The Village Toy Store: Jan 17th

We found the most amazing toystore in Mendocino. I would honestly rate it as one of the best and most beautiful toy stores I've ever had the pleasure of walking into. The owner Wanda has an incredible talent for finding the most wonderful array and choice of all different types of toys. I think we spent a good 30 mins chatting to the lovely Marsha who was working there while Sofia happily played with the toys. I was so incredibly inspired. For all those parents, grandparents etc out there, here are a couple of brand names (that I'd never heard of) to watch out for:

Melissa & Doug - amazing wooden castles
Folkmanis puppets - imagine an amazing peacock hand puppet
Great Pretenders and Little Adventurers - fabulous costumes
Natalie L'ete - just beautiful pieces
Enchantmints - gorgeous music boxes

I'm still smiling just thinking about this shop.

A lovely quote to leave you with...

'Because children thrive when they are surrounded by Beauty, Truth & Goodness'.
