The Night Lion
Morgan, an endearing tousle-haired little boy, feels big and strong during the day with his tall hat and his toy sword. But at night, when he dreams that a robber is coming through the woods to take these precious possessions, all of Mom’s assurances that “there is no robber” are not enough to ease his fears. Then Nana brings Morgan a stuffed toy lion, because everybody needs a lion sometimes—and because sometimes, fears in a child’s mind can only be conquered with the imagination. That night, Morgan rides a life-sized Night Lion into the woods and together they drive the robber far away. Comforting watercolour illustrations soothe any scary scenes, and the magical Night Lion will find an instant welcome in young readers’ hearts. A darling offering from author/illustrator Sanne Dufft

The Floor is Lava
Doesn’t get any hotter than this! The Floor is Lava game is an official version of the improvisational imagination game that kids have been playing for decades. In Endless Games’ The Floor is Lava, the game has more structure, strategy and quick-thinking, quick-reaction game play elements. …And it saves your furniture. Most people have played a sudden “shout out” game, where someone yells “lava” and everyone jumps all over the furniture trying to stay off the dangerous floor. Endless Games created a format where players continue to imagine the floor is molten hot lava, but added play patterns using a spinner for color call-outs and having players jump along foam game pieces in order to reach safety. Challenge cards that enforce activities that can make it difficult not to fall into the lava come into play when landing on certain tiles. The game incorporates physical activity, imagination and pure fun.

The Bondaroo
Comfortable Kangaroo Care Shirt for Dads (or Moms) which provides easy access to parent’s chest for active bonding skin to skin with their infants and newborns.
A new study from The Kangaroo Foundation in Bogota, Colombia found that premature and low weight babies who participated in skin to skin contact during the first weeks of life were less likely to be hyperactive and aggressive as young adults, compared with those premature babies who did not receive the same type of care. “The study indicates that kangaroo style care has significant long-lasting social and behavioral protective effects 20 years after the intervention,” stated Dr. Nathalie Charpak, a pediatrician involved in the study.
