here’s something quite magical about matching with your mini-me, never more so than with luxury nightwear brand Desmond & Dempsey’s new kid’s line. Featuring several of the brand’s most familiar prints, like the Sansindo Tiger and the Howie pineapple in the softest cotton, these pyjamas are perfect for family lounging and are available in adult sizes and for children aged between two and nine years old. I’m always looking for interesting toys to keep my kids happy and they don’t come more entertaining than the new Zig & Go collection from Djeco. There are five action-reaction-construction game sets, each with three different circuits that are wacky, surprising and spectacular. Spectacle aside, Zig & Go is designed to teach children focus, patience and adaptability.
