• Retailing board games from That Pink Shop and Kitsch Mitch in Kettering and Vintage Guru in Northampton.

This post is a reminder to all those who find the heat too much and prefer to be indoor kids! ☀️

Why not get yourself a board game to play with the fam for half term? Enjoy some lovely (non-screen based) family interaction while sheltering from the sun 😄

Check out our fine selection at Kitsch Mitch in The Yards and slightly smaller selection at That Pink Shop, on the High Street.

Oh and we’ve restocked with Mystery Dice at Kitsch Mitch!
