Since I discovered the existence of beautifully curated kids shops, both online and on site, my kids’ selection of toys has gone up a notch. They’re -slowly- replacing big ugly plastic trucks with wooden airplanes and exciting puzzles. And the kids genuinely love them.

The first thing we saw was my baby book. Which is now considered a proper vintage item.
