P’Kolino Toddler Bed

by Tadpole on April 13, 2012

This clever toddler bed by P’Kolino coverts from a toddler bed with side guards to a cozy oversized chair, easily extending the life of this smart-looking piece of children’s furniture!

The perfect size for little ones transitioning to a proper bed, the P’Kolino toddler bed fits any standard crib mattress, is made from quality wood construction, features side rails so that little ones don’t roll out and also comes with a comfy chair pad to use when the bed has been converted.

The P’Kolino toddler bed is available in orange, white and the brown & white ‘cafe con leche’ look. Three colour choices that could easily fit into any child’s room.

We currently have the ‘cafe con leche’ toddler bed as a display in the store, so stop on by and check it out!

Designed in New Zealand, the Wishbone bike is an incredibly well-designed run-bike to take your child from 12 months to 5 years! With the clever 3-in-1 design, the bike starts out as a trike. As the child grows the trike can be converted into a low 2-wheeled run-bike and once the child has outgrown this size the frame can be flipped over to make the bike even taller!

The Wishbone bike also comes in special edition models, such as the Wollemi limited edition print.

And even the standard bike can be customized with stickers and silicone seat covers!

Also in the Wishbone line-up is the Flip, the 3-in-1 indoor ride-on toy. The Flip starts out like a rocker, then converts to a push toy or ride-on wheeled toy.Requiring no tools to easily convert from rocker to ride-on, the Flip is a wonderful toy to have indoors!

Made from sustainably sourced birch, and meeting current US, EU, Australiand and New Zealand safety standards, the wishbone bike is not only fun, but also a ‘green’ alternative for your child!

We currently have the following in stock:

  • Wishbone Flip
  • Wishbone Original Bike
  • Wishbone Wollemi Ltd Edition Bike
  • Flame and Flower Stickers
  • Wishbone Bike Seat Covers

The weather is warming up, so stop on in and check out the wishbone bikes today!
