We have to admit: When it comes to chic and timeless fashion, it´s the French who win the battle.

Gosh, it´s not so easy: Your best friend´s daughter is turning four and you don´t know what to give as a present.  A Barbie doll? She already has ten! A cuddly toy? There is no space left for one in the bed.

It´s hard to know what to do: We recommend Heike Makatsch and Der Hund Marie alias Max Schröder, Makatsch´s husband and father of her two children. The actress and the musician recorded it 2009 and it combines the most beautiful songs for children.  ‘Der Kuckuck und der Esel’, ‘Wenn ich ein Vöglein wär…’ and ‘Der Mond ist aufgegangen’. Furthermore there are drawings from Tomi Ungerer and all lyrics.

Children and parents will both like this music and we love it: A really successfull family-project and a wonderful gift for children.

It´s well proved that in May most couples get married. Nearly once a month one of your friends is saying “Yes” and of course this is wonderful, but it´s also stress (you would never say this in public, but if we are already talking about that..). The reason is simple: It´s not easy to find the perfect outfit and it´s even more difficult when the daughters are growing up and want to have fancy dresses (“Mom, I am not five any more!”)

“This is so cute!!!!” It was love at first sight when we saw these pretty shoes from the Italian brand “Sonatina”. Hand-sewn, made out of leather, they fit perfect on childrens feet. Some people claim that Italians are not able to vote – might be true, but they are definitely able to make fashion. The shoes are awesome: With flowerprints and  small bows made out of tulle for the young ladies and dandy-like shoes for the young gentlemen.

Of course the kids  grew up so fast and soon they can´t wear these cute shoes anymore, but doesn´t any mom keep the first shoes of her baby in the wardrobe? As a memory of the good old times when her child used to be a sweet little angle and not the pubescent little devil it is today.
