Kids love their Watershed gifts. Some are covered in African fabrics, while others are formed out of recycled flip-flops, crocheted in wool or carved in wood. ​

The toys and clothes sold at Watershed are as precious as the little ones they're meant for.​

Visit Wild Thing Africa, Shongololo, Mamita & Me, SoJo and aLoveSupreme for all the best local children's products and kids' clothing from Cape Town.​

A group of giraffes is called a tower.

Or is it a herd? Perhaps it’s a journey of giraffes, or even a kaleidoscope? If you ask the question: “what is a group of giraffes called?”, you might get a different answer every time.
There are several collective nouns for a group of giraffes. These terms tie in with both the giraffe’s physical appearance and its social behaviour. They also tell us a lot about these intriguing animals.
