Barbie honors real-life healthcare heroes and wow, more stories like this please.

Barbie honors real-life healthcare heroes and wow, more stories like this please.

by Liz Gumbinner | Toys + Playthings, Doing Good

If the Barbie #ThankYouHeroes initiative isn’t the epitome of our times, in the best possible way, I don’t know what is. Barbie has added all kinds of famous role models to their collection in recent years, and now they’re honoring some global women...

This non-profit creates absolutely free, Instagram-worthy room makeovers for adopted kids and foster families

by Kate Etue | Doing Good, Art + Decor

Several months ago I stumbled on the work of the non-profit group Bloom Family Designs on a friend and fellow adoptive-mom’s Instagram feed. This organization creates beautifully designed rooms for adopted and foster kids — at absolutely no cost to the families....
Why I’m supporting these brands and their cool Pride month products and collaborations.

Why I’m supporting these brands and their cool Pride month products and collaborations.

by Liz Gumbinner | Style + Beauty, Doing Good, Living

I had a long talk with my (avidly LGBTQ+ supporting) teens this week about the overlap between Pride Month and brands. On one hand, there’s an argument about the “corporatization” of Pride Month, and the rainbow washing of products. On the other...
What was the Tulsa Race Massacre? Resources to help teach kids (and adults) of all ages

What was the Tulsa Race Massacre? Resources to help teach kids (and adults) of all ages

by Kate Etue | Doing Good, Kids

May 31, 1921, marks one of the darkest days in America’s history. And yet the Tulsa Race Massacre isn’t an event I ever learned in school — and unfortunately most kids today don’t either. The Burning of Black Wall Street can be a hard day to...
7 incredible aspects of The American Families Plan you may not have caught. It’s a big f*cking deal (to paraphrase a certain current president)

7 incredible aspects of The American Families Plan you may not have caught. It’s a big f*cking deal (to paraphrase a certain current president)

by Liz Gumbinner | Kids, Doing Good

Watching President Biden describe some of the details of his American Families Plan this week — well, it’s made me emotional. It’s so much of what we’ve hoped for. And frankly, so much of what our own parents and even grandparents have hoped...
Create to Stop Hate: The online auction 100% supporting the work of Stop AAPI Hate.

Create to Stop Hate: The online auction 100% supporting the work of Stop AAPI Hate.

by Kate Etue | Doing Good, Living

We have all been just devastated by the increase in hate crimes against the AAPI community. Even if you’ve avoided the horrific videos, from Atlanta to San Francisco to NYC, surely by now you’ve seen the #StopAsianHate social media posts and hashtags. In...

We love this jewelry supporting AAPI communities and helping to #StopAsianHate

by Liz Gumbinner | Style + Beauty, Doing Good, Mother's Day Gifts

For years, we’ve been covering the beautiful work of Peggy Li. I mean, we’re talking years and years. I just adore her affordable jewelry, which always makes its way onto the arms of the rich, famous, and highly televised. I mean, who wouldn’t take a...
Meaningful actions for International Women’s Day. It’s more than wearing a “boss girl” t-shirt.

Meaningful actions for International Women’s Day. It’s more than wearing a “boss girl” t-shirt.

by Liz Gumbinner | Doing Good

Today on International Women’s Day, I’m feeling more hopeful than I have been for a while. For the past four years, it’s been rough, and now here we are, with our first ever woman elected into the White House, hope for some important new legislation...
How to help Texas right now: Millions of people need us.

How to help Texas right now: Millions of people need us.

by Liz Gumbinner | Doing Good

The stories and photos I’m seeing in the wake of the Texas storm, some from close friends, are shocking. Right now, all 254 counties in Texas have been hit, with 2.5  million Texans still without power at the time of publishing. Many of them are are living...

6 cool ways to support indie bookstores right now. They need it…and we need them.

by Caroline Siegrist | Entertainment + Media, Doing Good, Tips + Tricks

I’d like to put in a plug for supporting indie bookstores right now, even if it takes a little extra effort. I’m seeing a lot of people trying to get through this looooong February (what’s that even about?) by recommitting to reading. I mean hey,...

12 acts of kindness you can do with your kids over the holiday break, to make the season about more than presents.

by Christina Refford | Doing Good, Tips + Tricks

Acts of kindness have never felt more important than they do this year. And since kinds are naturally inclined toward kindness, we wanted to give this post a bump this year. Because when Christmas is over, Santa is back at the North Pole, the toys are all unwrapped,...

by Cool Mom Team | Spawned Podcast, Doing Good, Health, Fitness + Wellbeing

If there’s one thing we’re all talking about right now, and maybe even tearing up about (if you’re Liz), it’s the long-awaited arrival of the Covid-19 vaccines. So we invited the most perfect guest to sit down with us: vaccine expert, NYU...
