Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I've never bought materials made for the purpose but my daughters love to play with the remnants I've picked up cheap from a fabric store for cloaks, as a wrap around skirt or dress, or what ever their imagination comes up with!

Their favorite piece is a translucent but fairly heavy piece of   glittery purple stuff.

Thanks for the link to this site. Do you own any of their building toys? The Dadu cubes and Twig building systems look amazing!

I'm not Cindy Mac...but we have 2 sets of Dado cubes that were gifted to us. The boys in particular enjoy building and arranging them! They're really quite neat. I don't have the Twigs though.

Thanks Jennifer! I think I might purchase the Dido cubes for ds for Christmas. They just look like so much fun.

I posted a new thread in hopes everyone would see it but I wanted to post here as well.

There is a coupon code for the company A Toy Garden valid until November 15 that gives 10% off an order of $50 or more.

The coupon code is: thankful1009

Hope this helps someone. I hope to be placing an order.

Thanks for the coupon code! I placed an order. Their "forest boy" doll looks just like Frodo Baggins, although I can't vouch for the hairy feet!

I LOVE A Toy Garden! They have great customer service, the packaging is good and I receive my package quickly.

I will be making more purchases with them soon.
