Today, Spillingthebeans is 3 years old! The past year has been a blur, but we’ve got a lot to show for it. Two new stores, one new kid and somewhat less posting than usual because of it all. Sigh.
As is now traditional, we do a great giveaway to mark the Blogiversary. Today, we spent part of our day with our good friend, Geir Stokke, head of Stokke USA. We had a great meeting and a great lunch, and so in his honor, and in honor of his favorite product in the universe, we are giving away a Stokke Tripp Trapp chair. You can choose any color you like, or you can create your own combination (as seen here). Stokke will also throw in one of the new Table Top trays! To enter, simply comment on this post. We will draw a winner one week from today.
And yes, we did eat cake.








Congratulations on the big day!

Congratulations on your anniversary. I’m thrilled to have found Magic Beans and am enjoying the blog, the Hingham store and the wonderful people of Magic Beans. Thanks for all your hard work! Would love a Tripp Trapp for the gandbabies!
Happy Blogiversary! We love your stores, especially enjoying the new Wellesley store. We will be making a visit in the coming week for the candy buy back program – my kids are happy to trade in candy for a toy (well discount coupon for a toy). Love that! We always get such great products and advise from your stores. I haven’t been following your blog all along, but I am a fan on Facebook. You guys are great! My 5 year old sits in a Stokke Kinderzeat. We would love a Trip Trap for our 1 year old!
congrats – and crossing our fingers for the tripp trapp.
