What makes Easter even more fun? If you said “a colouring contest!” You’d be 100% right. (Especially if you jumped up and said it really loud.) That’s why we at Pebble have decided to have one of our very own, starting…. Now!

Click here to download the PDF, and have your little one colour and enter it in-store by Tuesday April 10, 2012. Two winners (one for kids age 0-3 and one for kids 4-6) will receive $25 Pebble Gift Certificates. Winners will be selected the following day, but everyone who enters will receive a little something as a thank you. It’s Easter after all!

Oh — and don’t forget to include your child’s name and age, plus your phone # or email. Do your best, have fun, happy colouring and Happy Easter!

We’re having a party! (Plus a store-wide sale)

Pebble is turning two! And what’s a birthday without a party? Join us Thursday, July 29 from 10AM – 8PM as we celebrate two years of fantastic customers, great local suppliers and new friends. We’re talking lemonade, mini cupcakes and a whole bunch of fun stuff, including:

•  Red Fish Kids Clothing designer Lorraine Kitsos will be joining us to offer gorgeous
limited edition and one-of-a-kind items – all locally made, of course.
• Cici Art Factory artist Liz Clay will be on site from 4pm – 8pm customizing
her prints for free — and giving away a pack of Cici gift cards with the purchase of any canvas print.
• Giveaways! Two lucky shoppers will win $50 pebble gift certificates for attending our event.
• And just in case you missed it, our first-ever store-wide sale!

Not to mention balloons, face painting and much more. So come on and join us for the fun! And if you have any questions, just give us a shout.

Hello friends, neighbors & fans! You may have heard of the popular local blog, kitsilano.ca. They are currently doing an end-of-year ‘Best of Kitsilano’ online poll, and Pebble is among the nominees for best baby store. So we were wondering if you wouldn’t mind, while your Christmas turkey is digesting or you are busy psyching yourself up for NYE festivities, if you’d be so kind as to vote for us. Just select the ‘Best of Shopping’ link, of course!



Give them full credit for setting up a simple, private poll that’s finished in 20 seconds or less. Seriously – time it yourself. Just don’t forget to vote for Pebble.

Just a reminder that even Canada Post’s most generous deadlines are fast approaching (or as they refer to them, “Suggested Mailing Dates”). You can check out the entire list over here, but these are the most immediate ones:



Air Parcel to USA - Friday, Dec 4

XPress Post to Europe, Asia, Australia & NZ – Monday, Dec 7

Regular Parcel within Canada – Friday, Dec 11



And of course, if your parcel doesn’t arrive at your loved ones’ door before Christmas, you know it probably won’t show up until about a week after. To some people that matters while to others, meh! Not so much. It’s the thought that counts after all, right?

But if you happen to be one of those people for whom it matters, and you happen to still be searching for that perfect gift, we know a great children’s store that will do everything possible to help you make sure it arrives on time.

Happy 24 Days Until Christmas!

We wanted to advise you about a safety recall of Natursutten apple and fish teethers. Pebble will be providing store credit for returned teethers to December 11, 2009.  
Please feel free to contact us at info@pebblebaby.com should you have any questions.
For more information, please see the recall notice below. (Click the image to enlarge.)

Favourite local blog Kitsilano.ca has posted another of their regular ‘most followed Kits businesses on Twitter‘ listings, with Pebble steadfastly holding on to the #4 spot for retail businesses. That’s if you actually count Lulu Lemon, who tops the list, as a Kitsilano business. Which we don’t. Their head office is in East Van, they have stores all over the world and it’s not like the Kits LlL store is their flagship or anything.



So that actually makes us the #3 most-followed Kitsilano-based retail business on Twitter. Hooray! Bring on the bronze! This must be how the fourth place athlete feels when the gold medal winner gets disqualified for banned substances. Or bribing the judges. Or… never mind.

Well, it’s taken at least three months (more like six), but our e-commerce website is officially launched and live!
