One of your closest friends baby’s party is fast approaching… and your running out of time... You’re wondering, am I even going to get this gift in time? You know very well that she’s a lady of her environment. She loves design, from fashion to interiors, to the products that feature in her home. She follows trends and is conscious of keeping up to date. She cares for quality and would rather invest a little bit more in things that will last. It’s safe to say, you’re bordering on stress levels that are a little bit higher than usual.……and help is definitely much needed…..

1. A GIFT THAT SPARKS IMAGINATION, THAT IS BUILT TO LAST Imagination is pure magic - After a long day at work, imagine coming home to your little human who’s invites you into their world. In this imaginary world, there’s no stress, just best friends, beds made of cotton candy, a boat that looks like an eggplant. Odd, we know but doesn’t it put a smile on your face? Imagine them taking you through this world and imagine the weight of the real world melt away. What if you could give a gift that can literally inspire magic and create wonder? A nook to allow kids the space to foster their imagination, their highest form of creativity, and the most fun they can have in their own minds. Introducing the Teepee of Imagination - It’s the perfect gift for your little dreamer or for the aspiring stylist. It is the perfect addition to a child’s room, where you can put your own magic touch to it with garlands, lights, pillows and toys.

Some important elements to consider when deciding on your gift:
WHAT I S MY BUDGE T? I S IT GOOD QUALIT Y AND BUI LT TO L AST? DO I NEED TO GIF T WRAP IT? H O W M U C H T I M E D O I H AV E T O B U Y I T ? I S IT AN ENGAGING UNIQUE GIF T?
TOP TIP
Need some ideas on styling and Teepee accessories? Pinterest has a great selection of resources to look at. Some other gift ideas that inspire imagination are a cubby house or ball pit. Both are perfect for releasing the inner child!
IMAGINATION – IT IS THE SPARK THAT STARTS IT ALL. IT’S WHAT TURNS A BOX INTO A RACE CAR, A CLOTH INTO A CAPE OR A LAUNDRY BASKET INTO AN IMPENETRABLE PRINCESS CASTLE! IT’S ALSO WHAT SPARKED THE THOUGHT IN FAMOUS CREATORS, A SIMPLE “WHAT IF?”, A HOPE FOR THE FUTURE AND A BELIEF THAT YOU CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN.
Cattywampus Teepees come in a luxe packaging ready for gifting.

2. A PERSONALISED GIFT Us humans love to feel special… We love that connection we feel with our loved ones and the feeling of getting something that little extra special. How about something personalised that will really knock their socks off as well as their child to enjoy for years to come?
One of our favourite gift ideas, something that also sparks imagination is a personalised book that they can hold on to. Or even some beautiful towels that you can embroid their name on. Or How about a backpack with their name embroid that they can use for day-care?
