Now that the bigger kids are back at school, the little kids rule the parks and the playgrounds! So, get out there and make the most of it whilst the weather's still nice-ish- take your parachute playmat and have a picnic somewhere; grab the Smart Trike and go for a tootle; grab a ball and play some footie - a bit of fresh air, fun and laughter is good for us all. And, it has this amazing knack of making babies soooooo sleepy!.
Talking about sleeping, it's probably time to start thinking about upgrading to a 2.5tog Grobag - so to help you out, we've given them all a bit of a discount! Whilst you're checking out the Bedroom section, why don't you take a look at some great decorating ideas to help brighten up kids' rooms - they don't cost much but can really transform a bedroom or playroom.
Breaking News: The web’s best guide to shopping on the internet, “The Shopaholic’s Guide to Buying Online”, has been turned into a book, and the babyworld shop’s included! Out in bookshops soon and serialised by the Daily Mail, you’re fortunate to be amongst the “in-crowd” who found us first!

Meet babyworld's product testers...
Xander (age 2 years) says
I thought that I was WAY to old for a sling - Caro ditched our old one before I was 4 months old as it was really uncomfy for her. The other day, we went out to feed the ducks and I was feeling a bit tired and lazy so didn't really fancy walking - wanted to be carried. Out came this Babasling thing and in a jiffy there I was, slung on a hip, Caro barely missing a stride! Must be good because she didn't complain once about me being a big lump! I found it comfy too, but to be honest I was more interested in the ducks.. Xander

Babaslings
It's taken a long while to find a sling that's come up to our exacting
standards, but here it is - the Baba Sling! It's taken all the good
things that make baby wearing so good and so easy, and eliminated
all the bad bits. No more clashing fabric designs and oodles of
confusing fabric, no more slipping, sliding or cutting into your
shoulder. The Baba Sling offers the modern parent a traditional
carrying solution which also supports fair trade practices and quality
workmanship - we celebrate it's simplicity and its effectiveness,
and encourage everyone to give baby wearing a go, babies love it!!

Trunki
Fresh from a bit of a "roasting" on Dragons Den, but most importantly
a relaxation of the carry-on baggage regulations the Trunki's are
flying out of the babyworld shop. What do those dragons know anyhow?
It's a fab idea that the kids love and anything that keeps them
happy on long, boring journeys has got to be a good thing!

TESTING, TESTING
Fatboy Original
In my house we have a Fatboy
Original and it is (almost) my favourite place in the whole
world! It’s like an enormous nest that I sit in when I watch my
favourite DVDs and when my Da-da and I read stories together. I
also love jumping into it, running into it and generally climbing
all over it. It’s enormous, so I get to sit with Caro and Da-Da
when we watch the TV together or call my Granny or Grandpa in Australia.
I know Caro and Da-Da try very hard not to fight over who gets to
sit on it, so I might get them a Junior
Fatboy each so there’s no arguments!. Xander

Letters of the Month
Excellent service
The Natures Nest cradle arrived to our home in Ireland on Monday
of this week after only having been ordered last Wednesday. That
is excellent service, thank you! It looks terrific. Now we hope
our first grandchild due in three weeks will arrive in a timely
fashion also!
Johanna
Fast delivery
Just a quick email to thank you for the very fast delivery of the
car seat and isofix base - I placed the order online on Sunday night,
and it was delivered by Tuesday lunchtime. I would certainly recommend
your site and I will be using it again.
Louise Woods
Just amazing
I have been meaning to email you for the past two weeks - but soooooo
busy! All i can say that my trip over to you the other day has been
the most sucessful ever! The doomoo is just amazing - has really
made a massive difference to Harry. We take it everywhere! It is
just perfect and he looks lush in it! Two of our friends have now
brought one. I also have a friend who said she will get it from
you - so i am going to come over again soon if that is ok?
