Rio : toys, magazines and kids

I was pretty impressed by a the store called Enfim Infant. Almost hidden on the third floor of Shopping da Gavea, a rather unattractive mall in Leblon, this little toy store has an amazing selection of wooden toys (almost all) made by Brazilian artisans. Puppets, reversible dolls, doll houses, trucks, all handmade in high quality standards, with nice finishes and vibrant colours.

I found Naif Brazil at the newsstand; another great issue, with lots of travel inspirations.

I saw a few fun kids in the streets, and I was lucky to capture these two stylish young ladies, so Brazilian to me.
