Educational

CHRISTCHURCH: Science Alive in Christchurch is a not-for-profit trust, dedicated to educating the public about science and technology. After the quakes we lost our Science Centre (rebuilding in 2018!) but we still provide lots of fantastic hireable resources, birthday party entertainment (we come to you!), Preschool Science Shows (at ECE venues) and an online Science Shop! Go to www.sciencealive.co.nz for more info!

Lovingly handcrafted by families with young children, Two Green Monkeys range of children’s eco-friendly art supplies are unique. They are all safe, non-toxic and made from natural ingredients. The Two Green Monkeys range includes paints, face paints, finger paints, crayons, chalks and dough which are super safe for young children and for our environment.

Kilmarnock Toys has a simple philosophy; Children’s toys should be fun, they should stimulate the senses of young minds, be made lovingly to last and be NEW ZEALAND made with absolutely no plastic in sight! Our toys are made locally by an amazing team of people with intellectual disabilities who are learning the skills needed to reach their full potential.

At BopAlongBuddies NZ we sell Inflatable Bouncing Animals for kids!
