There’s a Party in my City!

Friday, June 4th, 2010

Ok Kids and Parents get ready for one of the best kids shows out there – Yo Gabba Gabba! DJ Lance Rock and his cartoonish costumed characters (made by Kidrobot (http://www NULL.kidrobot NULL.com)) – Muno, Foofa, Brobee, Toodee and Plex. Musical numbers that will knock your socks off and will even get you dancing.

On April 31, 2008 the television show received a Daytime Emmy nomination for Outstanding Achievement in Costume Design/Styling. Although “Yo Gabba Gabba” was created as a show for young children, it has slowly become a sensation among college students and even some parents who are entertained by its retro/indie style, bright colours, simplicity, and entertaining music from many of the popular bands featured on the show.

There will be 4 shows at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre, September 11 & 12, 2010. Tickets go on sale tomorrow at TicketMaster (http://www NULL.ticketmaster NULL.ca/artist/1370489?tm_link=)!


Strider Bikes staff do some product testing! Fun!

Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

The Strider Bikes staff take a few ‘mildly modified’ Strider PREbike balance bikes running some of the downhill mountain bike trails on M Hill in Rapid City, SD. The video definitely shows how durable the frame is when a bunch of grown men can come down through this rough terrain and even land some jumps on the footrests. Enjoy the video…

ABC3D Pop-up Book Video

ABC3D Pop-up Book by Marion Bataille

Although the subject matter fits squarely in with the toddler set, the detail of the paper craft and the innovation of this pop-up book make it a great addition to any design collection or stack of books on the coffee table.

From the lenticular cover all the way through to Z, this book is a work of art. In a stark palette of black, white and red, the letters move and change before your eyes. C flips to become D, K kicks out its legs, a dash turns O and P into Q and R, the U is created with a delicate paper bridge and V mirrors itself to become W.

The ABC3D book is available in store now, and coming to our online store soon.

A Day In Vancouver (timelapse) Video

Tuesday, July 28th, 2009

This timelapse video from the past weekend (July 25th) has been making the rounds on the internet – and we though we’d share it one more time in case you missed it.

This KatKam.ca camera captures the scene across the Burrard Street Bridge every 5 minutes, and on this day the weather turned wild. Vancouver started with a beautiful sunny day, collapsing into a rain storm, then had one of the most majestic red sky sunsets ending just before the HSBC Fireworks finished off the night. Amazing.

It’s great to see how lucky we are to live where we do.
