Great Xmas gift for enquiring young minds

Brenda and Neil from Kerikeri District

Qb (quby) is an activity toy I first designed in 1987 for my young boys - it was a favourite toy for many years. They are both now successful engineers!
A few years ago while living in Wellington I updated the design and sold them successfully in a local craft shop.
Now I have moved to Kerikeri and unpacked my stock and would like to sell these off before I start a new batch.
Qb is made from all new materials, the interior is a 14cm square block of foam with a bell that is impossible for little hands to get to.
The bright fabric is 100% cotton and all features are triple sewn to ensure Qb will safely give years of challenge for your budding genius.
Qb is the quality toy that keeps them entertained for years.
Suitable for children from 18 months to 5 years.
Use a damp microfibre cloth to clean.
Send me a message if you would like to purchase a classic Qb.

Price: $35

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
