Vintage Books

Books have always been a mainstay in both of our homes and our kids loved books from an early age. When it comes to choosing books for the store we are often reminded of our favourites from when the kids were young. But with the re-releases of vintage classics, we sometimes remember favourites from when we were kids! It is so much fun to hear a customer pick up a book and exclaim, "I remember this book. I loved it as a kid!".

Starting with This is Paris published in 1958, the books Miroslav Sasek wrote painted a delightful picture of some of the world's great cities. Having delighted children and adults for more than 50 years they have now being reissued.

This is London

This is London is the second This Is book and undoubtedly one of the best. Sasek concentrates on the things he likes best: people, costume, transport and local details that somehow come together to form a whole impression of the city that still seems quite accurate today.

Bloombaby High Chairs

Well, it has happened again.

Red Chair Kids just added another gorgeous new line: the Bloombaby High Chair! We have been debating about this for years, but so many people have asked us to carry it, we decided it needed to find a home in Ottawa. It "checks all the boxes for us" in our favourite categories: great design and fabulous function. As Sarah always says, "I would have bought this for Brianna!".

It is the only modern high chair that works from newborn to toddlerhood. It is a 3-in-1 resting, feeding and play chair. The chair begins as a "nest" with the seat in a horizontal position for newborns to 6 month olds. It then becomes a feeding chair with up-to-the table or traditional tray modes. Finally, the tray can be removed and it can be used at various heights for children 3 years + and up to 79 pounds.

There are two versions; the Fresco and the Fresco Loft. The latter allows you to put baby in command at breakfast bar or counter top with an extra 6 inches in height.
