    Not having any kids or maternal yearnings, I rarely have a reason to shop at baby and toddler…read moreoutlets. If I did though, I'd probably spend quite a lot of time in Yummies. The board outside invites you to 'Follow the trail of magic and sparkle' an the staff seem to genuinely like children. Always a bonus, I know! Aimed at babies, toddlers, pre-school and youngsters, they sell dolls, wooden toys, building blocks, mobiles and blankets as well as cute and colourful baby grows, trousers, tees, jumpers and winter warmers. Wait! Did I just say 'cute and colourful' in reference to kids! Damn. Maybe that clock has just started ticking...

    I think Yummies is a great name for a baby-themed shop. It did, indeed offer an assortment of…read morenon-edible yummies...Things I'll be picking up before Christmas to send to my little nephew in Canada. Baby clothing and many of the toys were made from 100% organic fabrics - wool, cotton and even bamboo. Yummies also sells washable nappies and staff are willing to answer questions regarding use and care. Décor for baby rooms included various trinkets (wooden ones were usually bamboo) and unique, multi-coloured mobiles. Other unique gift ideas included children's world music CDs and personalised lullaby CDs. For parents who've chosen a less popular baby name, these can be ordered from Yummies staff. However, by the end of the afternoon's perusal, I was leaning toward some knit booties and matching trousers - made from natural, organic cotton, of course.

    You know when you see those kids that are casually but precisely dressed like in an advertising…read morecampaign? Well, I'm guessing their parents shop at Toby Tiger. A tiny store in the heart of the North Laines, it sells a breath-taking selection of beautiful, brightly coloured romper suits, pyjamas, skirt, dresses, trousers, tees, hats, mittens, wellies and blankets. Some of them are in tasteful stripes and spots that would compliment Cath Kidston homeware, others are in simple rainbow shades of blue, pink, yellow, green, etc. They also have a selection of tasteful printed garments with dinosaurs, robots, pink apples and embroidered slogans like Drama Queen and Cheeky Monkey. To buy one or two items would set you back £15 to £50. To buy a whole wardrobe that would make your kids look like they're young, hip and advertising-worthy? You might need to remortage.

    A friend of mine used to work in here, so despite having absolutely no need for anything that they…read moresell, I used to pop in and out quite a lot and just couldn't help myself from nosing around and ooh-ing and aah-ing over all the little clothes and toys As far as babies and kiddies' shops go, this one is a little bit more special than most. Rather than the cheap, plasticky tat that a lot of toy shops sell for kids, most of the toys sold here are wooden, painted in lovely bright colours and seem to be really good quality. Their 'Charlie and Lola' stuff is very cute too especially the t-shirts with funny little slogans. Because the stuff is good quality, branded, or both, expect to pay a bit more for it. But unlike some of the toys out there, these aren't going to break in five minutes flat. The classic wooden designs also mean that they're unlikely to go out of fashion. Because, y'know, there are so many fashion-conscious toddlers about nowadays...
