CGM Picks: Gifts for Kids

As as mom, and co-owner of a small (by modern, American standards) home, I've shyed away (read: refused to own) a play house that lived in our real (small) house.

This tablecloth play house is ingenious. If my son weren't already 4' tall (and if our dining room wasn't in storage for reasons to be discussed later), I might buy this.

I always liked "toys" that encouraged imaginative play - this looks like a great option. My only complaint is that it doesn't come in more traditional boy-ish colors. My almost-six-year old refuses to use pink as it's a "girl color". Whatever.

Other picks from the Gilt Groupe kids sale today:

 The doorway puppet theater and the portable beanbag hopscotch - adorable. Again, the former encouraging imaginative play and the latter an oldie but goodie - I loved hopscotch as a kid. Maybe, I still do ... should look into that.
