Small Business Saturday is here as well as our fourth small business Advent who some of you may have seen in our Winter issue. Meet @helloeswyn, designed by Amy, quality controlled by Ivy. These zero plastic, biodegradable dummies currently come in two skin tones, with more on the way. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
So if you're struggling with settling a little one why not give this a go. Whatever works, right?⁠⁠
If you're a small business, or a small business champion, tag someone below who you think should be featured on Small Business Saturday. Let’s celebrate!

On the third day of Christmas, we bring you @naturenurturekids. These guys make eco-friendly kits for kids to help nature, from mini kits to complete rucksacks; everything a child needs to nurture the earth, including caring for bees and litter picking. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Founder, Alice, was inspired to create the nature kits when she couldn't find what her daughter Kaya was asking for. After much testing, the kits are now available for everyone!⁠⁠

It's day 2 of our small business advent and today

It's day 2 of our small business advent and today we're featuring @cotton.twist. Eco-friendly craft kits for children, made just a stone's throw from City Kids HQ. Anne-Clare set the business up in 2015 after the birth of her third child. Like all of us, she tired of the plastic tat in party bags, so armed with incredible energy and imagination, Cotton Twist was born. On the site you'll find crafts perfect for party bags, stocking fillers and rainy days, all designed to spark learning and play. And no plastic in sight.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Who shall we feature tomorrow? Let us know below who you think deserves a mention. ⬇️⁠⁠
