Wishbone Three Way Wooden Ride On By Cheeky Rascals £120 At Not On The High Street

This wishbone toy would be ideal as a birthday and Christmas present as they are suitable from 1 to 5 year old. This wooden toy is inspired by rocking horse which is a traditional toy with an eco friendly twist as it is  built from sustainable wood. 

From 12 months old, it starts off as a compact rocker and as the child grows, you flip the base and it turns into a push toy; great for those first, supported steps. Later, the toy can be used in mode 3 as a ride-on toy for whizzing around the house.

Sir Edward Teddy Bear By Steiff

Sir Edward Teddy Bear £199 By Steiff

There's no doubt this is an expensive teddy bear but one that can become a family heirloom which is passed down from one generation to another. Whilst I don't know who 'Sir Edward' is, the teddy bear does have an old fashion vibe that I found very appealing. 

This is a limited edition teddy bear as there are only 1,500 Sir Edward bears are available worldwide. This baroque bear is made in Germany by Steiff from the finest golden mohair. The bear comes dressed in a jacquard manorial coat, silk dupion waistcoat and a handmade lace jabot. His paws are crafted in the finest felt and his face is adorned with a hand stitched nose and mouth and black beaded eyes.

Elmer The Elephant Music Box By Trousselier

Elmer The Elephant Music Box By Trousselier  €28 at French Blossom  

I saw this and immediately it reminded me of a similar music box my sister and I had as little children. We had to twist the butterfly tuner located on the side so that the figurine at the top would will then twist and turn. I just love the bright colours on this music box. Fans of Elmer The Elephant would love this music box and it would make an ideal gift.

This wind up music box plays the lovely tune ‘Fantasia in D minor’ while the Elephants twist and turn across the surface of the musical box.
