FEED plus Target: a collaboration we can get behind.

by Eva Glettner | Doing Good

I’m a big fan of the FEED mission, which sells products to directly feed schoolchildren both at home through Feeding America and abroad via the UN’s World Food Program. Whenever I carry my FEED bag, I’m reminded of the good it did. So I’m...

Respect and protect rainforests with supercool reusable water bottles

by Eva Glettner | Food + Recipes

I’m a hardcore fan of SIGG reusable water bottles. They’re seriously durable–and I know, because my kids put them through the wringer, dragging them from school to skatepark. Now I’m in love with a new collaboration between SIGG and Cuipo (a...

Rock n roll tees for kids so authentic, you can almost smell the overpriced concert beer on them.

by Eva Glettner | Kid Fashion

The Red Hot Chili Peppers have a way of taking me back in time. As a parent, I play Under the Bridge for my kids and encourage them to appreciate how the music affects them. Cooler still, Flea, RHCP’s bassist, is a big supporter of children in the arts and a...

Say cheese. This fun LEGO Polaroid “camera” has us grinning.

by Eva Glettner | DIY

Summertime is serious LEGO time around here. The kids and I are always looking for novel ways to enhance LEGO play. So I’m really digging this new LEGO hack (meaning it’s not an official LEGO product, but it’s officially fun). This groovy...

Wooden bowls + color = fabulousness

by Eva Glettner | Food + Recipes

I have a special place in my heart for wooden bowls. My Eastern European grandmother used to make these beautiful and elaborate green salads and serve them to us in small wooden bowls, so I’ve been looking for bowls that remind me of my sweet Bubbie ever...

Super baby redux

by Eva Glettner | Baby, Kid Fashion

There is something intensely satisfying about putting a small baby in a superhero cape. Maybe it’s because babies aren’t particularly heroic; who has time to save the universe while attached to a breast? Instead of an actual cape, try a hero onesie...

Adorable new lunchboxes for kids that are recycled. But you’d never know it.

by Eva Glettner | School Gear

I take lunchbox shopping verrrrry seriously. I need a durable, reusable lunch pack for the kids that is insulated, looks great, is eco-friendly, and stays closed (so the leftover crumbs don’t take up residence in my car). Take it from a woman who just took on a...

Punk rock shorts for stylin’ skater boys

by Eva Glettner | Kid Fashion

In order to perfect the punk rock, skater-boi look, a Ramones shirt will no longer cut it. My kids have been jonesing for trendy chain wallets like their friends at the skate park. The problem? Teachers don’t exactly dig the boys playing around with their...
