Welcome to the cutest of all the Holiday Gift Guides! We’ve covered presents for the Office Secret Santa, and now we’re tackling kids pressies. Read on for our top (and cutest) picks from our Premium member-owned businesses…
Kippins Banjo Organic Cotton Cuddle Blankie
In 2013, Premium member Heather Rowland was tired. Really effing tired. With a 7-month-old baby who just wouldn’t sleep or nap for long periods of time, the sleep deprivation drove her to research and develop a range of sustainable and organic baby comforters. Fast forward to 2019, and Heather has sold tens of thousands Kippins comforters to parents around the world. Kippins has now expanded their offering to include sleepwear, clothes, books, play mats and swaddles, but we love the Aussie themed character blankies – they make great gifts to send overseas too.
