The Magic Tree! {nostalgia}

My youngest daughter turns three in a couple of months and up until now I had no idea what to get her. We already have a house full of girl things and things age appropriate for 3 year olds.

Last week I headed off to Magnolia Square tiny and small in search of a 1 year old present which I did find (thanks Little Bubble and Tree and Gertie & Me!) But the icing on the cake was this:

The Klorfil Magic Tree by Vulli.

The lovely Cecile from Les Folies was there and they are the Australian Distributor for these little gems.

What’s so fantastic about the tree I hear you ask – well, it’s a bit of nostalgia really – you see these tree’s have been around forever – since I was a child – and I always wanted one, but never had one – and now I’m getting one! Well, um ah, my daughters getting one for her birthday. I know she’ll love it, it even has little birds tweeting.

Enough gush for this post, thank you Vulli for still making the magic tree. xx
