Shopping at BKM
your one-stop local shop for everything babies and kids
What to expect
You will find just about everything for boys and girls and all with huge savings as families recycle gently used items that their kids have outgrown.
Our Stallholders are Mums and Dads who have chosen to pass on pre loved items including clothing, shoes, toys, puzzles, books, prams, bikes, cots, highchairs as well as other nursery and maternity items instead of adding them to landfill giving shoppers the opportunity to snap up many of the popular baby and kids brands for a fraction of the retail price in sizes ranging from newborn to tween.
Plus at every event you’ll have the opportunity to browse a selection of small business stalls showcasing their unique new/handmade goods and services often with exclusive Market Day specials!
No two markets are the same with new sellers at each market, you will discover something different at every event!
Our Top 3 Reasons for Buying Pre Loved for Your Kids!
1. Affordability – preloved items are generally sold at a fraction of the cost of new so it’s a great way to save money and buy items you may not normally be able to afford.
2. Sustainability – recycling kids clothing and toys will reduce the amount of items that end up in landfill.
3. Quality – preloved clothing has generally been worn and washed multiple times and proven durability and quality.
