L’ORANGE

Shopping for kids has never been more fun. At L’Orange, you are spoilt for choice with toxin- free edible furniture, soft toys, colourful bunk beds, piggy banks and accessories. The furniture has rounded edges to ensure minimal damage in case of rough play; for girls, there are stiletto- shaped landline phones while the boys can have their fill of quirk with crystal- studded skullshaped clock dials.

Owner Roheena Nagpal helps you design the room of your choice, selecting wall papers, picking the right beds and linens and even accessories like a study table. There’s something for all age groups from toddlers to teenagers.

Nagpal urges parents to design spaces that “reflect the child’s personality”. The furniture, which comes in bright hues of orange, sunshine yellow, red and green, is safe even if children lick or chew on them.

The store has interesting bunk beds, linen featuring popular cartoon characters, also comfortable study tables and dressers. Check out the aisles lined with racks full of colourful, glitzy accessories— cola cans that are actually fixed phones, piggybanks in various shapes, mugs, pencil stands and shim- mery phones. There’s ample variety for every age group from toddlers to tweens since Nagpal encourages parents to change the décor as the child’s interests evolve with age.

The store also doubles up as a space for young children to showcase their talent. Over the past year, L’orange has hosted art exhibitions by teens to give budding artists a platform.
