Sodura was established in January of 2011 with one goal: To provide functional, well-made modern furniture. Sodura is made up of parents just like you who want furniture for their child’s room that has style, and is still comfortable. In other words, to be modern and have style doesn’t mean that it looks like it was made for the Jetson’s. You’ll see that this furniture is practical, functional, and of the highest quality on the market, and that’s backed up by a great guarantee.
Sodura uses eco-friendly products in all of their furniture, so no lead based paint will be found in the product. Water-based finishes are used, which are low in VOC’s and are non-flammable and non-toxic. The wood has no formaldehyde added and so does the glue, which means there won’t be any harmful fumes coming from the product over time. Sodura is based in Louisville, KY where all of our products are proudly made.
About the Table and Stools Set
The table and stools set is a fun little play set for kids and parents, too. That sounds a little funny that it would be fun for parents too, but it really is a cool little set that won’t look awkward when it’s mixed in with adult furniture. Most kids furniture has a cartoon look and feel, but the Aero set is more like modern furniture that is miniature. Kids can have their play furniture right in the living room or family room and it will add to the interior design instead of distracting from it. We all know that kids like to have their own special place, but they also want that special place to be close to their parents.
This set is designed to be used for coloring, snacking, or even a play date with games and Lego’s. The set comes with two stools but it’s big enough for 4 toddlers and still has enough room for coloring books and crayons.
Colors:
Blonde – Natural wood tones
Whitewash – It is white, semi transparent so that you can still tell it’s a wooden table/stool
Cocoa – dark chocolate brown
Dimensions
Table: 26″L x 26″W x 26″H
Stool 13″L x 13″W x 12″H

One of the toughest things these days is to know which books to buy for the kids – this holiday season I’ve got some help from my friendly little elves at The Scholastic Store – with some top picks!
Clifford loves to care. He shows he cares–about his neighbors, his family, and his park–and everyone cares about Clifford! Perfect for the youngest puppy fans, this simple story is done in classic Clifford style and also has a padded cover!
From the eyes of a baby penguin the world is a great big place. The sky so high, the ocean so deep, and the mountains so steep–all these things are magnificent from it’s point of view. But in the eyes of it’s mother–this little penguin is the biggest, most important thing in the world! This beautiful story is highlighted with foil on the cover and throughout.
Join Santa’s wild ride in this soon-to-be Christmas classic! When the harness to Santa’s sleigh breaks mid-flight, Dasher, Dancer, and the rest of the reindeer gang fly off into the night…leaving Santa and all of his presents stranded! Who will guide Santa’s sleigh and save Christmas now?

If you should ever get a rhinoceros for a pet, you’re in for a surprise. It won’t chase a ball. Or a stick. Or a frisbie. In fact, according to the experts, a rhinoceros does only two things: pop balloons and poke holes in kites. But don’t be discouraged. As you’ll discover in Jon Agee’s hilarious picture book, rhinoceroses can do more–so much more–than that!
The cows, pigs, and sheep have been waiting for Cousin Edward to visit Hawthorne Farm. The fun is never ending as Edward tries his best to milk the cows, tend the sheep, feed the pigs, plant the garden, and much more. It is truly a day that Edward will never forget!

VTech and research firm Toluna conducted a survey that took a pulse on holiday season attitudes and behaviors, and found that:
Parents want to get everything done and still have time to enjoy the season, but moms (33 percent) and dads (32 percent) say that find that balance is a challenge and causes stress. In fact, 48 percent of moms said if they had an extra set of hands to get things done, they’d spend more time with family and friends.
Shoppers are still feeling the effects of the economy, with nearly half of respondents ranking having “more money to give presents” as their top wish during the holiday season. In addition, 47 percent of consumers said not having enough money is the most stressful thing to worry about during the holidays.
A special moment with family and friends is all consumers want for the holidays. The holidays are known for great food and special traditions, so it’s no surprise that consumers embrace the season for its togetherness. Survey respondents ranked a holiday meal (24 percent) as the No. 1 thing not to miss during the holidays, followed by a special family tradition (22 percent). The holiday spirit rings strongly, as the overwhelming majority of consumers don’t want to miss out on any seasonal festivities with only 13 percent of consumers saying “bah humbug” to holiday cheer.

Functional leather basket

Beverage warmer
$100 Staples gift card
