Welcome to the pre-Christmas edition of our weekly newsletter, Fab Five Faves. With the holidays upon us, this past week has been all about three things: toys, toys and more toys. So if any of you last-minute gift-givers are looking for something special, here are our 5 most popular items of the past week:
Sprig’s classic no-battery, kinetic-energy-powered Rally Racer is always a fan favorite. Bonus: smells so good. Like a woodshop. Really. (Rally Racer’s yellow cousin, the Baja Scout, is equally sweet.)
Offered in three varieties (Birds & Owls, pictured here; Roadway; and Airplanes), Sam and Bellie’s chalkmats are the perfect companion for eating on the go. One side is a beautifully printed placemat; flip it over to reveal a reusable chalkboard surface to keep little ones busy while waiting for their food.
Both a teether and a squeak toy, Sophie is equally loved by girls and boys and one of our most consistently popular items. Made of natural rubber in the French Alps since 1961, Sophie’s many teething surfaces make her the perfect soother throughout the varied and often arduous stages of teething.
Making its second appearance in this spot in the past 3 weeks, Miss Brittany’s Organic Preschool Fundough Kit is one of the best gift buys in the store. Beautifully packaged with three containers of modeling dough, a rolling pin, wood shape stampers and a kid-sized apron reading “Organically Awesome,” it’s a sure-fire crowd-pleaser.
Green Toys is a pioneer in the, well, green toys space. Made from recycled milk jugs, this 27-piece set provides everything necessary for your child to serve their very first sit-down meal.
If nothing here catches your fancy, here’s one more reason to make a last-minute holiday purchase:
Now through Tuesday, December 22, take 20% off EVERYTHING in the store. Yep, everything. Just use coupon code lastminute at checkout.
But please remember, if you need your items delivered before Christmas, make sure to select the appropriate shipping option at checkout (especially those of you on the West Coast). If you have a question about shipping times, please do not hesitate to contact us at 866-456-8342 or customerservice@greenobambino.com.
Fab Five Faves will be taking a holiday next week, so we’ll see you in two. Enjoy whatever it is you have planned!
Now I’m not going to say I’ve never used my cell phone while taking my kids for a stroll, but I’ll be damned if I’d be willing to buy a special rig to attach to the stroller. That just seems a little, well, pathetic. Maybe I’m just too ashamed to admit that my addiction to connectivity has reached that level (but oh, it has).
We’re coming to you with another edition of our weekly spot, Fab Five Faves. And it’s a very special edition at that, because today Greeno Bambino is celebrating its first anniversary! In honor of this occasion, we’re offering you a very special deal. Just stroll on down to the bottom of this newsletter to check it out. But first, here’s what your fellow GB fans are groovin’ on this week:
The perfect way to keep it clean at mealtime. Thoughtfully designed with a semi-detachable Smart Pocket and comfortable over-the-shoulder closure, Sam and Bellie’s non-toxic bibs are available in three vibrant prints.
Coupling the design sensibility of pop-artist creator Daniel Monahan with both bath toy and teether functionality, Ducki is so much more than your average rubber ducky. Available in citrus (yellow), caribbean (blue), pink and green.
Available in 7 adorable animal designs, these cozy bath towels are one of the most popular gift items at Greeno Bambino. So soft and cuddly, our little ones practically jump out of the tub to wrap themselves in their furry friends.
The product of two amazingly charismatic women in the Bay area, Little Green Star has been a fan favorite for some time. Seems the holidays have made this anti-litter ladybug even more popular.
We love Naturepedic for its combination of high-quality materials – including organic cotton and natural, non-toxic flame retardant – and industry-leading research into child sleep safety. Seems your fellow customers love them too. Naturepedic is also the rare company that offers affordable, speedy customization of mattress size and shape. (Contact us if you need a special order.)
Now that you’ve seen this week’s Fab Five Faves, it’s time to share with you a special 1st Birthday discount, only for Greeno Bambino newsletter subscribers:
Through Thursday, Dec. 17, take 20% off all toys at Greeno Bambino. Just use coupon code happybirthday at checkout. (All orders placed by that time will arrive before Dec. 25.)
We’re back with our weekly edition of Fab Five Faves – in which we review our customers’ favorite items for the past week. Looks like GB lovers have two things on the brain so far this holiday season: toys and germs. Guess that makes sense…What good is fun-time if you’re mired in flu-time? OK – let’s see what’s topping the charts this week:
The brainchild of an enterprising young New York City pre-school teacher with a Master’s Degree in Early Childhood Education (aka Miss Brittany), this modeling dough kit is the perfect gift for any toddler who wants to build her own wintry wonderland. (Comes complete with dough, wood shapes, rolling pin and apron.)
The entire line of BabyGanics household cleaners was just recently added to the shop, and these versatile, non-toxic wipes have quickly become a big hit.
Like no other blocks in your child’s toy collection, Tree Blocks are the most unique, natural set of blocks around. Bonus: they’re made by a California-based company with a deep devotion to environmental conservation and workers’ rights.
If you demand only the most carefully formulated body care products on the market, accept nothing less than VMV Hypoallergenics. VMV’s alcohol-free Kid Gloves Hand Sanitizer is gentle yet highly effective, and is free of all 65 known allergens.
Well there you have it – this week’s Fab Five Faves. Hey, they’re popular for a reason.
Make sure to keep an eye on Greeno Bambino over the next week, as we have some great new products about to hit the shelves.
