We’ve been staying at my family’s beach house on Bainbridge Island this week, where the water is cold and the beaches are rocky. The kids are in heaven! We have all spent the past few days collecting rocks on our beach walks, and today, while Marlow napped, we sat down in the shade to paint them. It was a fun afternoon activity and one that we all enjoyed.

Heather, a mum of two and the founder of Noc Noc Wooden Toys recently got in touch with Bambino to say hello to our audience and  introduce her brand. She’s a local mum, living just twenty minutes from us!

Heather’s desire to source a collection of hand-crafted, original bespoke wooden toys from around the globe, turned into a passion for creating her own pieces. With a lot of hard manual labour, she is  securely locked into 2017 with a bigger appetite for hand crafting our own quality toys.

As Heather and her Noc Noc Wooden Toys wrestle with the challenges of running a growing micro-business, her aim is to ensure that you experience our passion for quality at fair prices. There is nothing more fulfilling than knowing that your special loved one is enjoying something that we have created or sourced with love.

Noc Noc Wooden Toys specialises in organic and handcrafted wooden rattles, blocks and teethers. All the products are made to order and handcrafted here in USA from organic, sustainable wood. Heather sent me a little bundle with two personalised rattles for Wilkie, and they are so beautiful. Not only that, but he LOVES them. They fit perfectly into his little hands and make the most gentle knock-knock noise as they are shaken about. What a perfect new baby gift!
