Every kid should have a tricycle, shouldn’t they? Especially if its one as handsome as this Radio Flyer Tricycle.
Classically styled, this retro lovely is made of durable steel and, according to the sellers, is bound to outlast the lucky kid who gets to ride it. Your little’un will be the coolest kid on the block with these wheels, so its lucky it comes with a step to give his or her mates a lift!
From Colloco, this is available to buy in the UK from Not On the High Street at £89.95.
Worth it for the brand name alone, the Dumpling Dynasty Shoe Shine Kit is a cute but practical little gift set. It is part of a series of Dumpling Dynasty sets that are probably aimed at children, but this one is good enough for grown-ups.
Inside the decorative tin, you’ll find everything you need to keep your footwear in top condition – two polishes (one neutral, one black), two brushes and two cloths (one for each type of polish) and a shoe horn.
It costs £14.99 from Strawberry Fool.
If you’re looking for something a little cooler for your kids than Action Man or Barbie sweatshirts, then Stardust Kids have the perfect answer. With baby and kids clothes from punk tops to rockabilly style dresses, your kid might just end up being the coolest on the block.
This fantastic bowling shirt is every bit the faithful retro reproduction of 50s American style… but for little’uns. As with much of their stock, this shirt is unisex.
It’s a bargain, too, at £15. If only looking cool was this easy as an adult.

Classic children’s toys and furniture are undeniably more stylish than their modern counterparts. If you’re decking out a nursery or looking for a stylish gift for some new parents then a retro styled hanging mobile might just be perfect.
This stunning Aeromobile from the Hanging Mobile Gallery is a classic design, reminiscent of pre-war children’s toys.
The mobile by Flensted costs £35, not bad for a little piece of art.
Another item printed with pictures of retro vehicles! This time, it is the “Old Cars” T-shirt from French catalogue La Redoute.
It is being sold in their Boy 2-12 range, although I don’t see any reason why a little girl couldn’t wear it too! The printed t-shirt comes in a pack with a plain vest style top, both for a bargain price of between £5 and £6 depending on the size.
Visit the La Redoute website to order.
The Knoppa Baby Cradle is an ingenious idea for parents who want to keep their baby close by.
The cradle is suspended on a pulley system, allowing it be hung over the parent’s bed. A small push on the crib will create a gentle rocking motion which is soothing to the baby too. It can be folded flat to use as a travel cot too.
On top of all this, it is decorated with a stylish retro floral print in either brown or red, so you don’t need to compromise on style!
It costs £135 and can be bought online from Funktion Alley.
