Oink

Possibly the best take on a piggy bank I’ve ever seen, Oink reimagines the classic with two large slots for nostrils and corked plugs for ears. The slots make depositing your earnings a breeze, while the corks let you remove your hard earned cash without breaking the bank (pun intended). (via Design Milk)

Sketch Set

Meant for kids… blah, blah, blah. I love this little roll-up sketch kit and it would fit perfectly in my purse for moments of inspiration that need to be captured now.

Typography Teething Toy

Unlike half of the people I know, I am not with child. (Whew.) But I am in love with type, and half tempted to buy one of these typography teether toys from the lovely Amy of Little Alouette to use as decor now and (possibly) kiddie entertainment later.

PS: This shop has the best baby presents!
