I’m guessing no-one wishes they were 1950s housewife … except maybe for the groovy kitchen gear! Hip Kids have captured that domestic retro charm in their gorgeous wooden play kitchen accessories, made to match their toy kitchens. Just check out that cute little mixer (eat your heart out Kitchenaid!) Now the only problem is – does this make you kids’ toaster cooler than yours?
It’s a big step when your little one moves from a cot to their first big bed. You want to make sure they are comfy, safe … and good looks don’t hurt either! Hip Kids‘ range of upholstered beds will work for toddler bedrooms right through to teenage hangouts. Made from faux leather, they’ll be easy to clean no matter what the kids throw, draw, spill on it! They are also super simple to put together, perfect for those missing the DIY gene.
If you’re in the market for a first bike, then chances are you are also having the balance-bike-or-pedal-bike debate. Everyone raves about how much easier it is to teach kids to ride with a balance bike – but you know you’re going to have to replace it with a pedal bike eventually. Thankfully Hip Kids has ended your dilemma because now you simply don’t have to choose! Their two-in-one balance bike starts off without pedals so kids can learn to steady themselves on two wheels. Once they’ve mastered the essential skills of balance, braking and control, add the pedal system and away they go! The set also comes with training wheels if they still need a bit of extra help keeping upright while learning.
