#444 co.zen

 

oh how like this wooden cutlery set from co.zen ... that i found via spoon and tamago... when trying to order two sets for my sons online I bumped into this completely Japanese website that didn't even allow me to translate it via google, but I'm not that easily stopped ... so i have sent the shop a message and hopefully they will respond ...

#443 wee see

Not often do I show images of our home, because I'm a terrible photographer and my images don't bring much good to B:Kids unless it really makes a difference in convincing you of something good ...like today when I share with you my feelings about the dvd's from Wee See...

Yes these two dvd's don't bring you a story, nor is there any color but it DOES attracts my 4 year's old attention and makes him curious what happens next... normally he prefers Peter Pan, Robin Hood and Tarzan but somehow Wee See inspires him and more important it calms him down. I expected the dvd to be for my 1 year old son (and yes he likes it too) but it happens to be a lot of fun for Lode ... Wee See is a collection of black-and-white animations built from basic shapes, you can read all about the genius creators right here and you can order here...
