Organic Autumnal warmth by Welsh brand Pili Pala

In CategoryEthical Brands, Organic & Fairtrade Clothing
ByJo

It’s a glorious day here in Wales with the sun shining – a real autumnal treat!

Without wanting to sound too much like a misery-guts, I’m afraid that all good things have to come to an end and I’m sure that this fine weather won’t last for long. 

If your tiny tots could do with something to keep them warm and snug in the autumn chill, we highly recommend Pili Pala Childrenswear’s range.  Made from organic cotton or a mix of organic cotton and recycled fabric, your children will be snug as a bug in a rug whilst looking über trendy with the Scandinavian inspired range, which is made here in Wales.  Their funky clothes can be mixed and matched and being largely unisex, passed from one sibling to another – talk about being green!

One of the best items is their brown and green jumpsuit which is a fantastic cover-all.  It’s great for those times when your kids have managed to cover themselves from head to toe in paint, chocolate or anything else that comes to hand and you have to strip them down to their nappy or vest.  Throwing on one of the Pili Pala jumpsuits is a great solution.  They’re also handy for putting over clothes when it’s just a bit nippy or even after swimming when your skin goes a bit sticky and you’d rather be in something loose and comfy.  Go on, give it a go, we guarantee you won’t be disappointed!

BumGenius v 4.0 Prints – Artist Series by Chelsea Perry

In CategoryCloth Nappy News & Offers
ByJo

Tiny socialite Collection by Chelsea Perry is the first set of prints from the new bumGenius Artist series

This collection of 5 prints are available in the bumGenius 4.0 prints & the bumGenius Organic prints.  You can pre-order them now from Babi Pur and they will be delivered to you mid November.  The bumGenius 4.0 prints will be available in both snaps/poppers or aplix (like velcro)

So what do you think of these new prints..?  We really like them.  I must admit I wasn't sure what to expect and at it took me a while to take in what I was seeing.  These really are very unusual - which is great in my opinion as I love having things which are different and unique.

Gwerin y Coed, the Woodcraft Folk in Wales

In CategoryFeatured Articles & News
ByGwenlli

Having worked for a year and a half for Gwerin y Coed, the Woodcraft Folk in Wales, I've finaly realised my dream of getting a group together in Penrhyndeudraeth, with the help of other parents and individuals who love to see their kids have fun!

Gwerin y Coed is all about letting children express themselves, learn skills for co-operation instead of competition, respecting our environment and get a feeling of being part of the bigger picture. We explore big ideas through play and fun. Groups can be held for children from 0-20 years old, we're currently running one for 0-6s and one for 7-12s.

Anyone is welcome to come along and join us. We currently have enough volunteer leaders to run sessions smoothly, so you won't get dragged into helping - but the more the merrier! ask for a membership form and free CRB check if you'd like to join in with activities.

So far, we've had three weeks of varied activities - the little ones making and moulding salt-dough, a trip to an orchard to pick and juice apples for drinking (yummy!) and a trip to llyn Mair where we collected lots of leaves, bark and bits. We'll be making collages with them this week. Still to come before half term holidays: Bread-making on the 15th and Pumpkin Carving on the 20th.

The older group have been out on expeditions around Penrhyn's woodlands.

We meet in Penrhyndeudraeth 5.00-6.30 every Wednesday during school term.

call me or email to find out more gwenlli@gwerin.org 07774011403 www.gwerin.org

Win a Close Parent “Dream-dri V3″ Pop in nappy test kit!

In CategoryCOMPETITIONS!
ByJo

We're really impressed with this new version of the already popular Dream-dri nappy.  This new nappy may look similar to the V2... but look more closely and you will see that it has undergone some fantastic improvements.  The dream-dri has moved with the times... it has a lovely soft 'minky' inner, it's slimmer yet more absorbent and the outer is more robust and leak proof.  This test kit contains 2 x complete nappies, a twin pack of biodegradable liners, 1 small tote bag and 1 x dri-nite bamboo booster.

For your chance to win this fabulous test kit, all you need to do is answer the following question by commenting below -

"Is there anything you would like us to stock here at Babi Pur which we don't already sell?"
