Hello everyone 馃憢
It鈥檚 been another heck of a year with us not being able to travel. We鈥檝e been stuck not only in Australia but what feels like being confined to only our home as we鈥檝e also been working from home.
As we couldn鈥檛 travel, we鈥檝e relied a lot on online shopping. Since having a baby, we weren鈥檛 able to buy the really cute things that are available overseas. Don鈥檛 get me wrong, Australia has a lot of great designers and items to offer to kids but our taste lies in things from Asia.
We came across a website called The Wee Bean while looking for clothing with different prints for our little one. The Wee Bean is a store from Hong Kong that sells clothing, toys, bedding and more for babies. They鈥檙e a small business started by a couple who have children of their own and they have a passion to provide other children with quality, organic goods that won鈥檛 hurt them (such as skin) and the environment.
I went ahead to buy a few items to try. Months later, hubby came across the website and decided to also buy a few things too. Being foodies, we had to get some food related stuff for the little one. Let鈥檚 see what we鈥檝e bought for our little one.
Egg tart and lemon tea are like one of the signature food items from Hong Kong. The other one is the white rabbit candy which is a childhood memory of ours. These are the milky candies our parents would give us.
Those who know us would know that we are boba obsessed and would call it a drought and possibly feel some sort of withdrawal symptom if we weren鈥檛 able to have one during the week 馃槀.
Hubby鈥檚 favourite snack when we visit Hong Kong is eggette so I got this to remind him of his beloved snack. Makes him hungry too. I also bought a boba bib however it鈥檚 in the wash so I couldn鈥檛 take a picture of it.
They鈥檝e got so many more designs and recently came out with their Japan series too. I鈥檓 tempted to buy more as they鈥檙e currently on sale. The bibs are quite thick, absorbent and the quality is great. The clothes haven鈥檛 been worn yet as our weather hasn鈥檛 allowed for short sleeves at the moment. We can鈥檛 wait to try them though!

Price wise, it鈥檚 more expensive if we were to compare to buying a piece of clothing like this at a local store. I guess we are paying for the cute designs which can鈥檛 be found in our country, right? These also come as great gifts if you鈥檙e looking for something different from the typical animal, vehicle, rainbow etc type of design.
