ODDS AND ENDS Text by ELIZABETH BENTLEY

GLOBE-A-RAMAJennifer Talbot has a growing reputation for

creating cool installations for kids’ rooms. Here,

she’s custom-designed a 3D felt globe with

Velcro-ed moveable animals, landmarks and

cultural symbols. It includes a tree from the

Redwood Forest, China’s rice fields as well as

a raft of symbols referencing favourite sports

teams and places the clients one day hope to

visit with their children.

Talbot says she can make interactive maps or

globes to order. “Places where dinosaurs lived,

landmarks of a home state — whatever. The

possibilities are endless!”

FAVE SOUVENIR One of the great things about travel is remembering all the fun things you saw, heard and did. This terrific journal lets kids plan a trip, take notes on the way, play games and learn about capitals, explorers, adventurers, foreign currencies and more. With bright illustrations inspired by the book, My Granny Went to Market — A Round-the-World Counting Rhyme, this could be the most cherished memento from your next holiday.

My Travel Journal, Mudpuppy, CA$10.99, raspberrykids.com

Just because you need to travel

light, doesn’t mean you have to

abandon style. Fiona Scanlan’s

exciting new season collection for

girls aged between 2 and 8 can

furnish you with almost everything

you need to help your daughter

dress like a local — wherever you

go. Check out our fashion story
