Kenana Knitters' spider leopard toy
I found this knitted leopard in the gift shop attached to the British Museum's latest exhibition of sculptures from West Africa.
I wouldn't have usually plunked down £20 for a toy, but I like the idea of supporting this Kenya-based womens' fairtrade initative. I've got my eyes on their bundu snake toy....
Nearer to home, the Roman Road's Buddhist-run Evolution store has a lovely selection of baby goodies as well. I couldn't resist a plastic ball (£10) that when tapped flashes with rainbow colours - mesmerising...
Its Lama's Pajamas charity shop, with more baby clothes & toys, is a few doors up.
Did I mention the drop in meditation with creche on Wednesdays 10am-12noon at the Buddhist Center?
*Baby at six months
