My Small World gets Bigger!


Its all very exciting!!! On 30th October we opened our doors on our newest store. Its in the stunning Southgate Shopping Centre in Bath!! We are in the cutest bit - a covered arcade called Little Southgate which runs between Boots and Debenhams. We love it - and we know you will too!

We love the fact that there is so much more room for buggies and playing. We've installed a very low display table so that even our shortest visitors can properly get their hands on the toys. And at last we've got a dedicated book corner...a big thrill, because you know how mad we are about our books!!! We (and countless pregnant and breastfeeding Mums) are looking forward to the soon-to-arrive armchair, and everyone is mad about our stunning Stevenson Rocking Horse - as yet unnamed, but we are running a competition in store to come up with the perfect title! (Even Mums can ride it...!!!)

The reactions we've had have been amazing, and we owe a lot of people big kisses and hugs for being My Small World Heroes - from suppliers who pulled out all the stops to get us our beautiful toys in time, to our amazing team here at My Small World who worked their little socks off...(Big Heroes include Martin from Haba, who called in favours from across Europe to get us our delivery in time, and then drove down from the North with his beautiful wife Julie to deliver our amazing display unit; they even stayed 'til Midnight to unpack and price the delivery. And brought wine!

We can't wait for you to come and visit...as always, its a work in progress, and how you feel about what we do has a big impact on us. We want to make the new store as beautiful, intimate, quirky and funky as our original, just with more space to play...

lots of love

Dawn and the My Small World Team!
