As online baby shops go, I’ve found Bump & Me to have a wide selection of great items for babies and kids with sustainability and education in mind. I’ve spent the better part of the last 4 months looking for items we need solely from online shops, due to the pandemic, in anticipation of the arrival of our baby girl. This is why I’ve decided to lend a hand and create this mama & baby gift guide.
Throughout my search, Malta Virtual Mall has helped me to discover the different sites available locally and in fact, I’ve done most of my shopping using their search function. Now that our little girl has arrived, I’m thankful that we were able to get everything that she needed online and avoid crowded stores and shopping areas.

Theses reusable nappies from TotsBots come in so many different colours and patterns, it almost makes it hard to pick! Their prices are reasonable and most can be used from birth up to potty training. The nappies are made with easy-to-use hook and loop fastenings, making then super easy to use. Extra boosters may also be added in for those super-wetters.

Ette Tete Mopitri Modifiable Pikler Triangle + Ramp
Price: €279
Climbing is a natural skill and an important milestone for healthy development. My decade or so working as an early years educator has taught me that this is more than just theoretical.
The Mopitri Modifiable Pikler Triangle is an incredible educational equipment that would be the perfect gift to be enjoyed by any child aged 12 months and above. The climbing frame is modifiable which means that it can be changed and adapted according to your child’s individual developmental needs.
The worth of the triangle is that it can be used and enjoyed for many years to come!
