Who would love this: Any kids with big imaginations + enjoy small-world creations

I love listening to my kids sharing about their imaginative world, from cookie-eating snowman, sky-diving piglet, to marshmallow rainbow 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣. We received this whimsical “Fairies & Gnomes Finger Puppet Set” from Tara Treasures recently; our creative story-telling sessions have never been that exciting since the day these 7 miniature beings arrived! 

Why I love ❤️ this toy: 

(1) 7 Unique Characters - The details of these 7 colourful characters are simply too charming! We gave each of these enchanting figures a names and built-up a series of “fun-facts” about them. First, we have “Goldy” that resides in the heart of purple orchid - she’s a great seamstress that can magically turn red floral petals into dresses that match perfectly with her French braided hair. “Moody” is that eccentric and grumpy old gnome with wise long beard who spends all day growing potatoes; his faithful and jovial assistant “Greeney” wears a scarf and Phrygian gnome cap made of green olive potion. “Mushroomy” has bright red “super mushroom” hat and enjoys nothing more than gathering toadstools. We also have “Witchy” the cunning fairy with wild hair, “Rapunzy” the pink princess with magical hair that cures all miseries, and “Tiny” the orange fairy that can sing like a nightingale. Each of them have their personalities, uniqueness, and temperaments. You just have to gaze hard enough to “feel” them. Try it! 

(2) Versatile - These are finger puppets that are fun to play with; they are also characters in our various settings, storylines and small world creations. We love posing them on wooden blocks, moving them around with icy pole sticks, and including them in our enchanted world with magical powers and villains. I love how colourful and versatile they are! 

(3) Ethically Handmade- Handmade felt-toys are full of distinctive characters, biodegradable, sustainable, and toxic-free. Designed in Melbourne and ethically hand-felted in Nepal, Tara Treasures supports fair wages for the artisans who work hard behind the scene. I love that the products are made of 100% New Zealand wool and coloured with azo-free dye; always playful and full of possibilities!

Who would love this: Food and pretend toys lovers! 

We are BIG toy lovers and MASSIVE fans of delicious treats. When you combine the two BEST things into one, you get a family of EXCITED people! Tara Treasures is a brand that I have been observing closely for a long time. They have a range of beautiful and original creations that sets themselves apart from other competitors. Today, I’m going to share about this latest favourite: The Pancake Stack Set! 

Why I love ❤️ this toy: 

(1) Realistic - My first impression when I cast my eyes at the three American-styled thick pancakes of three - “Woah, they are SO REAL!” 😱 I am super impressed with the details and realistic touches - the brownish circular marks on both sides, like some real pancakes perfectly “cooked” and “flipped” at the right timing and impeccable temperature of heat. The soft texture gives a terrific light, fluffy feel. These are some mouth-watering stackable hot-cakes that are too enticing to say no to! 

(2) Toppings for Varieties- Of course, like any traditional classic pancakes, the toppings play an important part for their ultimate score! Tara Treasure set comes with a chunk of bright yellow butter, 2 stunningly good-looking strawberries, 2 banana slices, and 3 blueberries for some freshness of flavours. Once again, Tara Treasures dedicated careful thoughts when designing these little “additions” - the banana slices have a little caramelised touch and stitches that give the inner seeds appearance; blueberries have lighter shade of “calyx” at the top, and the strawberries are round and juicy with yellow achenes! The kids love creating their cafe menu and give their pancake varieties funny names. They also love challenging themselves by stacking and decorating the pancakes high and pretty. These are some awesome pretend toys! 

(3) Awesome and Safe Materials- Felt toys are biodegradable, sustainable, toxic-free and eco-friendly. What I love BEST about Tara Treasure is that all its products are designed in Melbourne and ethically hand-felted in Nepal. I love that it supports fair wages for the artisans who work hard behind the scene to produce these amazing products! The toys are made from 100% New Zealand sheep wool and coloured with azo-free dye.
