natural pod {giveaway!}
With the completion of Lily's second day of school I have seen a change in her. Her creativity his piqued, she's more interested in painting, play-do, and crafting than she has been over the summer. Watching a child create is one of my favorite things, their imaginations take over, a blob becomes a monster or a fairy princess, a squiggle a horse or monkey and best of all they aren't watching TV. Natural Pod has become my go-to for imaginative toys, they're selection of natural toys, art supplies, dolls and musical instruments can't be beat.
Today they are offering one lucky reader their back to school arts and crafts pack, which is beyond incredible and will create multiple opportunities for your little one to use their imagination.
Pack includes:
Organic Playdough (set of 6) $35
Playdough has always been a way for a child's imagination to take shape. This organic playdough has been specifically formulated to be soft and smooth, made with the finest all natural ingredients including plant extracts and natural preservatives, the containers recyclable and the unfinished wood crate holds the playdough, but can be used for decorative storage in your home.
Colours: purple sweet potato, tumeric yellow, caramel brown, spinach green, annato orange and "no colour"
Water Color Painting Board (small) $11
Handcrafted from 5-ply birch wood and sealed with a non-toxic, low VOC natural nish that protects against warping, these boards are perfectly suitable for wet-on-wet painting and will outlast most other boards on the market. 15" long and 11.5" wide.
Watercolor Brushes $12
These brushes are handmade using natural materials from sustainable resources. They are ideal high-quality brushes for wet-on-wet watercolor projects.
Woolpets Sleepy Sheep Kit $15
This kit is designed for those new to needle felting. It includes step by step instructions with photographs for each step. Made from Romney and Merino wool. Children under the age of ten should have adult supervision as it does use a sharp needle.
