- Our friends at IGNITED PLAY here in Squamish have done the heavy lifting for Halloween at-home imaginative play. We feel so lucky to have snagged a couple of these Activity Kits which engage kids around one of the most coveted titles of 2021 - THERE'S A GHOST IN THIS HOUSE, by Oliver Jeffers:
- ILLUSTORIA is the only magazine we stock (and for good reason). It is stunningly beautiful, engaging and informative. Just like us - ha. But really, this issue is PERFECT for this season - and offers tons of info and activities to keep hands and minds busy!
- Dressing up is a year-round affair here in our home, so we love to keep these Mudpuppy sets of 20 masks to colour on hand. We have three different choices currently in stock (Jungle, Woodland and Butterflies) for your creative play pleasure:
