School House Rock

I can’t get enough of these decorate-it-yourself boxes – and at $24 bucks, this school house deserves an A+.

Though Alden is still too young for these, my niece, at a very precocious 2 and a half, is only months away from actually going to school. This will be the perfect First Day gift from her cousin.

For little boys, this firehouse is just the thing to keep them busy on a snowed in weekend (white weekends being a rather played out theme here, in Chicago, this winter).

Again. These boxes are the price of a bottle of wine. Which you may need less of if you can keep the wee things busy.

Both available from wonderful Wild Dill.

Wine sold separately.
