Based on characters and stories by Mr. Clement when he was 15 (in 1995), there is now a set of the figurines and (now out of print) graphic novels available in limited edition.

"The poseable figures come with a knife and an envelope. The Gourgeous Habour is Mr. Clement's latest work, featuring an "astro lapin" and touching on love in a rapidly changing world. Some mature themes."

If you've been eying the Panton Junior chair, now is your chance to get it for a song.

This is a great molded plywood desk for children which includes a cool notch for threading drawing paper across the desktop.

I don't really like to use the word "cute", but in this case, it's entirely applicable. Love the silver elephant image on the powder blue background.

"They're the perfect size for a child to sit on, but the bright, engaging designs and foam filling make them fun to climb on, too, and roll around, and just plain enjoy."

High quality, durable vinyl. Insert is 100% recycled cotton. Zippered closures.

12 W x 12 H x 12 D

The Panton chair for kids is now available. 25% smaller than the original.

"Panton toyed with the idea of creating a child-size chair back in the 1960s, and drew up plans for its creation. Back then, production issues made the Panton Junior financially unfeasible, however the following decades brought new plastics technologies, and in 2006, Vitra introduced the Panton Junior. The chair is based on Panton's original plans, complete with the smooth curves and fun shape of the larger Panton Chair. It's crafted as a single piece of strong, flexible polypropylene with integral color that will not fade over time. Wonderfully durable and easy to clean, the Panton Junior is suitable for contract and residential use for children in pre-school and primary grades."

What a great rocker for a baby. Available in wood and soon also available in plexi.

Rocks safely for birth to 20 lbs.
