XMAS GIFTS - FAIRY FUN TOYS - ECO-FRIENDLY TOYS SUPPORTING SMALL AUSTRALIAN BUSINESSES

The other day I talked about some great gift ideas for the kids, and today I’m continuing with some ideas for the kids, but with eco-friendly and educational toys, from small Australian businesses! All available from Fairy Fun Toys. 

I remember growing uo in Denmark and playing Mikado - or Pickup Sticks. - it was such a fun game. So I love watching my boys play this classic,game. You simply need to pick up the wooden sticks, one at a time, without disturbing any of the other sticks. It is a simple game, but great nonetheless, and it great for the kids to play on their own too. Perfect for concentration and motor skills too!
Pickup Sticks - RRP: $7.99 

Our little boy spent almost 5 months in hospital from he was just 6 weeks old - and to this day has regular checkups. We have never encouraged ‘doctor’ play - it is something he has done by himself - no doubt playing out some of all his experiences at the hospital, but using his teddies, or his big brother, at home, having so much fun. And this stethoscope is the perfect addiction. He has loves listening to overtones heart beat - and I think, thanks to this has an even better understanding of what is happening at some of his hospital visits.
Stethoscope - RRP: $19.95 

These Rainbow Water Beads are great sensory play. The tiny non-toxic water beads need to be soaked in water, and they’ll then grow approximately 150 times their original size. The slippery little beads are super fun and kind of addictive to play with, no wonder kids love them!
Rainbow Water Beads - RRP: $7.95 / 10g 

I think all small kids love play dough - my two boys sure does - and these cool Dinosaur Fossil Stamps are so cool for letting them be even more creative with engraved dinosaur impressions. My boys are huge dinosaur fans (aren’t all boys!!), so needless to say these are a huge hit!!
Dinosaur Fossil Stamps - RRP: $5.85 / 5 Stamps

My boys are increasingly interested in the world around them, and particularly interested in other planets - and I love teaching them a little more about astronomy with these cool plywood Outer Space cards. Each card features stunning coloured images of the Sun, our Moon, and all the planets in our solar system, including Pluto, Venus, Saturn, and of course covers Earth too!! Outdoor Space Cards - RRP: $52.90 / 11 Cards
