Hi,

I have made a lovely treasure basket for my nephew for Christmas, but my sister-in-law is a little antsy about the 'recommended' ages on toys and resources and follows every single safety reccomendation ever made about food and clothes and temperatures etc etc and I'm worried she's going to freak out about the idea of her son playing with household items!

I thought I could print some information to go with it so she understands it more and wondered if you lovely resourceful people have any links to share that will help me?!

Thanks, Jen x

Hi Miffy,
He'll be 10 months at Christmas time - they live in Canada and are over for Christmas, otherwise I'd have given it to him sooner! the links you and flowerpots found are really useful - I want to convey why the treasure basket is so great and try to get her to sit back and not be over involved with it, and my brain can't string a sensible sentence together at the moment!

Thanks, Jen x

Aaawww 10 months, I bet you can't wait to see them all.

Good luck with the leaflet, I'm sure you'll pitch it just right.

What a lovely idea and I think you are right to put in a professional looking leaflet too.
