Curated by a Mother of Five
I believe that what touches our children's skin should be as pure as the adventures they take. Growing up in Norway, natural materials were a way of life.
Now in Ottawa, I’ve handselected Disana and Lillelam. The brands I trust for my own children. To help your family embrace the beauty of organic, heirloom wool.

The Adventures of Little Mino: Little Mino's Promise
A Heartwarming Journey of Kindness, Warmth, and Nature’s Magic.
Give your child the gift of a story that warms the heart and protects the Earth.
On a hill coloured like emeralds, where the breeze smells like clover, lives a very special Merino sheep named Mino. With a coat as soft as a captured cloud and a heart even bigger than his bouncy wool, Mino has one big dream: to share his warmth with the whole world.
When a shivering family arrives on his hillside, Mino sees a chance to make his dream come true. Through the kindness of a special sheep and the craft of a loving family, a beautiful promise is born.
A promise of clothes that are safe for children and gentle on our planet.
