    Playmobil easter eggs – the mermaid, the pirate and the boy with a ball.

    I know it was only just Christmas, but it’s already coming up on Easter (the joys of movable festivals). If you’re looking for something a little more lasting (and a little less over packaged), I highly recommend Playmobil easter eggs instead of the traditional chocolate variety.
