Exciting news huh *grin*
The store is called HappyMamaMade

And the winner is Danya who said 'What a beautiful bus! I love that it has been upcycled from old materials. I think my daughter would love to take this out into the garden. Maybe it can be public transportation for the snails and ladybirds. :)
Good luck!

This is delightful! My Miss Daisy has a song for everything, today we sang our way through a game of cafes and shops! :) She'd have a blast with the wheels on the bus song and all her favourite little people riding along! :) Off to check out her etsy store now - love that it's recycled timber. How special!
ReplyDeleteHow gorgeous! We have lots of fairy and elf play happening at our house, I think they'd love riding on this bus to the fairy village :)

ReplyDeleteOh, I love this little bus! And I know my boys would too! :) I can just see my 3 year old lying down on the ground watching the wheels roll as he pushes it back and forth, back and forth. Or even tying a long cord to it, and pulling it around the house. My 5 year old gives all of his cars/toys a name, I wonder what he would name this one!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous toy! It would inspire all sorts of adventures in our family. I think it would be the superhero's vehicle of choice for a good while, and I can imagine the lovely tracks it would make in our garden (our grass is suffering some what ;P).
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful bus (and so many lovely toys in Andj's Etsy store). I can just see R playing with this, pretending it is taking passengers to the Dinosaur Museum (he asks to go there every day!) Thanks for the great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteMy son is into every kind of vehicle, but his fave right now is the "cool" (school) bus. If he played with this bus like he does with his other vehicles, it would eat breakfast, go on a walk, tote balls that would fit in the windows, and get tucked in for nappies :). Great giveaway that will be loved by any child :).

DeleteHow ADORABLE!!! My little girl is currently very interested in buses and will constantly point them out where ever we go. Very cute. I love that this toy would be so easy for her to hold and I can see her using the holes to thread beautiful spring flowers in. I know she would love doing that. Thank you for sharing information about this store and their products.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely bus. The wood grain and color are beautiful. The holes/windows look perfect to hold on to and stick things into. I not really sure what type of play it would inspire, because the children are such a surprise in what they come up. I'm learning to stand back and let them explore. Except when I'm playing with them and my imagination comes out.
ReplyDeleteIt's so lovely! I can imagine my children sticking little pompom creatures inside the buses' windows and driving it along a pebble rd, beside a blue felt lake to a playdough mountain adorned with twigs and leaves. :)
ReplyDeleteI can imagine it would be used on her farm or zoo playmat as well as just to get ready for school.
ReplyDeleteI think that D and J would take turn driving gnomes to the doctor's. Since I broke my toe, that is all they have been playing! What a lovely new shop they have! The wood is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteCar play and more car play, oh and binoculars too... My boy is car crazy and will use the most curious things to peek through, and this would be used down to the spokes I'm thinking.
ReplyDeleteMy little 14mth Rainbow girl would love the simple back and forth gliding, the cheeky peek a boo, and hiding whilst peeking - she is our cheeky little monkey!
ReplyDeleteOh this is just gorgeous Kelly...I know this would inspire play in our vegie garden...know this sounds odd but my twins have been having fun 'transporting' their harvests around the yard lately....and I can see some purple beans poking out of those windows! Gorgeous work, thanks for sharing x
