Just launching in New Zealand, Sudo Kid's clothing will keep stylish little nippers warm this winter with their unique Melbourne ‘cool'. The edgy and fun collections are designed for girls and boys that want to stand out from the crowd.

Sudo childrenswear is for age's two to ten and includes a huge range of innovative designs that will have kids racing for the wardrobe each morning.

It seems that almost everything can be rented online these days and one enterprising Texas Mom decided that toys should be no different to films or handbags.

Frustrated by a room full of toys that her infant twins were no longer interested in, Lori Lamb Pope expected to find somewhere to rent toys from on the internet.

To her surprise she couldn’t find anyone and so the idea for Baby Plays was born – an internet business that lets parents receive 4 or 6 toys every month through the post. And with all the toys ready-to-play (no assembly needed) the business has proved to be a real blessing for busy parents hard-pressed to find the time to scour toy shops.

Like many women, Elaine Cato often wondered why looking good for an evening out was always a no-win choice between traditional bras with a back-strap and backless bras that never worked properly.

Soon after the birth of her second daughter in 1998, Elaine was all set for a New Years party and needed a little support for her bust. But her desire to wear a black, backless dress for the party would be frustrated by having to choose between backless bras that didn’t really do the job or accept having to wear the all-too-obvious conventional bra with backstrap.

Never one to accept defeat, Elaine set about developing a backless bra that would do the job properly. Determined to alter one of her bras, the Nashville Mom used her own basic sewing skills to create a backless bra with five configurations.

Who can forget Roark McMaster's pitch for £40k in October 2006. To be invested in his little green friend who had more than a passing resemblance to ... well, we better not say although it did leave all the Dragons in fits of laughter.

Roark was looking for the investment in exchange for up to 40% equity in Q-Top.

The product itself - a green, ribbed funnel shape plastic cover - was designed to protect and preserve cucumbers and lemons better than cling film or tin foil.

In October 2007, Polly Marsh and Helen Wooldridge brought their childrens bath-time product Cuddle Dry into the Den and asked the Dragons for £100,000 in return for a 15% stake in their baby bath towel range.

The towel is like an apron leaving both hands free to dry the baby.
