We are excited to tell you about the new brand we’ve added. Estia is a German toy company that offers exquisitely carved wooden toys.

Check out the recently added selection of toys from Estia

Our favorites: the adorable Threading Animal Squirrel, and the Waddling Dachshund pull toy.

We especially love the Threading animal because the cord is attached to the squirrel so you will never have to worry about fishing it out from under the couch.

Threading animals also comes in the form of Rabbit, Butterfly, Penguin, and Horse.

We are really big fans of Flensted Mobiles. We have a couple of their mobiles hanging in our house. We’ve added 15 new mobiles from Flensted. Here are 3 of our favorites:

Hedgehog Family	Post Card Mobile	Seahorse Blue

Here’s a little lesser known fact about Flensted Mobiles:

“Flensted Mobiles are produced in a very low carbon manner: Let me explain, instead of 75 workers every day drive into the factory and assemble mobiles, they work from their homes. Every 14 day we drive on 1 trip visiting all workers exchange unassembled parts for mobiles packaged and ready to ship. We save 75 x 10 days of driving every 2 weeks or approximately 200 days a year for each employee. Let’s say each live 5 miles from work they get 20 miles to the gallon it will then come out to saving 7500 gallons of gas a year. We have been doing this for over 30 years.”
