Skullcave by Our Children's Gorilla
First to recommend
2 people recommended this item
Description
With so many cutesy things for kids out there, one could get a toothache from all the sweetness. Peculiar and unusual are not adjectives typically used to describe baby toys and decor. But not Our Children's Gorilla. Just as it's name might lead you to believe, this Swedish company's designs border on the bizarre, but in a good way.
Looking at the products from Our Childrens Gorilla, makes us want to be a 5-years old again. Their line is innovative, original, fun, creative and simply functional. As a kids we remember building little huts out of card board boxes and sleeping in them for days! But whenever it would rain, they would be destroyed. And if we wanted to carry them to the park, it was a huge chore. Especially when the castle sized ones - it literally felt like were lugging a giant tractor!
We wished The Scullcave existed back then. It is the perfect solution! It’s lightweight, portable and most of all durable. So you can set this up anywhere you feel like crawling into a ball with your playmate, indoor or outdoor and you can do this over and over again. We wonder if they would ever make a larger adult size one?
