Seedling Kids Store at Indulgence for Mother’s Day weekend
Mother’s Day weekend was all about the finer things in life for visitors to the inaugural Indulgence show at the Ellerslie Convention Centre in
The Kids Zone with Seedling was the destination for the smaller indulgers to come and make a card especially for their mum for Mother’s Day. Our tent looked incredible (if I may say so myself), filled with our Seedling colours making it easy to spot on a rather grey weekend.
We saw many children coming through and having a blast with our supplies of felt shapes, feathers, glitter glue, pens and pencils, making truly spectacular creations for their much loved mums.
Our guest face painter did and amazing job turning the young indulgers into fairies, tigers, lions, cheetahs, birds, butterflies, princesses, monsters, even Batman & Spiderman. Anything they wanted, they could become. Check them out:
Indulgence was definitely a fantastic place to take Mum for some Mother's Day pampering. Make sure you keep an eye out for it next year!

School Holidays at Sylvia Park
As the school holidays come to a close, so too does our time at Sylvia Park. We opened up our temporary store at one of Auckland’s biggest shopping centres on the first Saturday of the July school holidays and it’s certainly been an interesting two weeks.
One of the great things about Sylvia Park is that people come from all over the city to shop there so we’ve met a lot of people from all over the place! We’ve met a lot of people who hadn’t heard of Seedling before and were fascinated by the amazing kits. Many people have commented on what great gifts they’d make or how they’d love so many for themselves. There were also many people who had seen our kits before but had no idea the range was so big. A lot of them were very excited to see us.
Just as with the Seedling at Edukidz stores in Ponsonby and Botany, we offered activities as well. In week one we were doing ‘Paint your own t-shirt’. Kids loved having the freedom to use as many colours and brushes as they wanted and had an amazing variety of designs on show. There’s nothing quite like the artwork you’ll see when you let a child’s imagination run wild. We also had a few adults painting t-shirts – for themselves, for their kids, for their partners.
Week two came with the introduction of Tote Bags & Superhero Capes as well as T-shirts and they’ve been extremely popular. We’ve had a LOT of people doing the three activities this week as the awful Auckland weather pushed people indoors. Many little girls making personalized handbags, several different superheros, two little boys made tote bags for Grandma and a heap more t-shirts.
As we’re now at the end of the holidays, we’ll be leaving Sylvia Park on Sunday evening. We’ve enjoyed our time there and it was great to be out there meeting the people who the Seedling kits are made for.
Remember that Botany and Ponsonby are out there two for those of you in Auckland. They have the full range of Seedling products and offer a menu of activities 7 days a week.
Wherever you are, enjoy the weekend and the last couple of days of the school holidays!

Seedling's First Blog!
This week we’ve delved into online social networking sites, starting a Twitter Feed, a Facebook Profile and this blog. Look at us go! Tweeting is an entirely new concept that I’m still getting used to but it’s great fun coming into work in the morning and seeing who’s tweeted overnight and who has something interesting to say, not to mention the excitement of new followers every day. Our Facebook page took a little longer to set up with all the pictures to upload and getting used to the difference between a business page and a regular profile page but now it’s there and looking pretty good if I do say so myself.
We are launching our new baby seedling range now. This new range currently consists of five kits. ‘Create your own Designer Baby Tees’ for your own designer baby, ‘Knit your own Designer Baby Blanket’ a boy version and a girl version , ‘Create your own Baby Mobile’ and ‘Create a Monogram Painting for Baby’s Room’ (perfect for decorating baby’s room!). These kits are perfect for nesting mums and we’re excited about them.
This weekend Seedling is appearing at Magnolia Square in Melbourne (www.magnoliasquare.com.au). If you’re in Melbourne, it’s definitely worth a look. Magnolia Square is aptly described in their blog as retail heaven, and Tiny and Small is a “boutique market for little people”. Make sure you head along and check out the new additions!
That’s all for this week’s blog I guess. Make sure you check out our facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Auckland-New-Zealand/Seedling-NZ/) and follow our twitter feed (http://twitter.com/SeedlingNZ).
Have a great weekend!
