Our kiddos love to play hide and seek. They play it with their younger sibs and dog often gets in on the fun. There is something so cool about seeing our tots wonder over discovering something hidden, even if they can see a lab’s tail wagging from behind a bush. We recently happened upon this print of an original collage depicting a bug in the forest playing a game of hide and seek. We love it and think it would make a cool addition to a playroom or any kid’s bedroom. Print measures 8″ x 8″ and is printed on a luster finish archival paper with signature, title and edition number on the back. $20.00, here.

Our tots love to hang out in our tent. We set it up in the backyard and they take blankets and pillows, a few books and favorite plush buddies, making it a second bedroom of sorts. The idea of acquiring a tipi came about when we were at a friend’s house recently who’d made one for their tots. Since we’re still somewhat challenged on the sewing machine (read: dang bobbin), we decided we’d better find a DIY tipi kit pattern or one already made for us. We couldn’t find a kit, so we opted for the ladder. And really, what could be better than your own custom made tipi? Of course Etsy pointed us in the direction of these sweet tipis made by  Oregon seamster, and High School English teacher, NickMaxMama. Each tipi is constructed from duck cloth and measures 52″ tall. The teepee is held up by PVC pipe, making it easy to move and durable. Custom made, orders usually take a couple of weeks to complete. Price is perfect for what you get. $80.00, here.

Oh, how we love the Tenenbaums, actually any film directed by Wes Anderson, but the Tenenbaums kind of took the cake. We saw this film long ago with the men who our kiddos now call papa, and we were obsessed with this wacky family for awhile. We love these prints by Etsy artist Retro Whale of the Tenenbaums. They would make the perfect Father’s Day gift for any Dad who holds a soft spot in his heart for Gene Hackman and Bill Murray. Set of 4 hand drawn and then digitally colored art Prints. Measure 5″x 5” each with a border for framing. Printed on Epson archival matte fine art paper with pigment inks. Prints are signed and shipped in a bend proof mailer. $48, here.

Maybe we watched “The Horse Whisperer” one too many times when we were younger, but we have a real soft spot for horses and our tots seem to love them, too. We live in the city and rarely get the chance to see them, so we have to make up for it in other ways. This print, by Esty artist Amanda Kindregan, struck us when we saw it. The colors are beautiful and the image of a horse and little girl sharing an apple are so sweet, that we have to find a way to incorporate into one of our kiddos rooms. And of course, since this week we’re featuring some of our fave Etsy finds, we had to include it. Digital print of original painting on archival velvet paper. Sorry, no measurements listed, most likely 5″x 7″, may need to e-mail artist for more info. $20.00, here.

What is it about bean bags? We remember loving them when we were kiddos. Their unstructured seating at its best and our tots think they’re fun to flop on, sit in and hide under. Of course, the originals are’nt the most eco-friendly of choices, but we’ve seen some newer versions that don’t have the funky poly fill beads. We’ve never been able to find the right covers for them, so have really steered away, until now. We recently found these bean bag covers where else, but on Etsy. These covers made by Melbourne based company and Esty storekeeper Moolka, are the perfect solution for keeping giving the beanbag a little structure with a super cute cover. The sides of the cover are made from four triangular shapes giving the bean bag neat and tidy shape.  This size beanbag cover would suit from small children up to kids in their pre-teens. Measures 25″ x 34″. A few great styles to choose from. $56.00, here.

We love Etsy for many reasons, one of which is that we can find loads of lettepress prints and cards. We heart all things letterpress and if we had spare time we’d probably take on this old school style of printing as a hobby. We’ve been pining for this numbers letterpress print, designed by Stephanie Lynne Ford for {pop} by Sycamore Street Press, for our tot’s room for awhile. The colors are gorgeous and the clean, modern numbers are perfect. Need we say more? Why not? Letterpress printed on 100% cotton (tree free) paper with soy based inks in tangerine orange and aqua blue. Print measures 11″ x 14″. $30.00, here.

