- Song of the Stars.

On one quiet night, creation whispered a secret. Grass and bees, robins and trees all spread the word. Sheep told their young while angels sang the song to the shepherds. Hushed news of a miracle echoed to the ends of the earth. The moment had come. The long-awaited child had arrived! Creation cried out in celebration, but only a few people heard. Only a few joined nature’s chorus, a song in praise of the newborn King.

While visiting lili et nene’s lovely shop the other day, I saw some toys from Vilac and Djeco I like. I’ve always had a love for toys that help develop a sense of  imagination and creativity, toys that nurture little minds and give hours of fun. Toys that make good keepsakes or to be shared with others.
