I offer hope for those who have never won a blog giveaway. I finally won a one! My first. And not just any old blog giveaway either. A real wing-dinger!
I won a dress up set from The Little Travelers!!
Sinbad sails the sea!

This is the Traveler's Set. As I pulled piece after piece from the bag, even my husband was astonished. Huck was absolutely apoplectic. I just can't recommend these sets enough. They're just about the most fabulous, open-ended toys for children that I can imagine. I have to say, while he loves his reversible knight/king costume, cowboy costume and clown things, this set is getting lots more play at the moment. There's just so dang much to do with it. Perhaps this will be the kick in the butt I need to finish his set of kool-aid dyed play silks.
Now I'm looking for a good way to store all his wonderful costumes so they don't end up covered in cat hair. I love this and this with all my heart, but don't have the room or the resources at present. Until we outgrow it we'll be using this really cool 1940s suitcase a friend recently gave us. Thanks, Ginny!
And if you haven't ever checked out The Little Traveler's blog, you really should. They are 2 young girls who travel the world with their Mom immersing themselves in foreign cultures. Along the way they shoot and narrate videos of their travels which are also available on their website. We have The Little Travelers in Japan (which is amazing!) and The British Isles (which we're saving for a bit). There's also a Bali DVD and the DVD of their trip to Iran will be available soon. These are great and truly educational DVDs for kids.
