Back to the basics!

Here is a sneak preview of some great new toys

arriving soon at Kids Club!

Mama K's Play Clay is not your average dough! Molding dough is great for kids because it encourages imagination, boosts motor skills, and improves dexterity. We love Mama K's dough because in addition to great play it's 100% natural, gluten free, naturally tinted, scented with essential oils, and it's made locally! You can't get much better than that! Using essential oils like lavender, chamomile, and bergamot give this play clay soothing and tension-easing powers. Use this to your advantage the next time your little one is feeling a little crabby, give them a lump of clay and let them pound it out.


Playing dress-up is a time honored childhood tradition. My nephew can completely loose himself in self-created character. He enjoys acting out everything from a superhero, to a dinosaur with really sharp spikes on his head (his words), to a pirate on a ship. What makes a great dress up chest? Variety and Durability! 2 Big Kids has got you covered on both! We will soon have in the 2 piece pirate set, which includes a hat andeye patch, magic wands fit for any princess or fairy, 2 piece gnome set, with head garland and a mushroom pouch, my personal favorite 3 piece crown and cuffs set for a most adorable little queen, and for your little letter carrier, a mail box full of mail. All of the costume items are made from durable wool felt, handmade in Nepal, and fairly traded. The mail box is hand crafted in the same great wool felt in the USA.


There are millions of fantastic new children's books on the market, but we can't forget the good old classics! Laughing Elephant is reproducing childhood favorites in their original vintage charm. They thoughtfully select the best versions of classic children's story books. The Mother Goose book of rhymes is a facsimile of a 1917 edition with beautiful illustrations to accompany all of the original rhymes. Stock your book shelves with some or all of these great books!