This print of Oliver the Robot, by Artsy, is irresistible to us for a few reasons. We love the idea that a vintage camera could become a robot and have a whole new life beyond its years as a camera. We also really like the colors of this print and think Oliver would look sweet in any kiddos room.  8″x 10″ color photo print of one of an original, recycled assemblage sculpture., printed on Kodak Professional Portra Endura Paper with a matte finish. And original sculptures were created with recycled vintage objects like kitchen appliances, wood toys and game pieces and vintage cameras. A great photo of a totally unique piece of art. $18.00, here. 

Months ago we reviewed our little doll friend Audrey by Little Big Pants. We just love her and decided to include her photo booth shots this week for fun. We heart the idea of a dolly going to a photo booth. We spent many a day in our formative years huddled inside them with friends, future boyfriends and we’ve always liked the distilled moments they seem to capture. The black and white photos are the best. In these shots, Audrey and her friend Oliver are making funny faces for the camera. We realize these photos don’t make sense if you don’t have an Audrey doll, but since she’s become a recent addition to our family, we had to pick up her photos, they add to the charm. 5″ x 7″ photo of three photo strips of Aubrey and Oliver together and separate. $12.00, here.

As amateur photographers with a soft spot for vintage cameras, there’s something really cool about seeing our tots wearing a Hasselblad camera on their t-shirt. These medium-format cameras were produced starting around world War II and have gained popularity with pros and amateurs ever since. Thanks to Film Monsters you can get a this Hasselblad screen printed on an American Apparel long sleeve stylish, tailored and super soft t-shirt. Size up to allow for shrinkage. Sweet with a bit of hipster thrown in, love. Available in 2,4,6,8,10 and 12, plus loads of colors. $26.00, here.

It’s all about celebrating mamas this week, so we’ve compiled a few items that have been on our wish lists for when we’re feeling plush and not so guilty about splurging on ourselves. We’ve been drooling over this silkscreen print, by artist Wayne Pate of Good Shape Design, for about a year. We found it at one of our favorite online shops, Three Potato Four and  think it’s high time we treat ourselves to it, since it’s Mama’s Day in a few days. The orange+red print appropriately titled “Flock” reminds us of vintage 60s art and the pyramid of birds is quite sweet. And though we want this piece for ourselves, we’re pretty sure the kiddos will love it, too. Print measures 18″ x 24″ and ships rolled in a sturdy mailing tube. Print is listed as out of stock, but can be ordered, may take a little bit longer. $35.00, here.

When looking for a desk for our toddler, we knew it had to be compact, since her bedroom is roughly the size of  a king sized bed. We decided on this one by P’kolino for it’s portability and size, plus it’s perfect for small projects and has a bit of storage built in. Constructed from fiber board with wood veneer. Measures 17¾” x 22½”  x 20″ and weighs 16½ lbs. Perfect for the 2-6 crowd. Meets US, EU, and Canadian safety standards. Affordable and good looking, sold. $69.99, here.

We’ve been drooling over Helen Rawlinson’s textiles for months now and recently discovered that a friend of ours had beat us to buying one of her pillows. Oh well, we’ll get to it soon. We absolutely love Rawlinson’s vibrant prints and are particularly enamored by the fact that her screen prints are hand pulled using solvent free, water based inks on unbleached organic, plain weave cotton. All of her prints are gorgeous, but we love the alphabet and numbers print so very much. Perfect for any kiddo’s room and safe for even the most wee of babes. Sold as textiles or pillows, her fabrics can easily be transformed into a pillow or if you’re a better seamstress than this cleeo & bea mama, you could make some new duds for your tots. Measures 18″ square. $14.50, here.

It’s pretty difficult to find environmentally friendly and 100% recycled print art. A lot of times when we do, we don’t like it, but occasionally we get lucky, and in this case we did. We love these sweet little forest friends prints we found by artist mama Rebecca Peragine of art & philanthropy. They’re minimal, gender neutral (thank you), cute and the perfect, eco-friendly piece for any kiddo’s room. Created with scrap paper, some of the tree trunks even display text, and printed on heavy 100% PCW recycled paper using soy ink. Non-toxic. Measures 11″ x 14″. Price is right, $28.00, here.
