Did you read my previous ♥ post about this wonderful organic night light softie? If you were eagerly awaiting his arrival in Aus, you need wait no more!

This delightful fella - and a couple of other cute companions - is now in store at local ethical shop Fairground Child.

If we were judging toys on their ability to grab attention, then this little pup (above, top) would certainly be leading the pack. And he’s got plenty to bark about too, from his 100% organic cotton outer to a biodegradeble corn fibre inner!
Kik & Boo is a French brand with a Dutch born creator and designer, Coty Jeronimus, at its helm; hence the name which is derived from the Dutch expression kiekeboo and means ‘peek a boo’ in English.

Coty’s intent was to produce a playful range of earth friendly kids’ products, something that’s been brilliantly achieved in the bubbly collection which carries Oeko Tex 100 certification and recycled swing tags.

Today it seems only fitting to introduce you to the ♥ Global Green Pals. The five fab friends (and no doubt your child’s new bestie!) stand 12” tall, and come packing a fair bit of eco nous; Pani Rani, or ‘Water Princess’ grew up in India and knows how important water is to kids, while Clean Air Kate loves .. yep, clean air, which is why she also loves to plants trees and ride her bike!

Each eco role model is handmade in Sri Lanka (the manufacturer was given a ‘Garments Without Guilt’ award in 2009) from organic cotton stuffed with recycled PET fibre, and carries a recycled card with some cool eco tips to get your kids started on the green track.
Another ‘earth’ bonus, when you purchase a pal a portion from the sale is given to 1% For The Planet.

There’s a ton to love about k studio’s sustainable decor accessories, from the cute n’ quirky 28” profiles of their figure pillows (above), to the originally conceived family series; customisable wall art, pillows (below) and totes embroidered with a range of family characters: adults, kids and pets!


Based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, the mother and daughter team behind k studio, Mary and Shelly Klein, use only sustainable fabrics, including organic cotton, hemp and recycled wool, in natural shades or gorgeous pistachio and thyme hues.
There’s a little of everything in their fabulously fun range to please most green decor aficionados; the handmade pieces depict drawings taken from daughter Shelly’s paintings and are a fabulous breath of eco design for playful homes!
