Kobold Toys welcomed the fabulous line of products from North American Bear Co. Nearly 30 years ago,
North American Bear Company began as a creative business enterprise of a new mother, Barbara Isenberg, starting a family in New York City in the mid-1970’s. Their product line has evolved and while it still includes the loveable and cuddly bears they are known for worldwide, the company has expanded to include play items, like the princess and
superhero capes, and "toys to go."
Today's Beat the Heat Campaign celebrates North American Bear and specifically their
Hush Little Baby activity book. The team at Kobold Toys loves this activity book! Your child will be delighted to find a surprise toy on every page that corresponds to the characters in the song "Hush Little Baby"; a felt baby with accessories, a bird, a mirror, a little diamond ring, a goat, a cart and bull, a dog, and a horse.
The accordion-style activity book expands and lays flat for easy hanging across the side of the crib. A red-checked ribbon and Velcro tab closures secure the book when closed.
The" rules" for our summer campaign have not changed. For the next seven days "Beat the Heat" with Kobold Toys and receive a 10% discount on the Hush Little Baby activity book as well as
any other adorable item from North American Bear Co. Just use discount code
788FFF at check-out. We love the
calico hippo, any of the cute
handbags (which you can stock up on now for Christmas gifts!), and, of course, the
silly old tan bear, perfect for baby.
Stay cool and have fun learning!
We just ordered this super stunning halloween dress for Anna (not sure if there will be more of these by the time this posts but she has plenty other styles and fabric choices.) Really fun clothes that are unique. Your girl will surely be noticed! 
As you may guess from reading this blog, my daughter, Miss E, is not into pink or princesses. She was a knight for Halloween last year and insisted that her eight month old brother serve as her pet dragon. She does not concern herself with the woes of the Disney princesses, and she prefers the adventures of the Swiss Family Robinson or SpaceDogs. At our first playdate with a girl from her class, she repeatedly came downstairs to complain that all her friend wanted to do was dress up in girly clothes... the horror!
ng to celebrate pink today and honor Miss A with all things fit for a princess. Here are some suggestions courtesy of Kobold Toys for the princesses in your life! 
p your own Cinderalla. Consider the Princess Doll Making Kit by 4M. No pins or needles are required- just a quick "bippity, boppity, boo!", tape, glitter, etc. (all included) and you have a princess ready for a name (she also comes with a birth certificate) and a kingdom.
If your royal wannabe has a crafty side, consider the Color Me Puzzle Enchanted Kingdom or the Princess Window Mosaic. Wonderful distractions/projects when the heat is too much or the castle is under seige!
(naturally!), and many other accessories. Expand the castle with the Royal Bedroom, Royal Kitchen and Royal Nursery. And if you have my daughter coming over for a playdate, you may want to add the Red Dragon for dramatic castle attacks! It may keep her upstairs during a play date!
I am visiting my family in South Georgia this week, and it is HOT. Seriously hot. We are definitely exploring ways we can beat the heat with indoor activities, so this week's campaign celebrates Faber-Castell! 
Kobold Toys' pick of the week is the Faber-Castell Premium Art Gift Set. The set includes: 12 Oil Pastels, 24 Colored Pencils, 12 Glitter Dough, 6 Broadline Markers, Modeling Clay, 10 Sheets of Watercolor Paper, 14 Fineline Markers, 10 Sheets Drawing Paper, 8 Watercolor Pencils, 1 Paintbrush and and a Sharpener. Everything is organized in a sturdy wooden box with removable trays and metal latch closure. The perfect gift for your budding artist!
