Turn your kid’s object of affection into an object d’art
My son had a stuffed elephant named Tussle that went with him everywhere. In fact, he never knew it, but there were actually two Tussles in constant rotation, just in case one went missing. Tussle has long since moved to the “big happy farm where stuffed animals...
Where Preppy meets Crunchy
Biff? Yes, Buffy? Look at these darling shoes, wouldn’t they be super for Skip? Okay, that’s probably not a conversation that will go on in your house, but it’s hard to suppress your inner prep when you see the madras uppers of the new Morgan and...
Greek yogurt that’s made for kids, but will most likely be devoured by parents
I’m a huge fan of Greek yogurt, and apparently I’m not alone. It has a creamier texture and the perfect hint of tang, and it also happens to have a ton of calcium and protein making it a staple in my fridge for a healthy meal on the go. And who’s on...
An auction to raise money for Haiti. Get something great while doing something great
What happens when some of the most creative bloggers set their minds to raising money for Haiti? Only an auction filled with incredible artwork, handmade toys, clothing, and plenty more we’d like to own even without knowing all the proceeds are going to a cause...

There are lots of reasons to buy organic. From cucumbers to clothes, I believe that the less processing and chemicals involved in my day to day life, the better. And, just as important as what things are made from is also how they’re made. Which is one of...
An app that makes living in NYC even cooler, if that’s possible
Ironically, in a city that seems to have more of everything, any NYC parent or visiting tourist will tell your horror stories of being unable to find a changing table or a way to get from the uptown subway platform to the crosstown one without dragging a sleeping...
Write appointments inside the lines, and then color outside of them
Like a field covered in a fresh blanket of snow or the top of a just-opened jar of peanut butter, there is something so exciting to me about having a fresh beginning. So I am giddy every January when I get to crack out a new calendar, all unmarked and clean, just...
Adorable t-shirts – this time, it’s personal
There is no shortage of adorable graphic kids’ t-shirts out there (you’ve probably seen one or two here), but what I really love about Hopscotch Tees collection of customized tees is that they don’t just put your child’s name on the front; they...
