Kids Design Award

The Kids Design Award 2008 was back for a second year, helping to promote creative, aesthetic and safe design for kids. The winners were announced, but these are my favorites.


The “fun fan table manners set” creates a fun atmosphere for kids while establishing a subtle guide to table manners. The pieces are made out of bamboo, an eco-conscious choice to preserve our trees and forests. You can purchase one in Japan from Isetan Department Store (about 20,000 yen) or order one directly through the company.
