 With summer (hopefully!) just around the corner these "Baby Banz" sunglasses (for ages 0-2yrs) and "Kids Banz" (for ages 2-5yrs) are ideal for protecting your baby and child's eyes from strong sunlight. |
 This baby activity toy comes highly recommended. Your baby can have lots of fun jumping about in this Fisher Price Rainforest Jumperoo. We imagine it would be a great pre-lunch or pre-bath activity, with the aim of a very restful sleep afterwards! |
 This lovely solid picnic table with sandpit/water tray comes from GLTC. A great playtime investment, especially in gardens where space is an issue.

 Every house should have lego. The chunky Duplo version is perfect for little hands and will guarantee hours of creative fun for you and your toddler! |

 If the noise from the Baby Band is still not enough for you, how about this gorgeous wooden drum from John Lewis. This will certainly liven things up for you! |
 We love this lovely pull-along Ninky Nonk Train. Imagine the fun when Daddy continuously trips over it! Your toddler will be delighted to see it happen, not to mention the fun he will have playing with it! |

 A lovely summery mealtime set (for picnics too!) for childen. As it is completely devoid of TV characters, your eyes will be given a nice rest too! |
 Does your daughter run away every time you wave a hairbrush anywhere near her? Those days are now over. Brush your child's hair with no more tears thanks to this Tangle Teezer Hair Detangling Brush (as seen on Dragon's Den!) |
 We just love this gorgeous pencil rug. It is bound to brighten up many a bedroom floor! |
 Your children will love to help you in the garden with their very own child-sized wheelbarrow. Watch out for the worms! |
 Forget about the Nintendo Wii and switch the telly off. Your child will forget these things even exist when he lays eyes on this beautiful wooden farm with animals! |
 Press a button and Danny and his friend dive off their boat. Hilarious bathtime fun! |
 Now that the flowers are beginning to bloom again, your child can make some wonderful home-made cards with this lovely old-fashioned flower press. How lovely to see that our own old favourites still exist! |

 Do you have a budding photographer in your family? This VTech Kidizoom Multimedia Digital Camera might fit the bill!

It has lots of special features and a few simple games to play on it as well. Available in pink, blue or green. |
 Once your little one is up and about this Baby Walker and Blocks is brilliant for encouraging first steps. The blocks are great for tower building (and demolition!) too. |
