Paddington Station

How would you like to win a prize from our favourite store ever? 

Paddington Station is the sweetest toy store east of Montreal and it's where we do all of our Christmas shopping. The girls will have brand new outfits to wear on Christmas Day sitting under the tree and a few special toys, too. We visit every Sunday, religiously and while the girls (and Oakley) play in the play area, I shop to my heart's content. 


Clare, the kind owner, would like to offer you a chance to win this take along dollhouse. Wanna know a secret? Clare sent me home with the prize so I could reward one of you lovely people and Kate went absolutely bananas for it. Try as I might, I could not get her to stop perseverating on this prize. So, in typical 'mom of the year' fashion I gave in to her tantrum/meltdown and awarded her the house Clare gave me with strict instructions to my husband to go directly to Paddington Station on Monday morning and buy another. If you're wondering why I gave in, I can give you reasons like exhaustion or guilt but the truth is I wanted to play with it, too. Did I just teach Kate that if she screams long enough I will give in to her demands? Yes, yes I did. You just let me deal with that. 

For now we are playing on the living room carpet with our new take along dollhouse and I've just realized this little beauty can go right in the car with us and entertain Miss Kate wherever we go. Maybe Kate was right, maybe she did "NEED DIS!". 

Paddington Station has far more to offer than I can feature here, so stop in and tell them Kate sent you. If you're lucky maybe she'll ring your purchase in someday because they often let her behind the counter to ring in ours.

Back to the business at hand. If you'd like to win a playhouse just like Kate's please 'Like' Paddington Station on Facebook to be entered. We'll add your name to the draw and the winner will be drawn Tuesday December 9, 2014. Good Luck!

How perfect are these for pretend play? I am going to need these for my classroom.

There are no other mittens that can even come close to these. No more snow up their sleeve making them cold. These mitts are genius and only sold at Paddington Station as far as I can tell. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ How sweet is that little doll all done up in her outfit from Paddington Station?

I told you we love to spend time here.
