Tan-je-reen Design

Sometimes when Little Music Man goes to his Play and Learn class, he gets really excited seeing his classmates and ends up accidentally running into them and they fall down, or he tries to hug them, but ends up pushing them so they fall down. Fortunately, the kids just get up and laugh and the parents say “it’s okay,” and laugh too. Even though Little Music Man doesn't mean to push them down, I can’t help but feel bad whenever it happens. If it should happen again, I’ll be prepared thanks to the “Naughty Kid Notecards” from Tan-je-reen Design.

According to the website, “Tan-je-reen was an idea of Melanie Gaffney, owner, for years. Her fascination with stationery turned into an obsession when she started planning her very own wedding in 2003…When Melanie and her husband Sean decided to have a baby, the need for unique and creative designs for invitations and announcements started all over again. It was important to Melanie that her son Mason have stationery that stood out and is as special as he is…After the wedding and Mason's birth, requests from family and friends to design and create their invitations and stationery for all occasions started to pour in. Thus Tan-je-reen was born.”

I was fortunate to receive an 8-pack of the Naughty Kid Note Cards (ARV $13.50), which contained 2 each of the following cards: Sorry my kid broke your (fill in the blank), Sorry my kid pushed yours, Sorry my kid took your kid’s toy, and Sorry my kid bit yours.

Little Music Man has been involved in many situations where all of these note cards would come in handy, except for the “my kid bit yours” card—he’s never bitten anyone (at least, not that I know of).

Aren’t these cards just the cutest idea? I know the recipient would get a good laugh after receiving one of these fun note cards, and it’s a nice way to apologize, even though the situation may have been completely innocent.

The Naughty Kid Note Cards are thoughtful and amusing, and I have a feeling that all 8 of my note cards will be used up real soon…
