Unleash Their Imagination With Playsilks
The simple things in life are always the best. Ever given a child a cardboard box and watched them turn it into a pirate ship or aeroplane or choo-choo train?
It’s from this idea that simple toys encourage creative play that Lara Symonds developed Playsilks - squares of colouful, hand dyed shimmery silk that kids can go nuts with. Their use really is only limited by one’s imagination!

But, in case you need some help getting started, Lara regularly posts ideas on her website. Superhero cape? Fairy skirt? Picnic rug? Wrapping paper? Volcano?
Personally I think the headscarf or belt idea could be adopted by fashion-forward Mummies too!
Playsilks can be purchased online for $15 a pop, or $75 for a set of 7 in each colour. Shipping is currently within Australia only.
