Firstly congratulations to Rachel Rose from QLD who is the winner of our April eco hamper give away.

This month we are giving away a free gift for all those lovely mamas out there. All you need to do is spend a minimum of $50 (excluding postage) at Eco Toys and you get a free copy of Barefoot Magazine. This offer is valid for the whole month of May 2009.

Barefoot is an awesome new parenting magazine that focuses on conscious parenting, environmental issues, alternative health & schooling, nurturing our children and respectful communication. It is published in Melbourne and is the work of three dedication mums who want to share their passion and love for children, people and the earth.

I’ve had the opportunity to spend some time with Anna, one of the writers and part owner of Barefoot and I just love what they are doing. Plus Barefoot is such a fantastic read, full of interesting articles and information on all the things that are important to me as a parent.

Now for some more exciting news! I have a box full of new goodies that was delivered earlier on today so I’m off to have a play with them. Will keep you updated but remember to look out for our new range of toys coming very soon!
