The gift that keeps on giving

Learn to walk, ride, and balance all at once with the Wishbone Bike.

The Wishbone Bike Original 3-in-1 is a gift that keeps on giving as it grows with your baby. Start with a baby walker to a toddler trike, and then convert it into your child’s very first balance bike. So easy to use, babies can walk with their Wishbone Bike, then ride outside to the park. Later, convert to two wheels and watch your toddler have fun balancing. No pedals, no stress. Its lightweight, fully repairable and the adjustable frame is made from natural wood, making it perfect for indoor, outdoor, and 'off-road' use.

Ideal for 12 months to 5 years

Puzzles

Puzzles are a timeless pastime for kids of all ages, and with good reason. They not only provide kids with a fun challenge, but they also help them learn various life skills that are necessary for navigating the world. Several advantages include

- Effective problem-solving
- Improved fine motor abilities
- Enhanced memory
- Increase your focus on detail
- Improved cognition and visual-spatial reasoning

The 200-piece Hape Glow in the Dark Jigsaw Puzzle is one of our favourites. The puzzle depicts the sea life of the ocean in spectacular vivid colours. The puzzle provides an immersive experience once finished as it glows in the dark, allowing your children to see dinosaurs with a flick of a switch. A great activity for the whole family to participate in.


Suitable for ages 6+

Books

Include a few brand new books in your child's bedtime routine. Reading to your child is an enjoyable experience for both the child and the caregiver, and it’s also a nice way to set a calm tone for the evening. We’ve got a wide selection of books depending on your child’s interests.

Here are our top three favourites

1. Adventure - Kiwis and Koalas Book: When Lily’s Mum tells her that she wishes she could build a bridge between their two homes, Lily and her dog, Woof, swap stick hunts for bridge hunts and set off in search of a bridge to Australia. A little girl, her furry best friend and a big imagination.

2. Values - Feeling Grateful Book: When we look closely at everyday moments - laughing with loved ones, seeing a daffodil bloom, whispering between friends - we notice they aren’t so ordinary. They are, in fact, wonderfully miraculous, if we take the time to notice.
