hi, not quite sure where to post this, but has anyone ever heard of a toy called Grandma's Bag - or something similar? A bag which a toddler can rummage through which contains a purse, glasses, hankie etc etc. My nearly 12 month dd would love something similar for her birthday (although I'm sure she'll still turn mine out five times a day), but I've googled and no luck... help? xx

I don't want to be facetious, but surely you could assemble one yourself for much less effort and cost?

dd is besotted with car keys, any car keys, and rather than fobbing her off with a crappy plastic toy imitation I bought an uncut 'blank' from a keycutters and put it on a 99p LED keyring torch (which is oval and feels like a remote central locking fob)

she thinks it's the best thing since sliced bread and has stopped bugging us for ours

I bought my mum a book called this as a present from DS. here

They both love it.

there's also this version. They used to sell these in Borders.

thank you, yes you are right, i could assemble it myself, but I was quite interested to see what it contained without having to engage my own brain! and I shall be buying her a key fob - genius idea! also, thank you for the link to the book - it looks fabulous and we will be purchasing!

am rofling at the contents of 'my mummy's bag' though

surely in real life it would have baby wipes instead of 'flowers' and 'spare pants in case if accidents' instead of spare shoes...

and who carries a laptop when a BlackBerry will do?
