With three kids, I’ve got to have toys up my sleeve any time we head out or risk the consequences–or better, bring along a fabulous Discovery Tote from Helicopter Studios.

Artist and mom Shannon Duffy originally created these imagination inspiring totes for her own kids and then decided to share them with others – hooray for that! She hand stitches different play scenes like a forest (pictured at top) or beach on wool felt, and includes pieces that kids can move around. It all folds up flat in a handy self-contained tote made with beautiful vintage fabrics.

Peruse her shop to get a full sense of her handmade offerings including her popular campfire tote, which comes complete with marshmallows and felt flames. No batteries required. -Kristen

Discovery Totes available at Helicopter Studios.

Congratulations to lucky Discovery Tote winner, Amy H!
