I am super excited to welcome a new Magic Sponsor :: The Waldorf Exchange. The Waldorf Exchange is a marketplace for new and previously owned Waldorf items such as wooden toys, musical instruments, craft supplies, educational materials and Waldorf dols. What a super concept this is... if you are looking for Waldorf goodies and buy into the idea that it's a gift to own gently pre-used treasures, please pop straight over to this wonderful place. And, if you've been wondering what to do with your own gently used Waldorf toys, consider becoming a seller on The Waldorf Exchange too.
Please also welcome NEST as a Featured Magic Sponsor!
This is a truly beautiful toy shop! You must have a browse through their stunning natural and Waldorf inspired toys. They have such a wonderful selection for boys and girls, young and old... so many gorgeous wooden, woolen, silken and crafting playthings to enchant any child for hours! And I particularly love keeping an eye on the regular new additions to their catalogue.
And, welcome to another Featured Sponsor, Sparkle Stories!
For those of you who haven't signed up for their delightful audio stories yet... you are missing OUT! Kitty waits in happy anticipation for her new story to arrive in our inbox each Friday morning. There are 6 story series to choose from, each one more delightful than the last. Each of the Sparkle Story Series has exactly a year’s worth of stories that follow the seasons and the months of the year. You don’t need to hear the previous ones to enjoy the current story. Jump in any time!
A BIG welcome to a new Magic Sponsor :
Super Skivvies ::
Super Skivvies cloth training pants are convertible training underwear that aid in potty training and bed wetting. Super Skivvies cloth training pants feature one layer of soft 100% cotton interlock in the body, a rayon (from bamboo)/organic cotton velour liner in the crotch area, 100% cotton interlock waist and thigh bands, and no-roll elastic encased in the waist. The waist band is extra wide so that little fingers can get a good grip helping to pull them up and down on their own. Included is a removable insert consisting of three layers rayon (from bamboo)/organic cotton fleece. Just tuck the insert into the crotch lining, and your undies are trainers!
A hearty welcome back to my other wonderful Magic Sponsors:
The Natural Kids Store ::
Waldorf Essentials ::
Waldorf inspired mentoring and homeschooling essentials. Here is their mission statement, "Our mission is simple: to provide the best products and service to our customers at the lowest prices possible. We take great pride in our company, our commitment to customer service and in the products we sell. Our online store is designed to provide you with a safe and secure environment to browse our product catalog."
Melisa recently shared her life and work in such an interesting interview here on The Magic Onions... here's a link to the article.
A Child's Dream Come True ::
Debbie offers natural crafts, toys and more to nurture the child's sense of life and imagination. In fact, the nurturing of imagination doesn't stop with children... it was a result of the BEAUTIFUL wool and fiber I found at A Child's Dream Come True that I first fell in love with needle felting. Looking through their gorgeously colored wool, I'm like a kid in a candy shop!
Sarah's Silks ::
Sarah's Silks believe in the magic of creative play! Their playsilks, dress-ups, canopies, and playthings are natural fiber toys that stimulate a child’s imagination, and capture the magical soul that lives in young children. Children love to dress up with these beautifully dyed cloths! With an inspiring palette of playsilks, children will spend many hours exploring their limitless imaginations.
And unique gifts for children,
non-toxic toys, classic games, educational books, children’s craft kits,
and reusable bags. Planning a party? Stubby Pencil Studio also offers
party favors and décor, and many other creative products that kids will
love.
Thank you to all my wonderful sponsors. I know I am not alone in being dedicated to finding the local alternatives to shopping at big department stores. We, as consumers, have more power and control than we think!
Blessings and magic,
Donni
