ISO Puzzles and Toy Cooking Implements

I am looking for used wooden or cardboard puzzles for 2-4-year-olds - we've moved beyond the pegged kind into jigsaw-land, but only just barely. I don't mind if they're ugly, battered or missing a piece or two. I also need a few small pots or pans for cooking the vast numbers of pretend meals I seem to be eating lately. I can't afford to spend a lot, and I prefer to pick them up in close-in NE or downtown.  Please email me at ostling32 at gmail dot com. Thanks very much!

ISO Fabric Boy Doll

Jane ( graysquirrel75@yahoo.com ) is looking for a fabric boy doll for her son:

Do you have one your child is not that into?  I would love to buy it from you.  I am hoping to find a Waldorf style doll that is not too expensive.  Here is a link to a Nova Natural doll that I am looking at.

I am looking for play baby-doll highchairs and any wooden doll house furniture. I have two little girls who are just now old enough to really enjoy these kind of things.

Thank-you for contacting me if you have these kinds things to get rid of.
