We might possibly be looking at another “snow day” tomorrow here in Houston, but I know some of you guys up north have barely had school this semester!
I thought it would be cute to do a “log cabin” round up of some of the really cute items they have for sale. From Little House Books to Lego’s, this is some of my favorite toys from when I was a kid, and things my kids enjoy now!

Little House in the Big Woods (Little House, No 1)
Laura Ingalls’s story begins in 1871 in a little log cabin on the edge of the Big Woods of Wisconsin. Four-year-old Laura lives in the little house with her Pa, her Ma, her sisters Mary and Carrie, and their trusty dog, Jack.
Pioneer life is sometimes hard, since the family must grow or catch all their own food as they get ready for the cold winter. But it is also exciting as Laura and her folks celebrate Christmas with homemade toys and treats, do the spring planting, bring in the harvest, and make their first trip into town. And every night they are safe and warm in their little house, with the happy sound of Pa’s fiddle sending Laura and her sisters off to sleep.
And so begins Laura Ingalls Wilder’s beloved story of a pioneer girl and her family. The nine Little House books have been cherished by generations of readers as both a unique glimpse into America’s frontier past and a heartwarming, unforgettable story.
