Color Me Tables
The furniture kids get to draw on
Beyond a reclining chair, interactive furniture sounds like an oxymoron. That's why we were so surprised to find ColorMe Tables, a truly interactive furniture set for kids. Geared for kids ages 3-11, this sturdy table set made from corrugated paper has a white background with black outlines of different objects to color--just like a coloring book. It is a perfectly creative way to pass the time on rainy days, play dates, perfect for birthday parties and gifting too. The set is easy to set up and is eco-friendly---that's right, this table and chairs is certified GREEN! Various designs available. www.colormetables.com

This is Me
A kid's first keepsake journal
We all know the value of recording our children's precious moments in scrapbooks and photo albums, but what about memories from their point of view? This is Me does just that; this sturdy journal (archival quality paper) includes 96 pages of wire bound journal prompts encouraging children ages 3-8 to draw and write their life the way they see it. Pages built around holidays, celebrations, everyday happenings, quotes (your child's words), and journal prompts like “I Feel Proud” and “My Family” encourage self-expression from a variety of occasions. The most recent edition has sold out, but don't fret, email carrie@thisismejournal to be notified when the next, all-improved edition will be out (we were told in the next couple of months). www.thisismejournal.com
