New Age Paper Dolls

This is so deja vu. Remember how we used to play with paper dolls when we were little girls...I sure did. i remembered i would spend countless hours tracing out the outline of the paper dolls, and created new dresses for the dolls. ah.... the simple pleasures in life, which I am not too sure if Nicole will ever enjoy

Anyway, these Daisy Girls dolls comes close to it. There's like over

40 magnetic wooden clothing pieces to create a variety of colorful and fun ballet outfits for the 2 Daisy Girl ballerinas. The set comes in a convenient carrying case with colorful feather trim. Includes 2 magnetic wooden dolls, 42 magnetic clothing pieces, and vinyl carrying bag with feather trim.

All these for USD19.99. It was 10 cents for the paper cut out version which w could get from our regular mama store. Than again, those dolls weren't very lasting, weren't they?

Smencils! Smelly Pencils! Made From Recycled Newspaper!

Smencils! Smelly Pencils! Made From Recycled Newspaper!

Yes they're super-fun smelling pencils, but they're super green! These pencils are not made from wood - they're made from 100% recycled newspaper. Smencils sharpen the same as all other wood pencils and they smell way better. Sniff up a set of 10 Smencils in: Orange, Cherry, Bubble Gum, Peppermint, Fruit Punch, Watermelon, Grape, Pineapple, Root Beer, and Cinnamon. (You can even see the bits of newspaper as you sharpen them!)

Well, the price isn't exactly very friendly to the pockets. At USD$11.50, that's so much more than you are paying for for regular colour pencils. The dilemma: would you pay more for something that's eco-friendly, or pay for something that is a lot lesser but may not be that environmentally friendly?
