Here are some pics of a new design I have just finished, it is a one-off, not planning to repeat it, so grab it now if you like it. I can personalise it with a name on the other door if that tickles your fancy, just state the name you’d like on the notes/comments section of the order form. I’ve listed it on my Etsy page here. Gotta run, dinners in the oven… oooo multi-task me!
What a lovely surprise to be flicking through Living Etc, one of my fave UK interiors mags and see a Moozle mention and credit in their ‘stylish rooms for cool kids’ article featuring a kids play teepee tent (UK Jan issue page 118) Fantastic! Happy Christmas everyone!
New colour choices for names on your kids play teepee coming soon! These tents will be available with the name of your choice on my Etsy page in the New Year. Lots more colour choices available – just send me a message if you have a request via moozlehome
.
Lots of fun was had this afternoon snapping the new Animal teepee and a plain one in lovely Poppy’s pretty room. It was a challenge to get some shots of the tents without one or 3 of the four kids in or around the tents but I think the results are pretty good! To see the ‘other’ photos complete with kids playing madly go to the Flickr page (spot the pic of moody Dolly and Poppy fed-up with being told they can play in the tent in “a minute”!). Listed on the Moozlehome Etsy page and for sale on moozlehome – go get yours! The gorgeous wooden enchanted tree is from Cocoon Couture in Melbourne – I WANT one… joy ohjoy it’s on sale (but still $250 Aussie dollars!) but, alas, they don’t ship outside Australia *sob*
I’ve just found this interesting article about the benefits of play tents and tunnels to a child’s development skills, such as imaginary play helping with speech and brain development, motor skills (for instance, coordinating crawling into a tent whilst holding a large teddy), spacial awareness, all kinds of stuff… and I just thought they looked pretty (well, mine do!).
read the article for yourself here Fun Educational toys
an exert ‘… crawling is very important for motor and brain development. It teaches cross movements (a higher level of using your arms and legs) and helps the brain hemispheres to learn to interact properly.’
Beautiful boys room, taken from Modern Handmade Child photo by Yoko Inoue. There is a great ‘get the look’ article relating to this image on the hmc.com link above… it features a Moozlehome teepee tent !
