Therm
Children's Wet Weather Gear
Code: BAREFOOT10
We have used Therm products for a number of years and I have never once been disappointed with the quality of the product or the values of the brand.
Therm is a New Zealand owned company founded & designed by mum of 2 - Stacey Thompson. ​I share the same beliefs with Therm that the best play time is time spent outdoors. However, sometimes the weather doesn't always allow you to race on out and get into it. Therm is here to remove that barrier. The ethos of Therm is warmth. Designing products to remain warm and dry to protect against all elements.
My favourite products listed below:
​
-
The SplashMagic Rainsuit -
Indie wears a size 6 with plenty of room to grow. Her favourite feature is definitely the patterns that appear when the suit gets wet (which is always great motivation to get outside in the rain!).​

All-Weather Fleece Overalls
​
​
I loved these overalls for Indie over Autumn & Spring. I found them really great for everyday wear, popping down to the playground when the slides are still all wet from the night before, or heading out on a bike ride and having an extra layer of warmth on. Indie would just wear a thermal underneath and was warm enough.

All-Weather Fleece Onesie
​
​
The onesie is perfect for little ones! These come in sizes 6-12 months, 12-18 months, 2 years, & 3 years. A few features i love about this product are the fold over cuffs at hands and feet, rubberised coating at knees and seat for added durability, and 2-way zipper for easy changing! I recommend these to anyone with young babies - toddlers.

Coastwood Furniture
NZ Made Furniture
As Indie has grown older, she has wanted to spend more of her time chilling out in her room. Whether she's listening to an audiobook in bed, playing with her dolls, building magnetic tiles or crafting, sometimes it's easier for her to shut her door to get some alone time from her little brother! There was just a few barriers in the way... one being Indie has the smallest bedroom in the house (sorry Indie!), and another being that her bedroom has no built in storage?! Storing toys, handing her schoolbag, and having a big enough floor space to enjoy playing had been a struggle. A loft bed is what we needed. We came across Coastwood Furniture and instantly fell in love with the Peri Loft Bed.
​
The Peri Loft Bed comes in both single and king single sizes, with a range of colors to match any decor style. Indie has the single size in light rimu.
​
By lifting the bed frame, it has created a versatile area that can be customised to suit Indie's age and current need for the space. From a bear cave to a practical study space, the possibilities are endless.
The Peri Loft Bed is built to last made from sustainably sourced NZ Pine, with a 10-year quality guarantee, this stunning bed will be with us many years to come. It's simple design meant it was easily assembled with help of clear instructions.
​
The Peri Loft Bed isn't just a piece of furniture—it's a game-changer for small spaces and a canvas for creativity. It has really turned a space which was once just a room Indie slept, now to a space she enjoys to play/relax in during the day too.
​
These pieces are made to order with a 5-7 week delivery time.

Wishbone Design
Our Experience with the Wishbone Original 3-in-1 Balance Bike
​
We love the Wishbone Bike for its great design and functionality. It’s a true 3-in-1 balance bike that changes from a tricycle to a two-wheeler, and finally to a runner bike as our wee boy, Koa, grows. It’s amazing that this one bike will be with him till he is five years old.
​
This bike is lightweight yet very sturdy. Koa can easily move it around, which has made him more independent when on his bike. He has always been a very boisterous rough-and-tumble kind of child right from a baby, so we needed something to keep up with him!
​
The adjustable frame has been a big help. We started with it in tricycle mode, then adjusted it to a two wheeler, but he wasn't quite ready (he could no longer go zooming down hills!!) so we changed it back to tricycle frame. It was a 5 minute job which is very handy because i have a feeling we will be changing it back and forth a lot haha!
​
The Wishbone Bike comes in four cool colours - natural, blue (the one we have), Pangolin (which is a blue frame with a printed pattern and red spots on the inside of the frame), and a cream frame with black penguin designs.
​
Overall, the Wishbone Original 3-in-1 Balance Bike has been great for our wild child. Seeing Koa’s excitement every time he rides it and watching his skills grow has been great. If you’re thinking about getting a balance bike for your little one, I highly recommend the Wishbone Bike 3-in-1. It’s more than just a bike...it’s a tool for learning, growth, and lots of fun!
