean only) but despair not my friends for this natty oilcloth may be practical but it looks lovely too...let the messy play commence!

no longer in need of a high chair but not quite tall enough to sit at the table without a bit of a boost...well then check out these super junior chairs... (and if you're the type who likes to socialise they stack too!)

forget 'here comes the big aeroplane', breakfast (lunch or dinner) is all about the choo choos...and boy-oh-boy is this egg cup, toast holder and salt and pepper cellar good. beautifully hand crafted out of fine bone china, with wooden wheels and hidden magnets to link the carriages together. used separately or together they will bring more than a bit of fun to the table.

chickens, a pig and a cow grace this tableware set courtesy of of the great graphic wizard that is dick bruna (him of miffy fame). it's sort of branded in a non-branded way...and none of that cutesy stuff neither! lovely.

this chair is perfect for that magical wobbly age when a baby can't quite sit up on their own - great for weaning or just keeping them safely wedged in place....but remove the coloured insert and it'll provide a comfy seat well into the toddler years too. marvelous.

it's quite infuriating when you cook a meal for your little one and they toss the whole thing on the floor...it's even worse if it's served on a nice bit of ceramic that smashes on impact. plastic tableware may be the practical answer but it's not always the prettiest, so picture my happy face when I stumbled upon this....it's recycled, free from all those nasties that you'd rather your little one refrained from licking (bpa, phthalates and pvc to be more precise) a little bit graphic and a lot super cool
