In combination with the evergreens – velvet basics – the collection carries us to the sunny beaches of the French coast. Little girls in bloomers and matching dresses are the perfect nostalgic example. Long sleeve t-shirts and hoodies are also essential for Belgian summer days to face the fresh wind from the shore.

Dauwke from mundo melocotón explains: ” With these clothes I wanted to recall the lightness of a carefree childhood from the Seventies and Eighties.
Four of the six colours used in the collection – green, red, aqua, rasberry are one the base of the new line of t-shirts. All the new looks can be perfectly well combined with the items from the permanent collection.

Soft materials
mundo melocotón chose soft jersey for the t-shirts, dresses and bloomers. Nevertheless a collection without the fixed values of velvet pants, shorts and hoodies is unthinkable.

The Rosie Flo colouring books evolved through hours of sitting and drawing with their daughters when they were small. They gave instructions as to what must have been drawn and each time Roz promptly obeyed. Dresses were the most popular items demanded, the girls would then do the faces, arms and legs.

Are your kids crazy about drawing and colouring? If so the Rosie Flo’s and the Johhny Joe’s colouring books ( for boys ) are an absolute must have.The paper quality is thick enough to avoid showing through or damaging the picture on the next page. It is sturdy enough to withstand a few journeys without falling apart and small enough to fit in a child’s hand luggage. The lines are intentionally not too thick, as this makes it look like it is only for preschool children.

Enchanting celebrities and modern parents alike, these bold quirky creatures from Canadian based WOON, are inspired by current runway fashion trends and fabrications. With attention-grabbing designs and a hint of British eccentricity – WOON dolls are the ultimate statement piece. With built-in speakers and an MP3 port safely tucked away inside, parents can download their favorite tunes from Bach to Rock, lullaby renditions of The Beatles, Coldplay, The Rolling Stones & more…and nourish the spirit with cool music. Perfect for strolls, playtime and bedtime rituals – you’ll never have to endure another endless loop of “Twinkle Twinkle” again! WOON dolls easily fasten onto any stroller, crib, car seat, diaper tote or school bag — and are quickly taking over prams, playgrounds and (ahem) college dorm rooms across the globe.

As the universal language, music has been proven to help with the development of children. As an added bonus, it helps them drift away to dreamland at sleepy time and lifts their spirits at playtime. And so, WOON has created the ultimate companion to enrich the lifestyle of today’s modern parents and children alike: designer iDolls.

WOON means LIVE…and in our world kids are encouraged to: Live to love. Love to live. Dare to dream. Make a difference. Change the world.
