Educational Toys


 
These painted toys are part of my Educational Toys. These are great for learning pattern making, sorting, counting, and adding to other elements for preschool learning.
 
 Education needs to be hands on for all ages but mostly for under 5 years old when the road map of the brain is being laid out. Early education in a book and on the computer is good but hands on learning makes a connection to what they are learning.

Sneak Peek, What's New this Week

Fairy Charm School
 That year we meet Miss Marigold as she move to The Fairy Ring and opened the Charm School.



 The fairy children enjoyed their days filled with learning and play.


 Today they will share show and Tell. Pansy brings her pet Ladybug and Sweetpea bring her favorite leaf from her collection. Miss Marigold brings special cookies from Pytunia's Stand.


  And on a very rare New Year's Blue Moon there was magic all around as new thing sprouted up in The Fairy Ring.


 A playground for the little one. 

What comes next? You will have to wait and see, but here is a hint.... it happens only on a Blue Moon!
You can shop for my The Fairy Ring toys on Etsy and find other magical toys.

Easter/Spring NaturalKids Team Blog-A-Thon


The NaturalKids Team was started by woodmouse in 2007. Early members included faerierebecca, fairiesnest, cozycottage. It was a small group, with a small presence on etsy. Since that time members have come and gone but our mission has stayed the same. To be a group of sellers dedicated to creating natural products for children. We are a diverse group of artisans who make natural toys, utensils, clothing and accessories for kids. Our sellers work with materials from the Earth, such as wool, cotton, silk and wood. Our goal is to support, promote and have fun together while building our businesses. 
 
One of our 1st Team Blog Post read as below and it is still true today....
We are a diverse bunch from all over the globe who have at least one thing in common:  we all work with natural materials in our products for children.  Oh yeah, and we're all pretty darn crafty & talented too!  Wool, wood, cotton...just simple materials direct from the Earth.


 

So who are we?  
Some of us are mothers of small children.
Some of us are mothers of grown children.
Some of us make dolls, some of us make hats, some of us make toys.
Some of us have been selling our wares for many years.
Some of us are just starting to discover our talents and start selling.
Some of us work with natural materials for environmental reasons.
Some of us work with natural materials as part of the Waldorf educational philosophy.
Some of us work with natural materials because we believe they are healthier and safer.
Some of us just like working with natural materials.
Some of us sell our wares for a living.
Some of us sell our wares as a hobby.

Since that time, some of us are fathers.
