Boutique Australian brand specializing
in innovative and creative gifts
for children ages 1–8 years.
Two mothers living in Bangkok, with
three children each, found they
were often struggling to track down
the type of children’s gifts they felt
good about giving. Tired of searching
for tasteful yet fun gifts at reasonable
prices, they started to distribute Tiger
Tribe products in Thailand.

Sweet, modern jewelry designs for little
girls, inspired by travel
Carla’s idea to start a line of jewelry started when she was an expat
in Beijing, which she calls the “dream
place” for imagining and creating.
As a French expat currently in Bangkok, she designs and sells bracelets,
necklaces, and jewelry pouches.
Carla’s world travels are constant
inspiration, with her designs often
including bits and pieces from China,
Thailand, and France. See her Facebook page for more information
and to get in touch.

Tiger Tribe products entertain
and educate kids while allowing
their imaginations to run wild. From
wooden box sets to vintage tea sets
and even a portable kite, you’re sure
to find something ideal for your child
at Tiger Tribe. They also design toys
that are ideal for travel and café play,
such as magnetic playbooks, which
are brilliant for expat children who often travel.
