This week in The Loop we celebrate Benjamin Brush's arrival on Kickstarter with a round-up of all things toothy. We revisit the adorable photo story archives of My Milk Toof, watch as artist Cristiam Ramos paints portraits with toothpaste and we play a silly game of Crocodile Dentist!

This week in The Loop we marvel at Melissa Kaseman's gorgeous photography project, Preschool Pocket Treasure, in which she documents the contents of her three year old son's pockets. We also step back and appreciate KITRA's excellent large scale murals and environmental installations and we contemplate following Handmade Charlotte's instructions on how to make a DIY 'Off The Grid' play house!

This week in The Loop we take a virtual trip to The Color Factory in San Francisco, give the thumbs up to a toolkit that helps kids establish good habits and positive relationships with food and we thank designer Tsuyoshi Miyazaki for making such joyful playthings!

This week in The Loop we get ready to go back to school with encouraging words from Rose Blake's new book, Marcus Walters' new colour-in kit bags and a little selection of fun stationery and accessories.

This week in The Loop we make toy breakfast with Kid O, we feel jolly just looking at Antonio Ladrillo's latest kids' picture book and we pretend that we've downloaded the Professor Astro Cat apps for our kids (when we're actually rather fond of it ourselves!).

This week in The Loop we do some bedtime role play with Sago Mini, we take a look at the cutest drinks packaging EVER and we get set for some colourful messy play + rainbow sponge art!

This week in The Loop, Tom takes a real life trip to New York and visits Lucy Sparrow's hand-stitched bodega, we play Taco Truck in the back garden with Famous OTO and we accidentally steal the kids' Loopimal music app because it is simply way too cute to resist.

This week in The Loop we get excited about visiting Craig & Karl's latest art installation, we listen to The Happy Song by Imogen Heap - the only song to be written specifically to make babies happy - AND we take a dreamy look at Gordon Reid's digitally rendered 3D sculptures.

This week in The Loop we serve up a nice big bundle of creativity and colourful cuteness. We've got an ace new stationery range by Ola, a glorious David Hockney art activity book by Rose Blake and we get ready to celebrate creativity with Donna Wilson's new magazine, MYO!

This week in The Loop we SPLAT! stuff with artist Jon Burgerman, we scroll through an Instagram account dedicated to snazzy public transport upholstery and we get googly-eyed over a fancy wrist watch that tells the time by colour gradient.
