Hello!

thanx

Hi, I don't think that this is a Kenyan sort of thing - there is so much for children to do outdoors plus good climate, there is unlikely to be any market for them.

You could take the photos to a carpenter and have something made at fairly reasonable cost.

Longonot62, thank you for your advice!
But I don't think, that there is much to do outside. We rent an apartment, and we couldn't find a compound with any children faciclities outside. We are lucky to have green areas and a sandpit. And we can't just buy and put any outside, because it is a compound. So I dicided to put one inside. We used to have a bigger one in Moscow and children loved to do sports on it.

Actually children spend most of the day at school, so they don't really need that. But my son is two and a half and he is staying with me.

Thanx!
Elena

Hi Elena, you can have this done by a local carpenter. Just give them a picture. I could refer you to Kennedy 0721394811 who made me an outdoor play equipment consisting of a slide, bridge and swing.

You can find some of these things in different toy shop. Check tou Toy Cente in town,at Agha Khan walk and other baby shops along Biashara street. Are you coming for the get-together dinner at Westgate on Sunday the 11th from 6:00pm?Come meet other expatriates to share with you their experience. You can call 0729 079 046 for directions.

Hi.I think the best thing since they are not really available locally is t ship from one of the IKEA shops in Europe.It might cost alot but you will at least be sure it is what you want your child to enjoy.Youcan be sure to find someone to buy that after you are done with it
