As we step into the most sparkly, joy-filled time of year, we want to pause and say thank you. Thank you for choosing to shop small, thank you for cheering us on, and thank you for letting Big Dreams be part of your family’s festive season.
December is always a whirlwind of costumes, gifts, glitter, school concerts, and last-minute surprises… and this year we’re stretching ourselves even further to be here for our community — near and far — with as much convenience, warmth, and flexibility as we can sprinkle around.
More Hours, More Heart 💛
We know it’s a juggle this time of year, so we’re opening our doors wider and longer. Whether you’re dashing in between school pickups, visiting Northcote for the Christmas markets, or planning a special trip from interstate, we want finding your magic to feel easy.
Need help choosing sensory or educational gifts?
NDIS support workers, educators and specialists please reach out anytime. We love supporting the work you do, and for approved educators we can offer trade pricing for bulk orders.
Have a question? A special request?

If our standard hours don’t suit you, we can also arrange private appointments outside trading hours. Just reach out & we’ll do our best to make it happen.
And to our beautiful wholesale customers: orders for 2025 are now officially closed. We wish our fellow retailers a joyful, abundant Christmas trade season ahead.
