And the dish ran away with the spoon...

Whilst I was at my sister's for Easter she got out her Bunnykins cup from when she was little for LT to use and it got me thinking about children's crockery.

I want to get LT something that he can use every day but also treasure in years to come. I think he is old enough now to have a special porcelain set.
But, oh my god there is a lot of tat out there. Lots of pink for girls, blue for boys, Disney princess', slapdash illustrations and just plain boring.

Until I found Djeco do a range - available from tickety boo in the UK

These are my favourites.

Chicken Wings Collection



Gingerbread Collection





I toyed with the idea of classic sets like the kind of thing I had when I was a kid but they just don't compare with the bright colours and fun illustrations from Djeco.
