Tea to keep the kids warm at night
The nights have become downright frosty which means I'm scrambling to see if any of the kids' pajamas from last winter still fit them; given that they seem to grow a foot a year, it's likely that they'll need new threads. Some of the nicest new cold-weather sleepwear I've been eying for them comes from CMP fave Tea Collection.

Their Suite Sleeper pajama sets are made of super-soft, brushed-on-the-inside pima cotton; with its natural fibers, the kids won't feel like they are sweltering under petro-chemicals. And with this kind of thickness, they won't wear out at the knees before Christmas as I've come to expect with the cheaper brands. (No, these are not cheap.)

No cheesy licensed characters here -- just cool Asian-inspired designs like Cherry Blossom, Origami and the very cool Dragon. Plus I know my kids will appreciate that the pajamas come in two pieces, and if you've ever had to shiver your way out of a one-piece sleeper for a midnight bathroom break, you understand too. -Christina
