children's colouring and crafts
The idea of the Carddies came about by chance…when Raquel started making little cardboard people and animals for her girls to colour in (Esther and Raquel used to make little cardboard dolls themselves as children). It didn't occur to Raquel initially that the idea of Carddies could have such wide appeal...
So perhaps one tip is that simply being a mum can give you ideas of how to make life with children a bit more fun/creative, and that children are the best guides of what will work well as a product.
Carddies Family Two
Another Carddies family set which is perfect for role play…children can personalise Carddies Family Two to reflect their own families-real or imaginary…There are children who could either be siblings or cousins (including two babies!), a cat and dog, parents and grandparents,(which makes it a great set to share with the older generation)
