Afternoon All,

I'm after a bit of advise / help.
The Gf took the little chap (6 months old) to a baby group earlier on & she keeps going on about these toys they have there - bubble tubes (kind of like laval lamps)
& this wooden toy that i can only describe as a wooden mug stand with holes drilled in it for key rings & bells.
Now the little chap absolutely loves this (more so than his V-Tech or Fisher Price stuff).
I've done some googling & it seems it's all fairly specialised stuff for generally abbies & children with special needs.
Now he does'nt have any special needs but i think £500 for a bubble tube is a bit excessive: http://www.totalsensory.co.uk/bubbletubes.html
He's only going to use them for a matter of weeks / months so i was going to make a sort of home-made version of the wooden ones & the bubble lamp i'm going to see if i can source a LED one from somewhere so it does'nt get too hot!
Does anyone know of some more reaosnably priced places?
